In terms of watches, the impression nowadays is that it’s all about hi-tech: can this watch measure my heart rate, receive a text or even Facetime a friend? In fact, people are increasingly keen to revisit a bygone age by looking for vintage watches for sale. But why?

Simply put, vintage watches have a style that their modern counterparts lack. Design, what’s cool and what’s not, constantly revisits the past for its inspiration. Vintage can also mark you out as an individual, not following the herd in pursuit of the latest fashion. Next, consider the trend for ripped jeans: we like our clothes to look as if they’ve seen an active and exciting lifestyle. It’s the same for watches: a pre owned Rolex comes with a history all of its own and can convey the impression that it, like its owner, has seen a thing or two in its time.

 

Then, there’s the fact that they’re better value for money. Whereas the latest expensive watch loses its face value immediately, older vintage watches for sale can retain or even grow in value after their purchase. Vintage is simply better all round!
