A Guide to Pre-Owned at Laings

With a variety of styles and designs from big name brands including Patek Philippe, Rolex, Omega, Cartier and more there is something to suit everyone in our Pre-Owned collection.

The Perks of Pre-Owned

The benefits of buying a pre-loved piece are endless, as well as being a fraction of the price you can often find rare or even discontinued pieces and at Laings excellence is always assured. All of our watches go through intensive authentication checks with our in house, brand certified, watchmaker to ensure their legitimacy and supreme quality. Every item is meticulously cleaned and serviced before selling to ensure top condition and once sold you are covered against any manufactural faults with our two-year guarantee.

Ex-Display Watches

One of the first questions asked by customers when buying Pre-Owned timepieces is the age of the watch. They are frequently thought to be old watches from long-forgotten times, however, this is not always the case.

Within our collection, we host many ‘young’ pre-owned watches that are less than two years old and even some ‘ex-display’ models. Ex-Display watches are timepieces that were once shown in our store windows but may have signs of wear or need to be moved out to make space for new models. They are a great way to purchase an almost new timepiece at a heavily discounted price, offering up to 30% off.

Powered by the Breitling Caliber 01 automatic movement the BREITLING TRANSOCEAN 43MM GENTS WATCH reinterprets the pure design of the classic 1950s and 60s chronographs in a resolutely contemporary style. It retails for £6,330 but at Laings this ex-display model is priced at £4,500.

The CARTIER TANK FRANCAISE LADIES WATCH updated the legacy of the Tank wristwatch with a chain-link bracelet and retails for £6,250 but at Laings this ex-display model is priced at £4,960.

We understand that the world of luxury timepieces can be nerve-wracking, whether it’s your first time purchasing or not, but with over 175 year of experience, Laings can offer you peace of mind when buying from us. The team at Laings have a wealth of knowledge of all the leading Horlogerie brands and can ensure that you only buy the best.

Keep an eye on our pre-owned collection to make sure you always see our most recent pieces and don’t miss out on the special watch you’re after. You may even finally find that piece that you’ve been after for years.
