1) Will you purchase an imitation watch?
Unfortunately replica's or "fakes" have no resale value.
2) Does my pre-owned watch need to be in working condition?
Usually a pre-owned watch that is not in working condition does have slightly
less value than a watch that is functioning properly. Keep in mind that very
rare or collectable watches command a high price regardless of condition.
3) Do you purchase pre-owned watches that are not made of gold or platinum?
Yes, in fact many high end watchmakers use stainless steel and other metals.
Certain stainless steel models actually have greater resale value than a watch
constructed from gold or platinum.
4) Do the original box and papers add value to my pre-owned watch?
Yes, in some cases having the original box, papers and manufacturers manuals can
add substantial value.
5) Do you purchase antique and vintage watches? Yes, The Estate Buyer purchases watches of all ages. Keep in mind that a
mass-marketed antique watch may have very little to no resale value.
As with all pre-owned watches resale value is based on the marketability of the
watch.
