Been looking at Omega watches (speedmaster), but all I see on eBay and Amazon is $3k plus. Anyone have any insight on where to get them and less price? Thanks

of course back in the day I got some really nice copies. But I've always bought Real as well as I collect watches

over the past 5+ year I have been buying from these guys, https://www.authenticwatches.com/

All brand new and 100% real, comes with all the papers, etc...

Now you can check on the prices now and sign up for their email list because they will run Specials at really great discounts on Brands
so if you don't like the price now, you can wait for their sales
Shop around, and match their prices. make sure you have the right Model number because there are so many different models/ sizes, etc of the same watch some times.

Thank you. I had a damn cool Girard Perragaux Ferrari watch years ago that I wish I never sold

Also I would NEVER trust Ebay to buy a Top Brand watch
so many stories of fake selling as Real

I will never understand why people would pay six thousand or more dollars for a watch....enlighten me, please! just look at your phone if you need to know what time it is!?

Wearing an expensive watch has nothing to do with knowing what time it is......its all about looking good & status symbol, & some of these expensive watches actually look really good on your wrist.

im kind of in the same boat at drpugilist on this one. I like watches, but I would never spend more than a couple hundred on one max. Just couldn't see dropping 5k-10k on a watch unless I was a millionaire and just pissing away cash. I like Citizen Eco Drive watches and normally rotate 2-3 watches for work.

I To collect watches, if you know what you are buying like anything you can make money.

I bought a Rolex 25th anniversary when the first came out, I since sold it for 4,300.00 more than I paid for it. I also bought one of the first Porsche design watch’s in a unique color and band....Paid 2,500.00 for it, worth over 10K TODAY.

I have tons of watches, if I like it, I'll get it, its not even about price sometimes. But yea, some of these watches can really get up there!

I've been looking for a Rolex Daytona, can't even find one unless I'm willing to pay $5000 above retail, which is what they are going for.

My Rolex Sub I got new in 2007 is worth more now that what I paid for it, my JLC is also worth more than what I paid for it 4 years ago. Could I get my money back, of course I can, if I wanted to sell it. I have an apple watch, citizen eco drive, Fendi, all worth under $500


For a good watch, great price also, check these out.
