The Beauty of Pre-Owned Luxury Watches

Pre-owned watches are very charming. Despite that, most people choose new timepieces for their pristine condition and full factory warranty. Still, there are several reasons to consider previously owned watches before you go and splash out on a brand-new watch.

Why Not Save Some Money?

Speaking of splashing out, price is one of the most important reasons to go for a second hand watch. Most used Swiss watches from high-end luxury brands will hold their value over time. However, there are some great options from affordable luxury watch brands that can be found for way less than their original price in the second-hand market.
Examples include some older models from brands like Breitling, TAG Heuer, IWC, and even some Omega collections. You can often find these older references in excellent condition for a fraction of the price of their modern counterparts. This way, you still get the look and feel of a luxury watch without having to spend a fortune.
Not to mention that, if you find a timepiece in excellent condition with box and papers, like the ones at Exquisite Timepieces, you'll get a very similar experience to a brand-new product. Plus, you get the added support of an authorized dealer with over 20 years of experience.

What If You Can't Find The Watch You Want?

Nowadays, it's getting harder to find some popular luxury sports watches due to their high demand and low supply. That's where the second hand watch market comes in and offers you an outlet to get your favorite timepieces from brands like Rolex or Patek Philippe. Granted, you will need to pay a premium over the retail price, but for many, it's worth the cost to obtain the watch of their dreams.
And let's not forget about the flourishing vintage watch market that draws more and more watch enthusiasts every year. By definition, you won't find vintage watches brand new, so pre-owned timepieces are your only option if you want to amass a vintage watch collection. But always remember that buying vintage watches can be a minefield, and you should always do thorough research before you pick one up.

Let Me Tell You a Story

The biggest advantage of men's pre owned watches over brand-new ones is the stories they tell. While a shiny new case may seem more appealing, the small dents and scratches on a second-hand watch can be even more fascinating. After all, they are markings of the memories the original wearer made while wearing the watch!
Remember that luxury watches can last for decades when properly cared for. Therefore, a pre-owned watch with a few bumps and bruises is just a storybook of the experiences its previous owner lived through. Plus, all those unique markings add a distinct character to any timepiece that you won't find on a new watch.

Are Pre-Owned Watches Reliable?

An issue that often comes up regarding pre-owned watches is their reliability. You can't be certain if the previous owner cared for their watch and serviced it properly.
In general, luxury watches are built to last and can withstand some mistreatment without breaking down completely. Additionally, a good watchmaker will be able to repair most types of damage on a watch.
If you want to be certain of the reliability of used watches, you should look for timepieces in like-new or very good condition. At Exquisite Timepieces, we only choose pre-owned watches in excellent condition and offer a warranty on most of them.
Plus, if one of your second watches needs servicing, we take care of the whole process for you. Or you can trade it in for one of the brand-new or pre-owned watches!

How Much Does a Good Pre-Owned Watch Cost?

Just like new watches, you can easily find excellent previously owned watches at different price points. There are tons of affordable vintage Seiko watches for a few hundred dollars, as well as very respectable used Swiss watches for a few thousand.
If you're looking at higher price points, most standard Omega and Breitling models will cost below ten thousand dollars. Finally, when it comes to the most popular Rolex references, you can expect to pay upwards of twenty thousand or even more.
In any case, the condition and rarity of a watch will determine its price tag. The most hard-to-find models are usually the ones that fetch the higher price tags, especially if they're in excellent condition with their boxes and papers.
