Over the last couple of months dealers flooding the classifieds by advertising twenty high end (ish) watches at a time, I'm not actually sure dealers is the right word as core business seems to be selling cars, most adverts over the years have been people on here selling, is it just me who thinks something has changed.

High end watch dealing is little different than car selling.

If you can find stock at a decent price there is a margin to be made from the sea of addicted watch buyers.

If you can fund 10 or 20 Rolexes a month and churn them at £300-£500 margin a go, that's a decent sideline - especially if your database of Porsche buyers also love watches - which many do.
