What is it worth?
I look on Ebay to see what the current market is. Of course you can put anything you want for a price and that doesn't make it worth that. So, I like to go to "sold' items.
Well I found this clock at a yard sale Friday for one dollar. I know it's worth more than a dollar and I'm pretty sure the asking price is a bit high on this listing.

Last year I bought a wrist watch for a buck and sold it on EBay for $375. I did have it cleaned and put a new band on it for another $50. I had seen it listed on Etsey for $1,200 and listed on EBay in ruff condition for $250, the scrape value for the 14k gold in it. It only lasted for 2 or 3 days before it sold. It was a 1958 Swiss mans' watch the just looked like any other 1958 watch, until I saw the made in switzerland.
Looks exactly like the one pictured on Ebay.

(34,093 posts)My answer is, did you check to see what it sold for on EBay? Another great answer is, then you should sell it on EBay.

(34,093 posts)I think the last posting I found on Ebay was from 2003 and sold for around $50. That's what I put on it.
As I recall it had a diameter of about 5 inches. The most notable think was how heavy it was.
