Do I go for it

$8500 Do I get it ? No box or papers.

I wouldn’t personally. I prefer having the box and papers if I am spending that much.

Depends if you’re first of all buying it for wearing or as an “investment” and after that it depends if the seller is reputable and if they’re close to you.

If those boxes ticked off I would buy it

·

Depends on what your concerns are with the watch? Is it the no box & papers, the price, the condition etc?

way too much, check out, (cool vintage watches, )(Huntington watch company, )(dc vintage watches.)

There are about four stylistic reasons that I would not choose this, but that is subjective. I'd look at one of those youtube videos on where to check in the movement for authenticity and get a visual inspection of the movement. The price seems to have room for haggling, I'd hope.

No. Box and papers help verify authenticity. Save €8350, buy a G-Shock!

·

Clearly no, because you’re doubting yourself so much you’ve resorted to asking random strangers on the internet for advice (who frankly don’t care one way or the other)

Nope.

Yes

I agree, it's not one of the better looking Datejust dials. Subjective, as you say.

I’m just posting for fun. Seeing what people say. No im not buying and I make my own decisions. But that is the price I was given

·

Not for me, no. If it’s an expensive watch, I always want papers (must) and box (preferably)

·

I would pass on that one.

It’s a Datejust II - personally for any DateJust I prefer the fluted bezel… but buy what you like and you can’t go wrong #rolex
