Best place to buy used Rolex?

Hi Everyone,

I’m looking to buy my first Rolex, I’ve currently got a Tudor Black Bay and I’m ready for something different.

Question is, where are the best places to buy used Rolex’s?

I see lots of them at approved used dealers, which is definitely an option due to me not having to worry about fakes, but I know there would be better deals elsewhere.

Not looking for anything super fancy, just like £5-6k, Datejust or something.

Call one of our trusted sellers here. I’ve dealt with Takuya, in the past. You can have what you want, within a few days.

Looks like the OP is in the UK so this probably wont be an option. It’s a shame there aren’t any trusted sellers outside of the US here (that I’m aware of)

The "best" place is surely an authorized dealer. You can take comfort in the authenticity, servicing, etc.
Cheapest place would be a different answer. If you choose a different route than AD, make sure you do your homework. Good luck to you.
