In Response To: Reasonable price on a mint FIFA Speedmaster? ()


Hi Andy,

that's a difficult question to answer. They don't come up that often. I saw one last year that was listed with a "Buy it Now" price of 8000 Euro's. Needless to say it didn't get a bid.

I'm not sure there is a "right" price. I think it's up to each of "us" collectors to decide what it is worth in "Our" collection.

I'd like one & am still kicking myself for missing the black PVD chronostop based watch for 400 Euro's a few weeks ago.

I reckon a good 1045 based FIFA watch has to be worth at least as much as a "normal" 1045 watch. I'd actually value it higher , because the rarity factor.

AFAIK a mint "grail" would fetch around $4000 - $5000. that's a 1045 based watch . Is it worth that much ? Well the market just isn't there, so I'd say no. But a "normal" 1045 will fetch $1500 - $2500 so add some to that.

Who knows, with threads like this & the Antiquorum auction, maybe we'll make a market for these watches & the values will increase dramatically.

For those of you not sure what the FIFA watch looks like, here is the Antiquorom picture.
