Hey Guys,

I need your help, I am looking for my first real watch and of course I like the Black No Date Submariner. I found a preowned Z serial number pre COSC complete with box, tags etc in excellent condition for a price of $3000. It sounds like a great deal to me, this is my first watch and I was actually looking at Omegas because the subs were a little to expensive for me, but at this price I am ready to take the plunge, what do you think? any input would be appreciated, thanks!!!

Welcome to the forum.

Sounds like a good deal to me

now go and get it before someone else does.

I recently got a used no-date in great shape for about $3,000. Your deal sounds solid, as long as you have no authenticity questions.

Welcome to TRF.
Your watch sounds good, suggest you get it checked before buying just to be sure

If it's legit, sounds like a good deal to me!

Just remember, buy the seller, not the watch!

Hey guys thanks for the reply, yes it a good seller also, hes known on this site and one other, checked out his ref and all, I am not really worried about the authenticity because of his reputation, thanks for all the welcomes, and im excited its my first nice watch and first rolex, would liked to have purchased a brand new date verision of it but its much more money, thanks again!!!

Wow. Great deal....

Have you seen the watch in the flesh?

Sellers "ratings" are all over the map. I have seen photos of watches online for watches a seller claims are LNIB - like new in box - but you can CLEARLY see the dings!!

You can also ask the seller to send you photos of the sides of a watch etc.

Now all this presupposes the innards are in good shape. A Z series is recent so if all is genuine, you should be OK.

As Mark suggests, know your Seller
