WHAT IS A PRE OWNED WATCH?

Put simply, a pre owned watch is one that has been pre-owned by one or multiple people. It will have originally been purchased from an authorised dealer and then made its way onto the pre owned market for a number of reasons.   

ARE PRE OWNED WATCHES WORTH IT?

It depends. As with a brand new car, most watches will lose a percentage of their initial value the moment you walk out of the shop. This means that purchasing a pre owned watch can offer a substantial saving on new. This isn't always the case though. Most Rolex watches from the professional range, including the Rolex Submariner, Rolex GMT Master II and Rolex Cosmograph Daytona are worth considerably more as a pre owned watch and prices can be double the original retail price.

WHICH WATCHES HOLD THEIR VALUE THE BEST?

Generally speaking Rolex tend to hold their value the best. Models from the professional range such as the Submariner and GMT Master II will also increase in value over the years of your ownership. It wasn't long ago that a nice pre owned Rolex Cosmograph Daytona 116520 could be purchased for under £10,000. Those days are long gone and prices of late models are now in the mid 20's!
