So, you’ve decided to give the watch-obsessed person in your life a new timepiece. Not a bad choice! But it doesn’t have to be new – it just needs to be new to them. Certified pre-owned has become the preferred method of obtaining some of the world’s most desirable luxury replica watches, so you should seriously consider purchasing a pre-owned luxury watch before you walk into a store or toss a retail-priced watch into your cart.
Unless you are buying a vintage timepiece or a more elusive stainless steel 6-figure sports watch that has skyrocketed in value, you will be getting more than retail when you buy a pre-owned luxury watch. Within the luxury watch industry, used pieces are by no means considered “inferior” to brand new, and many collectors specialize in buying pre-owned watches because they can save a lot of money.
Buying a pre-owned watch is a great opportunity to give the watch lover in your life a major piece, such as an almost new Rolex Datejust or a classic Omega Speedmaster at a great price. They will receive a usually pricey watch, and you can leave knowing you paid a reasonable price for an exceptional luxury watch.
You are also limited to what is available in your area, as many luxury watch retailers only sell through brick-and-mortar dealers and not online. In addition, waiting lists for certain very popular models can often be years long, and finding certain watches can lead to a lot of hassle.
On the other hand, there are tons of options for buying pre-owned copy watches – sometimes too many good choices. When working with a reputable pre-owned dealer, you can also enjoy the convenience of shopping online with helpful sales representatives, a no-questions-asked return policy, and a guarantee that your watch is 100% authentic.
In fact, if you are lucky, the value of a watch will increase as it is discontinued or new models become available. So when you give someone a used fake watch, it’s not just a timepiece; it’s an investment you’re getting at the right price – and really, is there a better gift than that?
