The 16528 trades at a clear premium to the steel 16520 on gold content alone, and above the 16523 Rolesor on the same basis. Clean champagne-dial examples on original gold Oyster bracelets sit in the low-to-mid five figures USD in the established auction catalogue. Rarer dial configurations push results higher: diamond markers, MOP, and sodalite all trade above the standard champagne, with diamond-markered examples documented by Sotheby's at the top of the standard range.
