Guidance on selling - where, etc.

[Nick M]

Have mostly added to my small collection over the past few years, but contemplating shifting a couple of watches to fund the purchase of another. Maybe not right now, but at some stage when things are a tad less uncertain.

They're nothing amazing (Sinn and a Ball) but they're both limited editions - not under any illusions as to their price, but if they fund 50-60% of the watch I'm contemplating then I'll be reasonably happy.

Just looking for guidance on the most sensible places to try and move them on - not going anywhere near eBay or Watchfinder - to try and minimise possible scam artists. Thinking Chrono24, but not sure how a newly registered private seller would be perceived on there, but are there any decent forums / sites I should take a look at ?

Not in any great rush, but just looking at options.

Thanks all

Chrono24 is probably best in this instance, but I would probably wait until things settle if you can.

Can try PH and TZ (post limits apply).

Dealers are not likely to bid high in the current climate either.

thanks - not in any rush, but had a recollection that some sites may have post counts, hence maybe needing to lay some groundwork.

I've had reasonable success with 2 £1K-ish price range watches on e-bay,

Clear descriptions and collection only,

Both times the person enquired - visited and bank transfered whilst sipping a freshly made cuppa,

Just my experience

Watchmaster.com seems a reputable outlet. Offered me a very fair price for a GMTII

Christopher Ward forum, has lots of non CW watches for sale, and watches wanted section

Watchfinder may be interested in the Sinn but are unlikely to even quote on the Ball, Both not being a SS Rolex are likely to have derisery offers
Still think Chrono24 & e-bay are your best options
