Join at Watchtrader & Co as we buy and sell luxury watches in our store.
Our first customer has an elegant Patek Philippe Calatrava reference 6119R. This model features a rose gold case measuring in at 39mm and is just 8mm thin. The silvery lightly grained dial sits on top of a manual wind movement that is decorated to an exceptional standard as you would expect from Patek. The sapphire caseback allow you to observe the finest watchmaking in all of its glory. The watch is fitted with brown alligator strap. Jon looks to make an offer to the client to achieve the best return upon selling the watch. If we can price it right in the market, we can’t see this model hanging around for long.
While in store, the gent does consider a Rolex Submariner Bluesy, comparing the current 41mm version against the previous generation 40mm. There is a notable saving to be had by option for the older model. We also take a look at the 116500LN steel panda Daytona.
Josh takes a look at a Rolex Explorer 39mm mk.2 for a customer looking to liquidate part of his collection. The watch has clearly been well worn and enjoyed which is great to see, however we do need to take this into account when making an offer to buy it. He also has a Cartier Santos in the medium size with a white dial and despite its 35mm size, it wears larger than you might expect due to its square shape and integrated bracelet design. The Omega Seamaster diver is also for sale however this isn’t the latest version as it has a steel casebook and a simpler dial without the wave engraving. On his wrist is the Grand Seiko Snowflake, probably one of the most well known models in their line-up.
We have heard that Rolex gold pieces are due for a price increase on June 1st (at the time of post this video we can confirm it’s true) Stuart and Harry discuss the difference in retail and market price for a selection of gold models in store. We question what this could mean for the availability and market price of pre-owned precious metal watches as we move further into 2024.
