Antiques Roadshow had a Rolex Submariner that was several decades old, had all the original packaging and the invoice. It was factory refurbished, but the owner was smart enough to not replace the face (or the bezel, I can’t recall, but replacing either would have replaced the original face either way) as the entire value in that particular watch was the unique and rare face, that would have been replaced with a more standard version. Can’t remember the valuation, but it was a HUGE number.
