: The seller bought the watch from a authorized dealer july 2008 but
: needs to sell to get cash. Is this model worth $1.840 or can it
: be obtained for a better price through trusted ebay auctions?

I am suspicious of sellers who have held a watch for a month and want to sell to raise cash.

Since different models have greater or lesser desirability in the preowned market, it is difficult to say.

Check Ebay completed auctions if you want to know what a fair price is, especially since that is the alternative.

Ebay or this individual remember: buy the seller. Know who you are dealing with and the reputation, how others they have dealt with regard them and how other transactions completed.
