300-800, depends on the condition. It's worth getting one as pristine as possible, the case is quite intricate with all the facets so any buffing would soften the sharp edges. Get the vertical brushed dial one if you can, or the rare (at least well preserved) black dial one.
ref numbers to look for:
J13080
6206-8990
6206-8040
6206-8070
6218-8970
6218-8971
