How reliable is this? Low confidence.
There is little closely matched evidence, so treat this as a rough guide. The reference is an exact match (WSSA0009 is in the description), but I found no confirmed sales, either in South Africa or abroad. The only local comparable is one dealer asking price, and it is for a full set with Cartier warranty. The year, box and dial of the subject watch are not confirmed. The range is built from asking prices plus WatchCharts' pre-owned estimate for the model, so it is a benchmark, not a sold-price range.
Based on asking prices, not confirmed sales, so actual selling prices may be lower.
At R107,498 (USD 6,500 at ECB 16.5382 on 2026-11-06), the subject sits in the middle of an asking-price benchmark of R100,000–R120,000. That band is for a WSSA0009 sold with no original guarantee papers. Full-set examples are asked at about R124,000–R148,000, including Grand Timepiece in South Africa at R129,500 with the balance of the Cartier warranty. WatchCharts estimates the model's pre-owned market value at USD 6,044 (about R99,957) as of 30 Sep 2026. A discount for the missing papers puts this watch fairly in line, and the dealer's 1-year warranty partly offsets the missing Cartier guarantee. I found no evidence-backed figures for shipping, insurance or import charges, so the range excludes landing costs for imported watches; I did not add any blanket premium.
What could change this: Box and papers. The listing says 'Original Guarantee: None' and doesn't say whether the box is included. If the watch comes with its box and the Cartier card or registration, R107,498 would be below market against full-set asks of R124,000 and up. If it has neither box nor papers, or shows heavy polishing or service needs, the price is at the upper end of fair. The price is also set in USD, so the rand amount changes with the exchange rate.
Missing evidence: No confirmed sale prices for WSSA0009, local or international, and no other South African listing without papers. I also found no supported figures for shipping, insurance or SA import duty and VAT, which are needed to work out what an imported watch would cost landed here.
Not known
- Year of production and whether the watch is still covered by Cartier's 8-year international warranty (not stated; no original guarantee papers)
- Whether the original box is included
- Dial colour. WSSA0009 normally has a silver/white Roman dial, but the listing doesn't say
- Service history and whether the case has been polished
- Whether all bracelet links and the QuickSwitch strap or tool are included
- The listing gives 38 x 48mm; the reference spec is about 39.8 x 47.5mm. Probably a listing error, but not confirmed
- Rand price depends on USD/ZAR at purchase, since the dealer prices in USD

Exact reference, South African dealer. Includes Cartier box and papers plus the balance of the 8-year Cartier warranty, so it should sell for more than the subject (no guarantee papers). Reduced from R154,000; the page was about 59 days old when found.
