Buying a used Tudor
I am considering buying a 2 year old used (but mint condition...according to a trusted seller on this forum) Black Bay with in house movement . I am buying this as a watch that I can wear while doing work around the house instead of risking scratching my BLNR.
My question is should I buy used and save some money (Tudors warranty is only 2 years so it would be out) or should I spend the extra and buy new? Thanks in advance for everyone’s input. |

I think it depends on the price difference.
I don't know how much the watch is new or second hand, but if the difference is not much I'd buy new. How much is the difference? |

I prefer new
Besides you might be surprised how much you will like the Tudor :-)

If the potential cost of service or repair is greater than the savings you'll make then it's quite clear to buy new instead.

Buy new if you can. I love my BB S&G but it wears so much bigger then a 40mm oyster. You should try one on before buying. Good luck.
