As above, it's not of great value, I've submitted pics to a couple of places that claim to buy them but they haven't responded.

Value is a difficult thing to quantify, especially with watches; there are plenty of people obsessed with dress-style watches, but I’d never wear one, I certainly wouldn’t own one. My Yema has suddenly become collectible after the maker spent years as a subsidiary of Seiko, and is now an independent, and their early 60’s/70’s models are increasing in value. One like mine sold at auction in London and fetched £3800. 🤷🏼

Ebay might well be the best option, if a couple of people take a fancy to it, it might make more than you expect.

Cheers, as I expected. I paid £250 on it 15 years ago, it's a Record de Luxe quartz in gold, a bit dressy.

I guess my question was more "do you know a reliable watch buyer?" (no idea if they've not replied BC it's not worth much or been unreliable) and yes eBay is the obvious place if not
