Get the Sub but don’t pay anywhere near top of budget.
I can’t find a safe requirement from a quick look. Where was it mentioned stefmcd?
M&S is the most flexible out there if you stick to the limits. It is also cheap.
Hoping to join for the first time in a while
In my experience, watchmakers and ADs are no better. I’ve seen watches come back from Rolex with nibbles at the front of the lugs.
As long as there are no deep gouges, surface scratches from...
Subdial and Watches of Whitby are both excellent.
I’d deal with them over the big boys any day of the week.
I think you’ll be presently surprised by current prices too.
Laughable, the prices have already risen massively over the last two years. Are they mad?
Prices have moved further than people are thinking here. Subdial is a good barometer. Fair enough, not amazing condition:

Interesting!
I guess it’s £150-200 service vs sourcing a used replacement for £250-275. Doesn’t seem worth it to me.
Quick Q for the technical folk.
I have a Hamilton Khaki Mechanical, about three years old so out of warranty.
It doesn’t wind. If you turn the crown, it moves with no resistance or sound etc. ...

I’ve never found my root beer to be particularly flashy tbh, the rose gold is much more subdued than the yellow gold equivalents
Don’t forget, it’s only a watch. Don’t overthink it. Unless it’s rare, you can always buy one back if you miss it.
That was also my reading, I thought that was more of a general market observation - not clear he meant himself.
Second half of the article on AP does undermine the first half though.

Unfortunately the ‘can’t have previously owned it’ part makes things tricky for me haha.
I like these games though. Going all pre-owned here.
Sub £10k, it has to be a Sub and I’ve had most of...
I’ve asked them about certificates of sale before. A simple one pager with the details on it and a signature is the requirement but it’s only needed in the event of a claim. I’ve usually asked the...

You can still get their consent for forum sales. EBay is a no go given they don’t cover sending to the...
Agreed, I’ve been surprised by the responses too in that context.
I think most of us on here probably do. I wouldn’t enjoy buying something I knew was going to completely tank. I tend to stick to relatively safe stuff but fortunately I also like that stuff.
