Hi. I'm having trouble getting an appraisal for a watch my uncle gave me.
It's a Baume & Mercier, 18K gold, square, white face, roman numerals (with a gold XII) and an inset date at bottom. the model number on back is MV045144, 4260813. the face is flawless, faint scratches on the gold. worn on special occasions. not original leather wrist band.
please help, or suggest more options. I eventually would like to sell it.

sorry it took so long to get a picture. my camera isn't very good, and i couldn't really get a decent picture. sorry.
but here is the 18K gold Baume & Mercier watch as described above. it is previously worn, but there isn't a scratch on the face.
Thanks again.

Is it a mechanical watch or a quartz watch?

If it's quartz probably around $300-350 strictly based on gold content, if it is mechanical, perhaps $200-300 more. These are just guesses.
