<p>[QUOTE=&quot;kentworld, post: 19102, member: 35&quot;]So my friend took this watch to a sort of Antiques Roadshow type appraisal day that was put on as a fund-raiser.&nbsp; Here what the appraiser said:&nbsp; </p><p>I took the gold pocket watch to the ... this aft. The Mad Picker was over from Vancouver with his crew. They really, really, really liked the watch. Offered 1200 (the chain would be another 300). While I&#039;m thinking of selling, I wasn&#039;t quite ready to part with it. All they told me was what you had already told me 18 karat...nothing about maker or age...The Mad Picker gave me his card, email address etc. and said they&#039;d be coming back. They held up the line looking at the watch and kept saying how exquisite it was.</p><p><br /></p><p>Wondering what opinions might be if $1200 CDN and $300 for the watch and chain respectively is in the ball park.&nbsp; If she sold it at auction, she&#039;d have to pay a seller&#039;s premium, so this might be in the ball park?&nbsp; I&#039;m wondering a bit, as the &quot;Mad Picker&quot; would be buying for resale obviously.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
