Spooky Pinball, 2020I just got a brand new in the box Bulova watch the other day for my 25 year work anniversary and I have no desire to take it out of the box and wear it. It says it's the Mens Classic with the black strap and has a retail sticker on it of $375. I'm looking to sell it, anybody got any idea what it's really worth?
Thanks,
John

Hard to say. Bulova makes a ton of "Mens Classic" watches. Maybe $200 on eBay.

Pic?
Quoted from Dayhuff:Sure thing, here's some quick pics of the watch.

Bulova model #97B155. MSRP $375. Looks like the retail is $300 at Bulova website below. I've seen other references to it online for $177. https://www.bulova.com/products/97b155

Sooo...maybe $200 if it was in front of a guy that wanted a Bulova watch right then?

I think you're looking at $150 for the person who wants that Bulova watch.
Quoted from Mike_J:I think you're looking at $150 for the person who wants that Bulova watch.
Yeah I think your right, the $200 would be really pushing it. Thanks guys!!

Quoted from aobrien5:If it were silver rather than gold I'd be interested. Good luck!
It's definitely a nice design.
Yeah I know right, but I didn't have a choice. In fact these were kind of a after thought I think since I was told about getting one about a month after my anniversary date was over and then it took another six months for it to finally get to me.
Quoted from chubtoad13:Can you guys recommend a watch forum? I’m going down a watch rabbit hole lately.
watchuseek.com
Quoted from pinmaniac:Will require liquidating my pinball collection and several watches.
Quoted from pinmaniac:Is watchuseek.com a good place to sell? I've got a business opportunity that I'm going after. Will require liquidating my pinball collection and several watches.
Careful with those ICO's 
And yes watchuseek is a very good place to sell. All ads on watchuseek also end up on watchrecon.com. I've sold quite a few watches on watchuseek.

It is popular, but you can't sell unless you have 75 posts, and if you post a bunch in a couple days, they will remove your posts. I was reading a ton of threads and posting in a bunch over a couple days and they pulled all my posts, so i stopped using that forum.
Quoted from fiberdude120:Can anybody here say what is a good (not crazy priced) watch winder?
I really like my Wolf meridian triple winder. Not sure what is "Crazy" priced to you. For me, spending $600 on a quality winder was worth it when i'm winding rather expensive watches. The Wolf has a ton of control and settings. Allows me to set the proper rotation direction and rotations per hour.
Quoted from fiberdude120:Can anybody here say what is a good (not crazy priced) watch winder?
Sorry...I don't use them.
Quoted from fiberdude120:Can anybody here say what is a good (not crazy priced) watch winder?
I have one I might be selling. Top quality, but only a single winder. I'll post pix if you'd like.

That would be great,thanks.

Sad how similar your company is to mine. I find it funny they leave the Price Tag on it to basically show what they think you are worth. lol My company did the same and I asked if I could just have the 375$! lol
Quoted from Yelobird:My company did the same and I asked if I could just have the 375$
You don't think they actually spent $375 do you?
Quoted from spfxted:I'll snap a few shots when I get home...
Quoted from fiberdude120:That would be great,thanks.
Hi. Let me know if you're interested as someone contacted me to be next in line. I'd like to get around $200. (Paid much more)
AND, I just found the original box with Instruction Bag!

Thanks for the pics Ted. If you have somebody who wants it now let it go,I think my wife may have bought me one for my birthday but wont know until the day comes. I will let you know if she didnt than.

Some people got way too damn much money.
Quoted from aobrien5:Some people got way too damn much money.
Yep! Some one is a serious Paul Newman fan, and really likes that early Daytona Rolex.
Possibly Rolex bought it, but that money figure is a crazy high amount. Hey, hmmm.. ask Ted .
Quoted from cincyITguy:Wish all of my watches with straps had the same.
You could put that type of strap on all your watches.
Quoted from cincyITguy:Here is my Omega Aqua Terra. Golf is my other love, so the dimples on the face are super cool to me. Love the strap with bracelet clamp. Wish all of my watches with straps had the same.
Stop temping me with more Omega Porn! My Omega addiction is almost stronger than pinball at this point... Beautiful watch.

Panerais are my weakness!
Quoted from Tortelvis:I’ve been wanting an Omega for a long time. Finally picked up this Speedmaster. I remember when collecting pins was cheaper than collecting watches.
Having owned that Awesome Speedy and several others that watch didn't cost That much less than a Pin!! Sadly but for me there is only one....Speedmaster!
Quoted from chubtoad13:Here’s my Casio Tachy Meter. The green bar moves one tick every second and the red one moves one every 5.
I love this thing. It reminds me of California in the 80s
Good looking Casio. What vintage?
Quoted from ToucanF16:Good looking Casio. What vintage?
It’s a DW-400. Unfortunately I don’t have the original band.
If you do a search for Casio skywalker, they also made a surfing timer that’s really cool.
Quoted from ToucanF16:Don't know why, but I love the big Panerais. I finally landed a pre-owned PAM0372, one of my grail watches. Check out the 3mm thick domed Plexiglas crystal.
Very nice! I’m a huge Panerai fan, own a 505 and 176
Quoted from herbertbsharp:I just got this cool tactical G-Shock today, but damn, this thing is big. I feel like I'm wearing a microwave! And I tend to like larger watches. I didn't read the specs and thought it was smaller. It will be good for wearing outside of gloves or other layers though.
Ok have to ask, do you have a manican in your house?
