  • Where to sell my Rolex watches

    Recently i wanted to sell a few of my watches to upgrade to a AP bumblebee, a Patek 5712/1A and Rolex WG 116509 black.

    For sale was a Pam311, Pam292, Pam 118, Patek 5167/1A and a AP Volcano, Rolex 116519. Total my cost estimated for all 6 watches were around $95k.

    So with this lot i checked with few 2nd dealers shops. I was quoted in average....
    Pam311....$18k
    Pam118....$5.5k
    Pam292....$8k
    Patek 5167...$18K
    Rolex 116519...$14.5k
    Ap Volcano...$16k
    Total $80k
    A TOTAL loss of abt $15k

    After consideration decided to sell here in this forum, going thru the hassle of taking photographs, postings, entertaining calls from genuine buyers, lowballers and enquiries calls at the wee hours.
    Though is tiring, answering in the middle of the night and then meeting viewers in North south east west of Singapore, i sold 5 of my watches.

    Pam311....$19.2k thks to 2 bros from Indon
    Pam118....$6.3k thks 2 bro from indon
    Pam292....$8.5k thks bro M
    Patek.......Still pending at $19.3k
    Rolex.......$16.5k thks bro E
    Ap volcano....$19.2k thks bro D
    Total got back $89k
    Total loss of $6k

    As compared to $15k loss i cut down to $6k. I was sad for losing $6000 but yet happy i saved $9000 posting and seling on my own.
    It was real troublesome but it was fun and exciting at the same time. Getting to meet buyers and viewers, discussing on watches, making more like minded friends here who are like me crazy abt watches.


    I went down to Sincere, Cortina and Hourglass preparing with cash to buy my dream watches, almost all told me no stocks and no discount, if have also retail price.

    Went down again to preowned shops to check, was quoted Rolex 116509 for $26.5k preowned, PP $39k preowned and bumblebee $31.8k new. Not comfortable as i feel is above market prices.
    Managed to get some offers in the end from some genuine sellers here after seeing my WTB watches,
    so bought the AP at ....$30.5k bnib G series
    Rolex 116509 D series...$25.5k
    I have another savings of $2300.

    Of course buying from the net have another hassle too, i had to go down Rolex centre and then AP centre to verify the watches.

    All verified 100% authentic

    Posting this topic is not to offend anyone and shops dealers, is just my true real life experience, i can understand your profit margins have to be high, you have rents to pay which easily above $10k every month, selling and buying thru shops dealers advantages are no hassle, just sell as one lot and you get cash fast, buying also less hassle with shops normally give you 3 to 6 months in house shop warranty. Any problem with the authentication you can just go back to the shops.

    Posting here in SG-ROC selling and buying on your own is off course more troublesome and risk is alw there, so need to be careful and you save lots of money.

    Conclusion, i just want to say thank you SG-ROC for this website, i have just saved a total of $9000 plus $2300 = $11300 which is a lot of money, along the way made some nice friends from this forum and many are real gentlemen

          I do agree with watch passionist..it's through SGROC that I met many new friends and interesting people along the way through the sales of my watches or other items.

          Buyers can buy at best prices compared to shops,sellers can sell at highest price as compared to shops. But of course there is a risk involved as you have said, and all buyers/sellers should take their necessary precautions when meeting new people. Nevertheless I feel the people on SGROC are great and I have met many gentlemen here.

          As a co-founder of SGROC, it is really a joy to see that you guys enjoy this place as much as I do!

          Cheers and have a great sunday ahead!
