| Post subject: | Buying a pre-owned Seawolf II |
Hello everyone! Ever since I sold my gray dial Avenger in late 2013 to fund my fiance's engagement ring, I've been dying for another chunky Breitling and I think its time to pull the trigger on one. Just wanted to check in with the experts to make sure I am making the right decision. Looking at a pre-owned Seawolf II in excellent condition (96-98%), gray dial on pro III bracelet. What are your opinions on buying pre-owned versus brand new? Obviously I dont mind buying pre-owned even with a few marks on the bracelet because I will be wearing it almost daily anyway. I can't seem to find a NEW Seawolf II on pro III bracelet for under $3k (AuthenticWatches.com). So what do you guys think? Thanks in advance! |

Well that's 10 months longer than the warranty you will get with AuthenticWatches! I think most of us have bought pre owned at some point and it certainly avoids some of the depreciation you get buying new. |

Oh, I had no idea when buying from AuthenticWatches they did not come with a factory warranty. I totally agree about the depreciation, sort of like buying a current year pre-owned vehicle with some miles on it

That sounds like a good deal, I would do it. I love the Seawolf, I've owned two and would love to add another sometime down the road Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

They offer their own in house warranty but as they aren't authorised that's worthless other than for replacement or refund. |
