The world of secondhand watches can feel like a minefield—shady dealers, misleading ads, and overpriced inventory everywhere you turn. In this video, I’m breaking down the truth about buying from secondhand dealers: the good, the bad, and the things most dealers hope you’ll never figure out.
From spotting scams to knowing when a deal is too good to be true, I’ll show you how to navigate the market and avoid rookie mistakes. Whether you’re ready to invest in your first luxury piece or just testing the waters, this video gives you the knowledge you need to shop smarter.
Let’s cut through the noise and talk about what really matters when you’re buying a high-end watch.
