I was under the weather the other day and and spent some time submitting some watches for sale on some well known preowned dealers sites to see what they are "buying". Grand Seiko is either a HARD PASS or TRADE ONLY. You cannot get a dealer to give you CASH for one. They will not take one in inventory for CASH.

I think except for a few top models, the dealers are 100% out of the GS business.

Rolex, while softening a bit on secondary market, this means that you may get paid less than retail for some models, but they more than likely will generate a cash offer. Other brands? Nah. Back to nobody wanting them again..
