An guest has been left stunned after learning the value of his damaged watch on Sunday.
Fiona Bruce and the team were at Sefton Park in Liverpool for the latest episode, where one man brought in a Rolex watch.
The watch was an Oyster Perpetual, named The Explorer and belonged to the man's stepfather, who gave it to him before he died.
It was looked over by expert Richard Price, who said that it might be even older than the man who brought it in.
After looking over the vintage watch, Richard decided it would have been made back in 1959.
Gobsmacked: An Antiques Roadshow guest has been left stunned after learning the value of his damaged watch on Sunday
Estimate: Fiona Bruce and the team were at Sefton Park in Liverpool for the latest episode, where one man brought in a Rolex watch.
He then told the owner that the strap and the hands of the watch were most likely 'service replacements'. 
Despite the watch being slightly damaged, with a scratched face, Richard revealed it was still worth an eye-watering sum. 
Sharing his valuation verdict, he said: 'I reckon, that in today's market, between £7,000 and £9,000.
The shocked owner declared: 'Wow, it's a lot of money that.'
Richard added: 'It's a lovely, lovely thing to remember him by.

And also, it's a fabulous watch to wear.'
It comes after last week, another guest was left shocked over the eye-watering valuation of her pendant.
Expert John Benjamin was impressed with the 19th century jewellery, which was presented to him at Clissold Park in Stoke Newington.
John revealed he was particularly happy with the find, as one of its kind hadn't featured on the programme in 30 years. 
He informed the shocked owner that they could make around £10,000 ($AUD18,000) for the item if they were to put it up for auction.
While the guest didn't explain how much the pendant originally cost or where she got it from, her gob-smacked expression suggested she was happy with the price. 
Wow! It comes after last week, another guest was left shocked over the eye-watering valuation of her pendant
After being handed the item, John observed: 'This is a teardrop shape, rather severe dark-coloured jewellery box, and when you open the lid it reveals something considerably more colourful and bold inside a splendid gold pendant.'
He continued by explaining how European and French jewellers of the 19th century produced jewellery so that appeared to date from the 16th century.
John said: 'Now what we call that is Neo-renaissance another term [is] Tudor revivalism.
'Of course, this one we've got has an interesting piece of paper, circa 1879, which does suggest that it is a 19th-century piece.
'Then have a look at this, did you see this large triangular-shaped stone?

It's a diamond, but what we call a flat Lesko cut diamond.'

Lost for words: The guest's response was a simple 'wow' as she was speechless from astonishment
The expert claimed that the frame was a 'giveaway' for him since it was more 19th-century than 16th-century due to its scroll and heart details.
He continued, shocking both the audience and the visitors, by saying: 'It would end up making £10,000.'
The guest's response was a simple 'wow' as she was speechless from astonishment.  
John then revealed he hadn't seen a neo-renaissance gem like this on the Antiques Roadshow in 30 years,' as he discussed its historical significance.
He concluded: 'This is the first one.

So can you imagine how much pleasure you've given me to talk to you about it?'
