The best place I could suggest is a jeweller. Most will take a trade in on an older watch if someone is upgrading. What sort of age of vintage are you looking for? what type? what metal? is original B+P a must.

I might suggest Andy at timeman.net. I bought the one I highlighted and another Oyster from him last month. His is a true gentleman.

There are several dealers that specialise in vintage pieces. Decide what reference you are looking for and study the details of the piece you are looking for.
Go to the links section here for a place to start. http://www.doubleredseadweller.com/ Vintage sections on various fora are also a good place to shop. Good luck. |
