Buying a pre-owned Rolex can offer good value but is it right for you? It’s true most people would prefer to purchase a new Rolex but if
you’re thinking vintage or had your eye on a modern discontinued model than a pre-owned Rolex might be a good fit.
Certified pre-owned watches have become a popular option for customers shopping for a fine timepiece. Here are some suggestions of things you need to know regarding what pre-owned Rolex watch you want to buy .
A) Vintage or Modern?
If you’ve decided a pre-owned Rolex is the ticket, then the next decision is modern or vintage. Vintage watches can only be
purchased in the pre-owned marketplace. Buying a vintage watch takes knowledge and the guidance of a professional watch dealer.
If that’s not your cup of tea, then buying a modern pre-owned reference is a great decision. Rolex models never go out of style but they do
get updated every so often a model will be replaced by a new one that features very subtle improvements such as a larger case
size or a new movement.
B) Which Model?
Rolex creates many different models, each with their own unique style and function. There are numerous iconic Rolex sports watches such as the Submariner, Daytona, GMT Master II
and Explorer. Then there is the Cellini model of watches suitable for business and formal occasions. The great thing about Rolex is all of their beautiful timepieces can be worn day or night 24/7.
C) Where Should I Shop?
