With the success of pre-owned vehicle sales it was only a matter of time before pre-owned watches became mainstream.

Topper was at the forefront with their Pre-Owned Select.

Maybe this entire hobby has jumped the shark.

I imagine Bloomingdale's prices are anywhere from 25% to 30% above the market average.

Crazy. Trying to sell to the uneducated buyer who just wants a Rolex. A new 116613 retails at $13,400, so I'm sure Bloomingdale's tells buyers that they're saving almost $1,000 by buying used. Sounds good to someone who doesn't know any better.
