Used Yachtmaster - What to Pay?
Still a newbie, but have been trying to do my homework. I have been looking for a few months, tried on a number of different styles, and I think I have decided the Yachtmaster (16622).
I have found a used 2007 that looks to be in great condition for $5,900. Based on all the other watches I have been looking at this seems like a great price. Seller is a reputable local business. Watch comes with the original box, paperwork, and so forth. Am I missing something, or is this good deal? Thanks for any feedback. |

I wouldn't say it's on the low side as I've seen a little lower from reputable sellers but it's a fair price depending on condition.

Seems fair. Given that it is five years old, if it has not been serviced, I would budget $500 sooner or later to have that done.

That is quite low if it's legitimate. Just last month, I purchased a mint-condition 2002 YM for $6200, and it's five years older than yours.

Be careful.
If you can get authenticated, that's a hell of a price. I really like the Yachtmaster and it's contoured lines. Any reputable dealer would be willing to work with you I'd think.

Sometimes depends on what one has invested. Or, he may need the cash flow. Would be a great deal if all is well. I have'nt seen a one that low around here.
