Many AD also sell pre-owned watches. You can also look at watchrecon.

Do you mean entry level as in a price point? If price is your prime consideration, some watch shows may be a good option. But I feel this forum’s long-time, trusted sellers are the best place. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I just got this guy shipped yesterday from Bob’s! It was quick and easy with free overnight delivery. It’s basically all preowned.

Check out some of the new Tudor Basel releases at that price point! They are awesome!
I wouldn’t purchase a Rolex at that price point...just my opinion |

You can always look at Chrono24 to get an idea of what you want and then compare prices with trusted sellers on this forum. You will probably do better online than a physical store unless you have pawn shops that have quality stuff in your area. There are bargains to be had and it doesn’t hurt to take a look.

Look at the sale section on this forum. Your budget is Datejust territory. I don’t think DavidSW has any listed in that range at the moment.

I am open. I like stainless steel watches with black, white dials maybe grey. Also, I like having a date. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I’d take a look at one of the trusted sellers, particularly DavidSW as I can personally recommend him. Haven’t dealt with the other but I’m sure they are fine to deal with as well.

Also for that price I would suggest you look for 16234, 16233,16570 and even 14060. Nearly everything has gone up and you’ll find much more to choose from if you bump your range to $4-5k but if you’re patient and check everyday you will definitely find a great deal. You won’t find a Sub for less than $5k through any jeweler but you may find one privately. I have seen a few in the $4-5k range on Craigslist. Even a 16800. You should learn how to tell apart a real one from the fakes before you do this.
