Buy from reputable and trusted seller

When I started this hobby, I was constantly advised against buying from the Internet and even pre own shops. So just be careful. There's no full proof method. Gd luck!

Hi Oceanklassik,

I do agree with you in buying from the Internet, if it is too good to be true and usually is a bogus one. So do not fall for the trap. Once you hand over the money over the internet, the chances of you seeing your money back if something does go wrong is pretty slim. Go and find your own reputable sellers. I have seen sellers/ dealers who swapped or modified parts of Rolexes of a lower grade to fit into a higher grade casing and dial. So please be aware and do your research on the watch before you part money for it.
Goodluck.

pre-owned = 2nd hand = used.

Guess the word 'pre-owned' was coined to make 2nd hand/used products sound nicer to the intended buyer.

Yup

[surestik]

thanks for clarification.

wondering why the wordings "pre owned" is used on 2nd hand rolex, where the watch was really OWNED by someone before.

Pre-Owned are likely to mean watches that has been worn by previous owners.

"not brand new but never used/worn" are you referring to NOS where the words brand new means not current series/edition.

I am new to this forum and trying to learn.

Does that mean those watches for sale under "pre-owned" ;

1) not brand new, but never being used/worn ;
or 2) 2nd hand item being worn by another previous owner ?

[mlee8088]

Very good point. This is very common in preowned Rolexes esp

those gals at peng kwee are just ah lians with no brains!

reminds me of banks hiring pretty gals to sell unit trust. you think those gals know anything about finance? most of them haven't even bought a single stock in their life!

[shawn77]

The selling price is inclusive of those overheads like service etc...would you pay someone who can't even pronounce the brand they're selling ? (rolex=LOLEK...omg) Not putting in any effort at all. All they can do is stand there and be bimbo.
