I think it depends on its age, flat four bezels etc command much higher prices
Condition will also have a bearing on the price.
Aren't the newer ones around the £8k Mark and the earlier flat fours are trading for £10k to £15k depending on the seller.
Just been offered £8250 for my Z serial on trade in

It's just a matter of time...
It’s crazy money, makes me wish I got on when I had the chance back in the day.

For £3k!
About £7500 - £8000 seems fair for private sales.
An AD in 2005 had two LVs, my brother had one and I ummed and arrrhed at the RRP of £2650 as I wanted a Speedy more. So naturally, I got a Breitling instead. <Facepalm>
If Y series with special anniversary cert, you are starting to approach 100% premium on top of the price of a non flat four.
If F series flat four, you are approaching a 50-60% premium of a non flat four.
Certainly beats the bank interest rates!

Prices are certainly shooting through the roof for the LV, along with the Sub (no-date) and the Pepsis. Crazy times. Have to wait for the prices to cool off. I wonder how long that will take or whether it will happen at all...
Prices may slow down and soften, but I can’t see them falling below the current levels.
It's just a matter of time...
I spoke to a dealer a couple of weeks ago who sold a lightly worn 2003 'F' serial for £17.5k.
It sold within a day and he had numerous people trying to purchase.
The number of 'Y' series must be tiny. From what I understand production only started in September 2003 and mine from December 2003 was an 'F'
Anybody paying the difference because a 4 is a different shape on the bezel is nuts(I include myself in this category).It is the same watch.
I would have paid a couple of thousand premium maybe but not what they stand at now.
It's not just the "4", the insert also looks much more like baby poop. That's worth at least a 20% premium.
I've been pretty consistent over time, and put my money where my mouth is: the darker green insert models without the RolexRolexRolex are the best of the LVs for anything besides sitting in a safe.
I found this nice one, it's the same guy that I bought my 5512 off, not the cheapest but highly respected. Looks like a nice example.

one im looking at is a M serial so probably at the lower end
Thats £13650.
Nuts
It my be nuts, but is probably a few grand cheaper than some of the London dealers are asking. I have seen these listed for £15k+.
The latest hype I saw was someone listing a white dial Zenith Daytona with the prediction that we will soon be saying, remember when you could buy these for below £20k. They were £9k last Christmas!!
I agree that prices are crazy, but the watches seem to sell quickly enough.
There's a guy in the USA who has been sitting on a really nice white dial Zenith Daytona offered at $35,000 for a decent while. The thing is now up to $49,000. I remember when you could get a big red for less than that - it wasn't even that long ago.
I love these watches, and I could probably afford to pay what they cost but it's getting insane. My Speedy Gemini LE was under $4,000 when I bought it four years ago. They're now selling at $10,000. Are there really that many rich people who just MUST have these things?
Wow if only I had more money. Very nice old shiny things👍 Now what can I sell
They’re just making prices up now, hanging about and waiting for the best.

Wow that website is terrible
Good luck for your watch hunting if you are impressed by a glossy website. At least the guy supplies images and an accurate description - try Watchfinder if you want FA detail about the Watch being sold.
Where in the EU is he based ?
Perhaps indicative of a great watch dealer, rather than someone more interested in web design.

I can't even work out what's felt to be wrong with it. Clear information, sensibly arranged, loads quickly - already that's better than, say, the Vacheron Constantin site.
I do hope this was meant as the lowest form of wit
Yep, I like it. Does what it needs to do.
Philippe is based in Madrid and welcomes people who can call in person. When I was buying I sent him a few e-mails which were all answered very promptly and when I bought from him the watch was collected from him on a Monday afternoon and delivered to me before 10.00am on the Tuesday - which is a little better than Royal Mail.
At the end of the day a website is a storefront to display what you have for sale, if you are interested then you go in and discuss it. I would recommend Philippe based on my experience and over on the Vintage Rolex Forum he is on their list of recommended sellers. He certainly gets some top quality stock in.
