Looks like a lovely watch. My guess is going to be $4500, assuming it's checks out and has a chronometer grade movement. I don't have specific market info on the watch, so it's just a guess.

Hello and thank you for taking the time to look at the watch
It is indeed in pristine condition
I sent it on consignment to Crown & Caliber last year with an asking price of $ 4800
They checked it and made sure it was in working condition and as described before listing it for sale
Unfortunately their asking price was like $6800 and it did not sell
Maybe a collector would be interested in the future " without a middle man "
Heritage Auctions gave me an estimate of 5 to 6 K so my pricing [and yours] was not off the mark
Regards
Herman

I looked some more at the pictures and it is indeed a chronometer. Very nice example! I think a realistic price to an end user is under $5k but again, this is a gut feeling estimate, not one based in prior sales, etc. I have much more realistic consignment terms than C & C should you be based in the USA. Thanks.
