As you may have noticed, we we're offline this morning. This was caused by the "Thanks" plug-in going rogue and using up way too many server resources. This triggered an automatic suspension by our hosting provider as they thought it was a malicious attack. The "Thanks" plug-in has been disabled, hopefully temporarily so I can determine if that was indeed the cause, and take steps to prevent it from happening in the future.

I apologize for the disruption and for any confusion that may have caused.

HUISABH! Used/Private Sale Watches - gotta be quick

Post by cortman »

Trying out a concept here: links to good prices on used and private sales. I almost exclusively buy used watches, and see plenty of deals that I would love to pass on to my fellow Men on Time. Naturally these deals usually don't last long at all so if you see it here and want it act fast.

Disclaimer: I know almost none of these sellers. Do your research. Buy the seller.

Kicking it off with this: this is a quite decent price on a terrific Seiko SBDC053 dive watch. The big value adder here is the bracelet. Offers welcome per seller.

Love the idea. Here's a mini turtle on a bracelet for $275 on Reddit. Like the Seiko above, the bracelet makes this a deal:

An SKX with no apparent alignment issues is a moderately good deal; worth an offer.

Here's an SRP639 yellow fin baby tuna for $350 that ends in an hour with no bids. I believe you'd have no problem at least getting your money back if you listed this on WUS or Reddit.

I'd get this right now, but we've had a couple unexpected expenses so I've got no watch budget this month.

My pleasure pal. Spending y'all's money is almost as fun and way cheaper than mine. [emoji23]

Very cool idea, cortman! I have been interested in those for a while and that is a great price.

Please...someone buy that watch! I told myself that I was going to spend the next few days reading and not looking at watches :roll:

Cool looking vintage Citizen Promaster 8200-824393 for $191.30 on Etsy. Hard to say whether this is a good price or not since I can’t find others exactly like it. I have to admit I’m tempted myself.

It’s worth checking out this sellers inventory as there are some great looking pieces (no affiliation). Be warned that he/she appears to be polishing some of these watches prior to listing so read the descriptions.

If indeed this has been serviced this is a fantastic way to get a dress watch. Great price.

Not sure how this one's still around. $90 for an Orient Ray 2 with all accessories.
