First off I’ve never even worn a watch. It holds no sentimental value. My grandpa didn’t hide it up his rear while escaping a pow camp. The info I was given is

“that it was worn just a couple of times

Audemars Piguet Royal Oak

It’s the 15400

Stainless steel automatic “

These words are gibberish to me

I don’t mind given the other party the benefit of the doubt but I just want a second opinion they claim it is worth up to 40k??? Where does one even sell a watch? Is this how much cash pawn shops have on hand if I were to sell it to one? Does a Rolex dealer buy other brands?

I’ve never sold a watch myself, only bought them, but I don’t think a pawn shop is where you’re gonna wanna sell this if it turns out to be real, they need to make a profit as well so they’ll give you less than what they can sell it for. If you’re not in a pinch for money and you end up selling, take your time (no pun intended)
