What are good second hand watches to look for less than 5k? Any websites or better to go to a local shop?

I like exquisite timepieces a lot. For under $5k you should see lots of GS, Oris, Breitling, Tudor and the occasional JLC. Also check delray watch

GS and Tudor are pretty affordable aftermarket, recommend those

Tudor is affordable new in grey market at this price too

Chrono24. If you like sports watches, check out the Breguet Type XX. Unbelievable value at about $5k pre-owned for many variants

Most popular (for good reasons) more established and recognized luxury brands at that price point would be Omega and Tudor, with Breitling also making a renewed push to mainstream attention (the new generation Superocean Heritage in particular is great)

Just second hand or vintage? I love an old Omega Constellation pie pan, nice ones come in below that. Lots of good Breguets out there too if you like them.

Really just looking for a nice watch for a casual wearer.

Response to SM2

What do you like? Can you give us any sort of direction for the type of look you're going for?

I'd say a Cartier Tank Francais - plenty used ones on chrono24 well within your budget.

I’m a first-time prospective lateral likely to get an offer shortly. I just received a lateral questionnaire that requests billable hours, rates, fees collected, etc. for the last three years. Forgive my ignorance but is this normal/standard? Do people actually answer these honestly? One of the reasons I’m leaving my firm is there isn’t enough work in my group so of course my hours are low.

New watch day! Seiko speedtimer “golden panda” but my partner has called it the peanut butter dial lol. I’ve owed the black version before but much prefer this one, a more interesting colour and more contrast between the dial and sub dials. My new gym and outdoor watch!

Anyone looking to buy a Rolex Datejust 126334 fluted bezel, Azzuro Blue on Jubilee? Few weeks old, almost like new. Thinking about selling it for $11k (less than what I paid with taxes) since I don’t like flippers in our hobby.

Super beautiful watch, just thinking it’s a bit flashy for me.

Went in to check compare sizes for an Aqua Terra (green dial) but now torn between that and Moonwatch Sapphire (manual wind but the case in the back is just 😍)

Surprisingly the Moonwatch felt smaller (even though it’s 42mm vs 41mm Aqua terra) but I’m not sure about the manual wind tbh - worried I’d break it

This is going to be my main watch for the next 20+ years so I want to make sure I pick correctly!

What would you pick and why?
