Good evening gents, I'm looking to go and get a watch soon, just wondering if anybody knows of some good second hand watch dealers in the Lincolnshire area or within say an hours drive from Lincoln.

I'm looking to spend around £500 or maybe more for the right one, and I'd like something like a seamaster, so any suggestions of similar type of watches also greatly received.

Thanks

Couple of watch shops in Nottingham, not sure if they deal secondhand though.

Cope in Nottingham certainly do second hand (mainly Heuer and Omega) - I think they have a shop in Newark as well.

Surely there must be someone in Lincoln itself (seems like just the place for a tasty little jewellers shop?

There is a couple, just not a massive selection. Want to see what different watches look like on my arm, as I am afflicted with skinny wrists.

Thanks for suggestions though guys.

Good choice on the Longines, from what i've read highly under-rated.
Yep, 2 years in the Lotus.
Still working for Siemens?
As far as watches go, once you've got the bug your screwed!

I'm up to 7!!!

Cheers, feels nice and well put together. Not sure on the colour as there was a black face/bezel one too(so may be an exchange on cards) I originally had my heart set on a seamaster but this just seemed that bit more exclusive and like you say under rated. Only watch fans seem to know of longines.

Not at siemens, am at turbine efficiency off doddington road at min.

I know what you mean on watch front, bug has well and truly bit.

Might be worth a PM to CmdrBond I think he's in Lincoln and he will know.
