I sold this ROLEX SUBMARINER in 3 MINUTES!

[@pauldaviesantiques1556]

A great deal for everyone - your client, you and Guy. Selling into the trade is often the best option: no commission, no come backs, instant pay-out. Thanks for sharing, David.

[@helenabiesma5560]

brilliant - love the showing profits and the dealer gets etc - 🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@seiko_monster_legend]

Beautiful example David, i have a 2018 version bluesy.

[@DavidHarperAntiques]

Wonderful and I’m jealous…in a good way!

[@kyndrydspyryt3867]

The two-tone is highly desirable. Some people prefer the pre-ceramic too

[@DavidHarperAntiques]

I’m beginning to prefer the bi colour model. Less of them around

[@helenabiesma5560]

I have a vintage Omega ladies - not in great condition and does not work - I know it is complete as a friend looked at it and I know now you need to find the number is it worth investigating

[@DavidHarperAntiques]

Yes it is, but it’s the gents watches that have really taken off. Omega, a super brand though. Speak to Guy

[@robertadowns217]

That was a very interesting video. Good commission, David! I loved the colour of the Rolex. I wear my Armani with great pleasure, but it's not in the Rolex price range!!

[@mrglock2313]

I want a blue 2-tone!!! Best looking in my opinion.

[@1MrErling]

indeed

[@chocksaway100]

Fascinating to watch that deal going down very professional great to work with nice decent people thank you David for your detailed explanation.

[@DavidHarperAntiques]

Thank you too

[@DavidHarperAntiques]

Interesting comments on prices here. Will Submariners keep going up in value I wonder?

[@samstraughan9054]

Informative content!

[@thomasbradley464]

I have this same exact watch.. 1999 5 digit preceramic.. would love to sell to put towards the newest version of it.. I prefer the modern look and also something in mint condition

[@DavidHarperAntiques]

Let me know if you do want to sell it!

[@craigfroude8109]

I have the same watch and it’s a “Swiss Only” Dial… quite rare and will only increase in value more than a normal Swiss made or Tritium Dials.. I think the dealer has actually done well here..

[@DavidHarperAntiques]

Sounds gorgeous

[@adriankingdon3055]

I’m starting to sell direct to dealers more and more these days especially if I have anything really good as the risk of getting ripped off on eBay by a buyer is ever present. Quite often I’ll tell the dealer exactly what I paid for an item and they are happy to pay me a good profit on top as they know that I’ll be straight back on the phone to them when I get another item in that suits their shop.

[@DavidHarperAntiques]

Absolutely right, that works. Guy knew exactly how much I was making. He didn’t try to negotiate. The price worked for us all, so we just got on with it and we’ll do it again !

[@matthewcoupeofficial]

Technically not a full set as the Subs from that era should have a mini metal anchor too.

[@DavidHarperAntiques]

Good info, thank you

[@OriginalNethead]

Selling something worth real money on eBay ... NO, just don't. Seventeen years' experience talking here. Never sell anything on line if you can't afford to lose the money and the merch. eBay does not protect the seller; neither does the payment method, who protects their client. Even if the client is a thief. I'd have resold locally too. My personal "gamer" is a circa 2000 Swiss Army on its third band. Resale pretty well the price of a new battery.

[@adriankingdon3055]

Good work!

[@parapokwins]

Guy will 100% sell for more than £9700 i am pretty confident you could of got more for your client if you would of made a few more costless phone calls !

[@DavidHarperAntiques]

No, that’s what it’s worth and Guy will happily sell to you for £9700

[@mikeriordan6940]

I wouldn't go on Dickinsons real deal, some of those dealers haven't got a clue or they're trying to get something for nothing, so then you'll end up in the auction and they'll scim a lot of the top

[@thebasictimes]

Good sir he robed you, that is Swiss only diel... ;) extra 1k...

[@danderose1636]

clickbait

[@ttopcat264]

Why would you not just buy one of rolex, ok you have to wait, but your getting a new watch and a lot cheaper

[@DavidHarperAntiques]

That’s if you can even get on the waiting list. Try it, it’s almost impossible! But, owning a vintage one is also very desirable

[@seiko_monster_legend]

Haha, you wont get one unless you have some previous watch buying history with an authorised dealer.

[@jameswilson8820]

@@seiko_monster_legend Rubbish

[@Alex-cw3rz]

I don't believe you can't buy this specific watch anymore brand new, closest is a Sea-Dweller although they don't have that with that nice blue dial

[@seiko_monster_legend]

@@jameswilson8820 Really James, i have purchase history and 4 other Rolex sports all from my AD and still had to wait 8 months for a bluesy, so go ahead please tell me how you get a new one from the AD straight away.
