Hi, All. Looking for a little feedback on this 806 Navitimer, 122XXXX serial. The other ones I've seen that are similar have the so-called "Boxed 10" in red. This one looks white, although it could be faded, I suppose. Still, there are red arrows on the outer ring that are not faded, so it gives me pause. Any feedback on that issue or anything else is most welcome. Asking price is in the $5K neighborhood. Thanks!

Here's a side view of the crystal. Is it definitely wrong? And if so, where would I source a correct one? Are they hard to find, and expensive? Thanks for your help.

What would be a fair market value for this watch, roughly, assuming that everything is authentic and original? The prices seem to be all over the place from what I can find online. I can't even tell what's a more desirable dial, the twin-plane or AOPA. I'm told it's been serviced and that the case is unpolished.

boxed 10 are among the rarer panda 806, the AOPA boxed is even rarer.
primary defining factor for valuation is overall and especially dial lume condition, all quite good here.
price is at the upper end of reasonable, but not unfair.
