Speedmaster pro question

Been seeing a lot of photos of these recently online and I'm not really a fan of chronograph watches, this is probably the only one I would consider buying. Think is I have a Rolex GMTc and getting a AP diver at end of this month so thinking a chronograph would complete my collection.
I've seen these are around £3300 new with discount available just wanted to ask what they sell for pre owned ? Do they hold there value

I think that price sounds about right for current market. Authorized dealers tend to negotiate a bit on price, not so the boutiqes. Preowned tend to float around between $1900-$3100 USD, depending on vintage and condition. There are a lot of them available. Kringkily is one of the top members of the forum to contact about preowned Omegas.

Buy right, and they not only hold their value, but may increase. I have two LEs, that if I sold now, would make a very tidy profit on what I bought them for. I would probably do better than break even on my standard 3570.50 if I sold that too, but that is after 16 years of ownership.

I'm sorry, but I don't recall. It was a strap I bought many years ago for a cheap watch. When I gave that watch away last year I thought the strap looked good on the Speedy, so that's its home for now. The strap has no markings.

I'm in the uk so that would be £1900 - £2500 seems like a lot of watch for the money. Might need to pick one up. Anyone recommend a pre owned dealer in the uk ?

Go pre-owned and save yourself a lot over an AD. Nice watches with a lot of history.
