I don't know for sure. Ladies watches to me, are almost always hard to sell. The dial on your is redone, so guessing, maybe $200-300? What are you thoughts? By the way, the case is not all steel when it says "FOND Acier Inoxidable". FOND = back, meaning only the case back is stainless.

I dont disagree with your number...however appraisal value vs. a selling price will vary. Is you number an appraisal value or an estimate of a sell price. No question ladies watches are hard to sell...but this watch is rare and hard to replace. The watch keeps good time and although demand may be limitied, I might suggest supply is more limited.

Sales estimate...appraisals in the insurance sense are most often fantasy figures used for 'replacement costs' i.e. you want to buy a new ladies Rolex to replace an old one that was stolen.

Neat rolex! You can sell that watch for at least 500 euro or more if you are patient. Someone in Germany or Switzerland would love it. Even with the redone dial. If it had the original, it would fetch more! If you sell in the US you will generally get 30 to 40% less.
