I have completed ~20 transactions on WatchUSeek. That is typically where I find new homes for my orphans, but the market is what the market is. Chrono24 prices are quite high compared to private forum sales in my experience, and most used watches will sell for significantly less than retail (PP Nautilus, AP RO, and Rolex excluded).
Haha you’re crazy for this one but wear in good health! Not for me but if you enjoy it, then that’s all that really matters here.
Great question!
My current favorite is my 145.0022 Speedmaster from my birth year (1987).
As for a grail, I wouldn’t call it an end-game but funny that the first response was JLC Reverso because that is exactly where my mind went. I’d also love to get my hands on a Tudor 79220R and 79220N. I have the 79220B and I think it would be great to give the R and B to my sons for a life milestone (keeping the black one).
I browse watch recon daily! lately I have also made a few authenticated purchases from eBay and have been very satisfied.
I‘ve had mixed experiences at AD’s although as someone else mentioned I usually buy used to avoid the instant depreciation and I’m not simping for hype pieces. I tried on a JLC Reverso at an AD in Dallas whilst traveling - if I had the money I would have bought it immediately. The salesman was very friendly and made excellent conversation as I tried on many pieces I’d heard of and some I hadn’t. He was genuinely sharing the joy of the watches with me even though I had told him upfront I was unlikely to buy anything that day.
