What are the best ways to sell a watch in European Union?

[lapince]

I am putting 2 watches on sale, I have never done that before, I was only buying them, so I don't really know what is the best places to put them on sale, of course Ebay is a big NO, but for the others I don't really know, for those who are used to selling expensive watches, 17.700 and 8.700 euros, what are your favorite ways for selling?

Knowing that since I am in France I won't be having US clients, for them TRF is a good way but most members are from the US, I put adds on Chrono24.com, a little expensive but if you didn't sell in 6 months they give you your money back, mainly I need to be visible to european union buyers.

If someone has some advice it will be very welcome.

Thanks in advance for your feedback on this.

If your watches are vintage Rolex one with box and paper, you can also sell it to professionals in Paris. Depends if you want to sell or trade it. Best market in Europe to sell is UK where prices are higher. Big market in Germany too but it.s better to buy there.

It's a brand new Daytona 116515, wore it 5 times but fell in love with a Blancpain, so that's why I'm selling, am also selling 2 Pams, the 233 "dot dial" and the 28 special edition, want to sell these 3 to get the BP and the Hulk… They are in excellent condition, practically like new, don't want to sell to a pro, want to sell direct, was asking more for a website that has good exposure in EU, already posted 2 adds on Chrono24...
