Pre-Owned, Ex-Display & Vintage Watches

The three are not the same thing. Ex-display watches are unworn stock that sat in a case, normally sold below the recommended retail price with the manufacturer’s guarantee intact. Pre-owned watches have been worn, and come with the retailer’s own warranty rather than the maker’s — Goldsmiths give two years. Vintage pieces are sold as they stand, with servicing history down to the seller. Every listing states which it is, and the saving against the same watch new where we have both.

Pre-Owned, Ex-Display & Vintage Watches holds 321 models across 37 brands, from £60 to £139,995. Half cost less than £6,650, and a quarter less than £2,950. 238 of 321 are automatic. 115 are stocked by more than one retailer, giving 555 offers in total. Rolex lists more references here than any other brand. Prices are checked nightly against the retailers’ own feeds.
