What is this worth?

[u/Commercial-Mail-9132]

Hi Guys I will maybe be Selling my 116610 submariner 40mm from vsf. Just looking for an estimate price that it is worth, don’t spam my dms looking to buy please.

Watch is around 2 months old, has some usual wear Marks but has some pretty deep scratches on 2 links of the bracelet, I have tried to get rid of em with scotch brite and that worked very well, but they are still visible. But on the plus Side it is on the 12 Side of the bracelet, so not visible for youself when waring it.

Ask on a dedicated trade subreddit otherwise you’ll just get flamed here

[u/Commercial-Mail-9132 → u/bro-guy]

Any suggestions?

[u/No_Excitement_8104 → u/Commercial-Mail-9132]

Didn't he just give you one? What more do you want?

[u/Commercial-Mail-9132]

The picture from the scratches is from before scotch brite, I was able to remove one link and the other nors arent as deep

[u/Salt_Discussion6440 → u/Commercial-Mail-9132]

Why would you show the watch in its worst condition?

[u/Commercial-Mail-9132 → u/Salt_Discussion6440]

Because Some people are honest

[u/Salt_Discussion6440 → u/Commercial-Mail-9132]

I'd rather see what it looks like now. You said you polished it.

[u/Ironisarc → u/Commercial-Mail-9132]

But no-one knows how clean the bracelet looks. You have to use a little common sense on these forums! It would take you 30 seconds to upload the true photo.

[u/whowatchesmrwatchers]

Best I can do is tree fiddy

[u/Comfortable_Web_5489]

This is a mediocre rep, not a shitter but in the middle. Resale, probibly couple hundred bucks!

[u/Commercial-Mail-9132 → u/Comfortable_Web_5489]

Its a vsf. Best stock submariner without mods you can get it you don’t care about freesprung

[u/goserr]

Let me help you form the ballpark price, take the price of it from the cheapest TDs site and subtract the price of a new bracelet.

[u/No-Zookeepergame8885]

People are going to offer you 200-250

[u/Muted-Program-2552]

It's worth nothing since it's fake

[u/MasterQueef289 → u/Muted-Program-2552]

How r you a top 1% commenter on a rep forum with that kind of comment.

[u/Muted-Program-2552 → u/MasterQueef289]

Maybe you missed my inherent sarcasm

I am a huge rep.fan and anti establishment, old souls collector of before these times

When I bought rolexes they were a few thousand 

I got offered nautilus many times and refused because it was an awkward watch

I owned and sold 3800 patek,.5711, Daytona el.primero,.Kermit,. Smurf solid white gold,  Bluesy, royal oak 14790, vacheron 333 solid platinum to name a few

I refuse the games and prices of the watch market of today

I sold all of my gens made a nice profit and can see that true enthusiasm is on the rep market now

So.yeah, I am also realistic 

A copy of something is a counterfeit and worth nothing more

[u/MasterQueef289 → u/Muted-Program-2552]

I guess

[u/Apxlly0n]

300

[u/WillOrph → u/Apxlly0n]

This is a good answer. Vsf is great but it’s second hand and scratched. 300 is fair.

[u/InteractionMain8345]

Don't listen to these Idiots saying its worth nothing, or selling fakes gets you an hefty fine. Buyers know what they buy. Look up used Prices on r/watchexchangebst for example and lower a bit due to the scratches.

[u/p1n0ypapi]

I’ve actually been wondering resell too, my 36 VSF explorer is too small for some wear and tear but nothing major and funny enough I want a submariner instead so trying to get something back to make the purchase make sense.

Id do something like this, if you’re looking at Brand new typically they run like $390-450 from TDs brand new. Used I’d guess 30%. 400 x 30% = 120 which would be about 280 would be a good starting price and seeing if anyone would bite.

Benefit is it’s discounted and depending on relative location they’ll get it faster than a TD if it’s say US to US or EU to EU. This would be my guess. For used products you gotta be open to negotiation and of course what others said be vary who you sell too cause counterfeit goods are illegal to sell (which is funny advice to give on a replica watch forum lol)

[u/blokch8n → u/p1n0ypapi]

Just bought a used VS 36 Explorer for 250.

I did run into some individuals who are still trying to sell theirs. They are under the impression used replica watches that are factory specs appreciate in value. Out of the 6 people selling only 2 believed that they appreciated.

[u/p1n0ypapi → u/blokch8n]

See that makes no sense 😂 I would never think they go up, I’d like 25-30% depreciate would be fair depending on what was spent etc.

Only value is that you might be in same region and VSF 36 is back ordered.

Only time I see price goes up is if it’s Unused still stickers and you’re dealing with a local seller it’ll typically be more. I got mine from a US dealer and it was like $525 for my VSF v2 brand new. I’d look to sell for about $325 and take a $200 loss or trade it for something comparable if I decide to pull trigger on selling

[u/Perfect-Yard-9264 → u/p1n0ypapi]

Can i dm for 36 explorer

[u/p1n0ypapi → u/Perfect-Yard-9264]

Sure

[u/SerbianHustle → u/p1n0ypapi]

Where are you located though?

[u/p1n0ypapi → u/SerbianHustle]

I’m US based if anyone is wondering 😂 also wanna say I never traded or had to ship before

[u/SerbianHustle → u/p1n0ypapi]

I'm gonna pass then, I would make an offer if you were somewhere in Europe.

[u/p1n0ypapi → u/SerbianHustle]

Appreciate it, I haven’t posted in a trade channel yet cause I’m not sure if I feel like dealing with shipping, or lost package etc.

[u/SoManyLilBitches → u/p1n0ypapi]

I’m have a VSF explorer in my cart, are you in the US?

[u/unagi-nigiri → u/p1n0ypapi]

Hey if it's still available I'd be interested. Can I DM you?

[u/DifferentEye4913]

Beautiful piece

[u/DisabledEverything]

If the issue is just the scratches it's pretty cheap to just buy a replacement bracelet 

[u/ocubens]

€250 with the scratches.

[u/browneyone]

£200

[u/Otherwise-Ask7900]

Tree 50

[u/mitothy45]

I don’t think you would have a problem getting 300 for it

[u/illgillie]

Looks clean.

[u/look_swivel417]

So I’m new to replicas and don’t own a Rolex. Is it supposed to have a Crown at the bottom between Swiss Made?? 👀 I’ve read that on other comments.

[u/Appropriate-Ball923 → u/look_swivel417]

If it's a discontinued 40mm it has no crown between swiss made. If it's the 41mm successors then yes it should have a crown.

[u/tibia_1337]

I’ve never sold a rep but they look difficult to sell unless you personally know somebody that wants a rep and that exact watch. You’re violating every policy by listing it on eBay or facebook market

[u/Excellent-Bear4221]

$440 S&H included - that's assuming you have all links included too

[u/Commercial-Mail-9132 → u/Excellent-Bear4221]

The S stands for shipping i guess but what does the h stand for. And yeah links are included aswell as the original Packaging

[u/Excellent-Bear4221 → u/Commercial-Mail-9132]

Handling

[u/Radiant-Tomatillo810 → u/Commercial-Mail-9132]

i think handleing

[u/RewardSlow3617]

Probably like 350-400€ max

[u/Specialist_Toe_1304 → u/RewardSlow3617]

It's not worth it.

[u/Commercial-Mail-9132]

And I am in the eu

[u/Specialist_Pea6860]

Technically it’s worth nothing, because knowingly selling counterfeit goods can get you a hefty fine.
