Brand new or pre-owned?

[Edwinlkj]

Preferably new one. Don't mind old but have to see the condition.

[Confusedboi]

will consider pre-owned based on condition of the watch.

I bought my very first rolex yesterday and was a hulk. Honestly didnt feel happy.. Maybe because I didnt pay a very good price

Rolex disparity for stainless steel models is very low, therefore I consider brand new sometimes. Yellow gold seems to give better margins. Ultimately my first date just was preowned. I think it depends on the model. Subs and daytonas for SS, you barely save 1500 on mint condition ones.

Brand new for me though the price is significant higher. Gives me a peace of mind and the wow factor when removing the new watch from the box

Pre owned so there's less pain when flipping it

[rockeys]

got money... new one

no money ... preown hehehe

[Confusedboi]

Buying brand new may get more expensive.. Apparently there was 5% price increase for Rolex watches in EU countries from Feb 2016. Grey dealers here sourcing from Europe may/will increase prices

Hope no price increase for Singapore.

only brand new ones for me

[PlainWhiteTees]

Definitely buy new if no intention to sell/trade in future.

Got my first pre owned rolex sub

1st hand cost about 10500? I got mine about 7.1k

[egoh]

prefer new, but wallet would disagree

I have no problem with used watches; bought my first Rolex from my brother who upgrades to a Hulk.
Problem is, where to find the good deals (I mean other than in this forum)

[sunnycarp]

brand new of course!!!

[Ronnie82]

I personally also prefer NEW!

Enjoy the entire experience as the first owner to the watch
