About to pull the trigger on a GMT IIC to replace my Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean, this will join my 16030, for which I am trying to locate a super jubilee bracelet for (any advice here is appreciated).

Sorry for being long winded but here are my two questions:
For the GMTIIC should I go new or mint condition used, the difference in price is about $500

The second question is can anybody point me in the right direction for a new super jubilee bracelet for my SS 16030. Thanks in advance for your help!

For $500 I would go brand new, but it's not like that's an insignificant amount of money so it's up to you. If you buy used, then you can use the $500 to service it in 5 years.

Thanks, any comments on the super jubilee on the 16030? Thanks.

You should be able to do about $750-$1,000 better used if with an M serial. I got mine close to mint, and within a month put more marks on it than what it came with. I used to see these going for $5250 or so fairly often.

I'd go with the new one! Good Luck!

MortgageGuy · 15 April 2011, 06:14 AM

Without a doubt grab the new one... IMO up to $1k price difference NEW is the way to go

Jeme · 15 April 2011, 06:58 AM

Both the new and used are random serial numbers, I do know the used one was sold new in September 2010. Thanks. Going new I think

nauticajoe · 15 April 2011, 08:55 AM

For $500, go new.

In the, US you will have a hard time finding a dealer who will sell you a super jubilee. Cost is about $1400 if you can.

slickrick68 · 15 April 2011, 10:35 AM

For that small price difference I say grab the new one.

For expensive watches, I would always buy 2nd Hand. Every penny counts!

SkyKing31 · 15 April 2011, 10:56 AM

500 bucks? .. Get the new watch
