    As well as the Merkur, I'm also selling a nice Seiko SNKK29J1.
    Im only selling it because it's just a bit small for my wrist so I haven't worn it.
    Bought this year and it comes with an extra Barton elite silicone strap blue/light blue colour. Im selling it for €70.

    I'm selling my Oris Big Crown Pointer Pointer Date. 40mm case, red dial/steel bracelet version. Bought the watch 2 months ago - putting it towards a new watch. I love it but I've got to make space. Still under Oris warranty etc.

    https://www.oris.ch/en/watch/oris-big-crown-pointer-date/01-754-7741-4068-07-8-20-22

    Looking for 1200.

    Also selling an apple watch series 3 WIFI + CELLULAR. Watch is practically brand new. Apple sent me a replacement a few months ago for a cracked screen and I've not been wearing it as I've bought a few new watches and it's getting no wrist time. 38mm, black sport strap as well as olive green strap. Looking for 245

    I'm trying to sell my Stowa Chronograph. It's a somewhat reluctant sale but I accept that the watch is just not in my regular rotation and it's too nice to just be left sitting in my watch box. Good news for whoever buys it.

    Link to adverts:

    https://www.adverts.ie/dress/stowa-chronograph-1938-two-stowa-crocodile-straps-deployant-box-and-papers/14564620

    Comes with box, papers, two croco straps, Stowa Deployant on one strap, Stowa buckle fitted to the other. The straps are 100 euros each from Stowa. Both have lots of life in them as they were lightly worn and at 22mm are very transferable to any other watch. They gre one is quite dressy. The dark brown with white stitching more relaxed. The watch was fully serviced including refinishing the case, by Stowa in 2016. No dings/scratches at all to the case/crystal. Everything works as it should.

    At 1000 I'm genuinely at the bottom end of my price already. That's less than half price for the package, for a watch which is as new.

    I have eyed it for a long time! Sadly just a little to big for me!

    1000 seems to a very fair price.

    Cheers! I'm kind of half-hoping no one offers the asking.

    Sure let me know if you ever want to try it on anyway. Im.based Dublin city centre, Northside. We can talk bollix about watches if nothing else.

    It is fairly thick alright (inevitable when housing a valjoux 7750) and that's frankly one of the reasons I'm selling. It's kind of a...dress-casual watch?

    Good luck with those Homer. I wish I had spotted the Armida when I was looking on there a couple of weeks ago for a dive watch. Don't know how I didn't see it.

    I shipped a watch to the UK yesterday morning using DHL Express and insured it. The insurance fee was 1% of the value of the watch which I felt was fair.

    This morning I received notification that the watch had already been delivered.

    Was it an account already registered with dhl for shipping or were you just a one off customer sending a single item ?

    That’s a strange one, I have a pile of emails from them telling me they wouldn’t even quote me for the item as they don’t ship watches for private customers and their insurance only applies for registered businesses, I was looking for pricing for the U.K. then Europe and then the rest of the world so I could flip a few things on chrono24, I didnt fancy selling my date-just, day date etc on adverts


    Maybe something has changed with dhl recently

    That is strange. The only difference I can think of is that I went in person to DHL Express.

    FYI - This is what I received from WatchFinder UK when I asked about shipping: "Most my Irish customers use companies like DHL, Fed-Ex or UPS to send their watches but any courier would be fine." It doesn't mention insurance however.

    Howya lads. Just trying to pass this Seiko on.
    It was too small for my wrist when I bought it from creation.
    I need a 45mm +, for comfort.
    I've lowered the price today to a bargain imo.
    It has an unusual face which I think is a nice summer wear.
    Im building up the funds for a new Gshock.

    Would you post for 60?
    Not sure I'm mad on the colour of face, but might take a punt on it

    You could post in a jiffy bag rather than box to save on postage.

    Love the PRS 516 above, mine is still one of my favourites. Steinhart is lovely too.

    Ceist agam daoibh, lads:

    I have a Grey Dawn Seiko Samurai, which I love, but really isn't seeing much wrist time. If I were to move it on, what would be a reasonable price for it? The reason I ask is that I see some on Chrono24 going for mad money - 800 and above sometimes, but generally around 700. These are untouched, plastic still on etc.

    I would state I'm not looking to make a buck on the watch because of this, but nor do I want to find out two weeks later that I've sold for x and the lad who bought it off me is selling for a profit of 200 or something because I'm an idiot who doesn't know what's what.

    I paid retail for it, it's in great nick apart from the usual swirls on the bracelet and has about 18 month warranty left.

    Any ideas?

    Are you planning on putting it on Chrono24, keep in mind posting abroad can be a headache?

    You can do a search on ebay to show what items do actually sell for, might be worth doing a search with the ref number and see what people are actually paying.

    Nope, I'd be keeping it local - Adverts (yay!), here (hopefully). I'll have a look on eBay - thanks. Tbh I never even consider eBay when I'm looking to buy or sell stuff! I'm just curious about the prices as I have no idea how it might work on these limited editions.

    Keep in mind though that is a genuine limited edition and euro market only.There is a large seiko collectors market in Asia that will pay a small premium for it .Cheapest I've seen is 600euro

    Thanks for the replies, lads, appreciate it. I would stress I am still on the fence and my questions were tentative, but I'll have a think about it for a few days and come back to those who've expressed an interest. Hope that's ok.

    In the meantime, here's a couple of snaps of the actual watch which I posted in the other thread a while back. I'll put up some more current ones soon to show the "wear" on it.

    I've a Timex Marlin mechanical that I purchased in Dec 17 in their first round of reissues. It's a beautiful piece but I really underestimated the size of it. I've worn it for about seven evenings since I got it (and mostly on a steel mesh strap) but it's been sitting pretty apart from that. It is a beautiful watch, I just know I'm never going to wear it.

    MarlinTSAd2.jpg

    Selling it with the original strap, box and a Watchgecko steel mesh strap for someone regular to here for €120 before I go to Adverts and have to put a haggle-tax onto it. Can put up actual images of the watch tomorrow if there's interest.

    Am I correct in saying it's a 34mm, would be interested to see a wrist shot of it if you don't mind.

    Yep, 34mm which is really why it never worked for me - I'm 6'4 and wrists are over 8"

    It is a beautiful timepiece, espec when the sun hits the dial and it takes on a goldy-hue. Pics attached.

    A Seiko Tuna homage for sale - edit: provisionally marking this as sold.

    Clearly a subtle piece as you can see, coming in at only 47mm across and in a delicate shade of green. Has a Seiko automatic movement and rated to 200m. Bezel is quite stiff to turn, I don't know if that's common for shrouded models.

    100 ono.
