*please let me know if this is not allowed*

I’m looking to buy my partner (27M) a gift to celebrate a big milestone and came across this JLC watch that I think might fit the bill. However, I’m new to watches so would love to get thoughts on if this is a fair price, if there are things to watch out for, etc.

Is Chrono24 the most common marketplace?

Price looks on the lower end imo. Use Chrono24 Escrow when buying.. get it checked once the watch is received. That way you’re protected.

I’ll say that is a fantastic gift and a beautiful watch

I would be ecstatic to receive this watch as a gift, and I’ve purchased watches from Chrono24 in the past and have never had a problem, just do your background research on the dealer/seller it’s coming from. I’d say scams are uncommon on the site but it’s important to always buy the seller!

What would not be allowed about this post?

We love when people try to do something special for an enthusiast significant other and the preowned market can be difficult to navigate. One thing that is super important is to make sure you do some diligence on the seller. Chrono24 is a reputable marketplace but you may not always get the best price and still have risk that the actual seller is sketchy so make sure you look at who is listing the watch.

How can I get to marketplace

Does he know / like watches? I’d rec shopping with him. It’ll be just as special and he’ll get exactly what he wants. Otherwise a surprise seems risky for the money you’re spending

He does!!! He’s a big fan, of JLC and has been wanting a watch w a round face, silver case, and brown band!!

Im just new to buying watches and wanted to know if pricing made sense and if chrono24 is reputable

I think this is overall fair but before you pull the trigger, it might be worthwhile to search around with some independent dealers.

I have bought pieces from Long Beach Watch Club and there are others that can notify you if certain pieces come in or can connect you with others in their network that may have the watch.

Thank you

It’s a great watch

I generally advocate for shopping together, but as a JLC fan and dress watch enthusiast - if I received this I would be absolutely over the moon and happy that my partner found a good deal and saved some money.

Bought this off chrono24 and it is excellent. Also, don't listen to people who say not to get someone a watch without letting them pick it. That totally takes away the specialness of giving the gift. It sounds like you have a pretty good understanding of what they like and chose the right piece. Go for it!

It‘s an elegant classic watch one can wear every day. Underapreciated often, great value for money. As someone who ownes a dozen watches, i would still love it. Even more as a gift i was not expecting from a loved one!

Fellow enterprise tech sales fish, I’m interested to hear your perspective. I’ve been in a rut lately and seriously considering leaving sales. I think it’s primarily fueled by one thing:
After a 6 mo cycle I closed a large deal (4x the average deal size) prior to receiving delayed 2022 comp plans. The deal counts as a 2022 deal. On last years comp plan it would’ve paid out at 10%. This year it pays out at a measly 4%.

How do you/have you navigated your way through and out of these situations?

30th birthday present watch accessory ideas.

A lot of knowledge on here so asking for some help. It’s my partner’s birthday and I’ve no idea what to buy him. He’s a watch fanatic - Pateks (sports and dress), Audemars (sports and dress), Rolex (sports), Omega (sports).

I’m obviously not buying him a watch for his birthday (in his dreams!) but any idea for some good accessories? He’s already got a PP watch winder, and has bought multiple nice straps for the dress watches. I’m completely lost.
