Any good websites for "browsing" 2nd hand rolexes (ie, bernard watch, blower's jewele
Hello...I really rather enjoy browsing websites with a large selection of 2nd hand Rolexes. I currently peruse through the pages at bernard watch and blower's jewelers as they have a rather large collection and adequate photography. Any suggestions for other sites?
Not to seem weirder than I already appear... But I admit I find this relaxing because: (1) For the near future, I intend to buy used rolexes [from reputable sources of course] as they represent a relatively depreciated asset and I have modest funds. Eventually I'd like to buy a new one someday but I'm rather afraid my current cheap nature will stand in the way! (2) I just find it relaxing knowing the prices of things..and then having to calculate them into my local foreign currency! |

i would look over the sites listed above... but i would pm a trusted seller here to see if the prices are better. im betting they will be. that said i have purchased a rolex from Wingates. it was a smooth transaction but i feel i over paid.

thanks for these leads!! great to scroll through, at least. both sites seem to not include much info on the watch, in particular, the serial or year of production (or, at least, years of original warranty). do they provide additional info if requested? (if you know from your own experience.) |
