6 Things To Ask Before You Buy A Used Rolex

Very helpful! Thanks!

All very important points...buying preowned or from auction houses can be an expensive experience ..Franken watches are commonplace and probably only an expert eye knows what has been replaced..always buy the dealer not the watch..

It always staggers me that someone may be prepared to pay as much (if not more!) as a 2nd hand car for a 2nd hand Rolex, without a "recent" Rolex service and associated papers to validate it as genuine! Doubt many would do the same with a car, no mater how old!!

Good points, Mike. I’d like to add that the 1530, 1520, 15xx, series of movements and newer are really well made, and don’t have parts that routinely wear out, like earlier movements do. The 1030 and earlier movements have parts that wear out, that are hard to find. That’s something to avoid, for most people.

7th question: Am I an idiot buying a watch for much more than MSRP ? The answer is always YES

As for question 2, that is most of the time impossible to answer. There’s no way to know if it was serviced by a skilled watchmaker and used genuine parts, unless you disassemble the watch which is costly and no seller will accept anyway. Better to assume it does not and pay accordingly. Spending much money on used Rolexes is idiotic to be honest, because of the reasons above, plus others.

I think i'ma step my watch game up to the Rolex Presidential Day Date watch they have out now. I started off in the watch game with Movado watches. My 1st watch purchase was the Movado Bold in gold. I love the way the light hits the watch bracelet.

What if I am purchasing online through a CC or Tourneau?

Definitely definitely

Great video, thanks!

Great advice - thanks!🙏🏼

Thank you for the info

Pretend to be rich, by buying a rich guys used watch, then get in your normal ass car, in your suburb house, but in your heads you live in a mansion 😂😂

If you ask those questions, I doubt if they will still sell that watch to you

Conclusion - Buy at AD

All Good Point! If they can’t answer basic question, why still buy from them! Thanks for the detailed advise
