As a part-time watch dealer, basically a Corona dealer, for a couple of years I find buying inventory rather difficult. Especially in Switzerland which is a smaller market. And of course it would take a lot of capital to have the stock I wanted. 😮

So if "buy the seller" is the rule in the watch business, as opposed to going with the cheapest offering, why would you give the advice to find a cheap online accountant? A good accountant will make you far more money than you pay them in fees. Are you likely to get that level of value from some cheapo online service??

I've been thinking about buying and selling watches. I like watches, but don't know too much about them, I kinda have sentimental value towards watches not necessarily for their price or how nice they look. I am a bit cautious and think what if I cant sell the watch and just spend a thousand or more on that watch

start with a small investment and buy items you like for yourself if it goes wrong. If you have found an item that sells just increase the numbers. Do your research on prices and your markup. I would say if you dont have a 100% markup its not a great marked to be in, the higher the better. Your mindset should be lets to a trial with this product and if it dont sell you sell it at what you bought it for.

@@gilbertorodriguez6203 yes limit your downside and trying something out to see if it works. also limit the investment vs profit scale. No point in having a big risk upfront for like 10% return. You may gain but there is a bigger probability that it will fail and then you need 10x gain to recover your expenses. better to bay for 1 and sell for 2-3 then you have a 300% markup. You can scale that quickly.

Do you mean buying directly from authorized dealers at retail price? Or used watches? What exactly do you mean by 'big discount '? If buying submariners, Daytona's, nautilus, some royal oaks at retail, new ... You will most definitely turn a decent profit ... Certain Rolex Daytonas and specific subs are more limited in production numbers and worth holding on to as even with market correction and drop in retail prices, those meteorite or platinum Daytonas will still demand over MSRP
