jewelry for sale or trade for bike/quad cash
Ok, so I have to chime in here for a min because people may not realize what kind of value we're talking about....First of all are the dial and bezel aftermarket or Rolex Cert? Second paper is seriously inflaited for insurance purposes...So even with a Rolex cert parts you're still talking about at least 30-40% less then papered value...I can't give you an actual because I've never seen his watch but from the pics I would have to say it's in about 50-60 % pre owned condition possibly less(band is streched and looks a bit scratched) which would bring the price down quite a bit....Oh and I can get it cleaned and oiled for whoever may need it for around $275.00....In case you're wondering I've been in the jewelry business for 6 years and have delt with pre-owned Rolex on the daily....Sorry if I shot ya in the foot at all but thought I'd give a lil insight on the watches actual worth. Good Luck!!!!

i never said i wanted 11,500 for it,the bike this guys wants to trade is only worth around 4500 maybe,its been down 10,000 miles scratches etc...it aint perfect,and my watch aint brand new,i never said it was,i aint on here tryin to take advantage of nobody,if you can do the service for 275 then thats the hookup cause you know rolex dont even look at it for no less then 375 just to start working on it.around 500 for the full service.i paid 3000 for the watch itself,i paid 5500 for the face and bezel to be installed,the only reason i got the face so cheap is because i bought the bracelt and chain and face for 17,500 together.if anyone from "detroit knows greenfield jewelers" my homeboy is georgio and he only deals with nice ****,no bullshit,i would love to see someone get this exact watch for less then 8000 ,it aint possible,also the scratches and that you know that all it takes is to be buffed to make it perfect again,and what you talkin bout its streched?i only wore it for less then a year then put it in my bank lock box,strechin the band taskes a long *** time.

I think everything you said makes the watch worth what you say it is. The watch was well done with aftermarket parts in fairly decent condition and and all around nice buy at your price.Like I already said...Good Luck!! and ride safe

i wasnt tryin to be rude,maybe i took it the wrong way,just sounded like you were calling it junk,im looking for around 5500 for it in bike or cash,i aint tryin to rob no body,if i wanted to do that id just say it was platinum cause a regular person cant tell the difference,but if you can service it that would be cool save some money,where you at?no hard feelings

I lowsided the bike in a buddy's neighborhood when I hit a slick spot. Fork seals are good, rotors are good, actually rolled a few endos last night and the brakes are still $$$ and there are no vibrations in the brakes or the wheels. The bike is really straight except for the scratches and that is why I took such closeups so noone would be getting into something they didn't know about.
Thanks Boylandbabe for your help. You might get a call from me if I end up with the watch.

let me see a photo of it from the front end lookin down it,and from the tail the same way,if nobody else is interested i may just trade ya,how could we do it?and also there is n o ticks knocks or anything worng with the engine right?it is gonna last long and all that ****?no tranni problems etc..how hard have you rode it seriously?is it something i can ride fast with someone on back and not worry about something breakin and i crashin it?
i could meet you in ocala or something?you got a trailer to drag it down with ?im gonna take the watch and have it buffed and polished today then ill post some more pics of it,why i said it needs to be oiled and **** inside is because at 11 it will stick if your not wearing it ,and you tap the face and it moves,so there has to be some bit of dirt or a flat spot on one of the gears inside,so it needs a tuning,i just wore it to bike week and it was fine but when you take it off and its not moving it sticks at 11 till you tap it,let me know what you think,and send me them 2 more pictures.

The bike does not have a steering damper. The engine is in great condition though. It cranks right up every time without hesitation and runs very smoothly. Like I said, I've kept up with the oil changes too. I haven't ridden it any harder than anyone else would and I've never hit the rev limiter because I've only done one burnout with the bike, and a very short one at that. As far as the condition of the rest of it, I trust that bike with my life every time I get on it and I can do that because I know I have taken good care of it and that everything on it is in proper working order. With 10k miles on a bike, there will be some wear and tear, but it is certainly one of the cleanest bikes with that milage on it with the exception of the swingarm scratch. I will get the picture from the front looking down tonight and get that to you tomorrow. I can certainly meet you somewhere in between if we work something out. I do appreciate your interest and hopefully we can make it work.
