If you’ve followed the Urban Gentry channel for a while, you’ll know that I love buying and selling watches, especially on eBay. From hunting for the best bargains to snagging fantastic deals, it has always been fun and easy. Many of you, the good Gentry, have reached out to me for tips on how to find the best watches and deals on eBay, so today we’ll take a look at my personal buying experience from the start of the watch search to the final unboxing, with lots of helpful tips in between.

Part of what makes buying luxury watches on eBay even more pleasurable now is their new Authenticity Guarantee, which takes the guesswork out of the purchase process and makes the entire experience so much easier. Whether you’re already an eBay buyer pro, or new to buying watches, this is the video for you! Happy watch hunting, and thank you to eBay for reaching out and sponsoring this video.

Wanted to say thanks so much for introducing me to the world of watches, as a 23 year old man who works in healthcare (thereby needing to be bare below the elbows) I had always assumed quality watches were out of my price range and frankly an indulgence i could ill afford. I had looked at many of my grandfather's watches and been impressed at the craftsmanship and detail, however didn't see a way for me to be involved in the hobby. I strongly feel the points you have made in previous videos regarding traditional brands failing to engage the younger consumer are accurate, and (controversially) think the Seiko 5 Sports models are a noble attempt to engage this otherwise untapped market. Thanks to your channel i am the proud owner of two lovely Casio Edifice watches and have my first automatic, an Orient Mako 2 on the way!

After overhearing this video, Mrs JJ has just informed me that I am banned from eBay. She knows me too well.

eBay - home to the biggest bargains, and the biggest regrets!

Is anyone else concerned that TGV just said that he secretly wants to be Patrick Bateman? Do you even like Huey Lewis and the news?
I'd stick around for your answers but I have to go return some video tapes.

My main concern would be those who swap out movements or other parts undetectable under general inspection, my local authorized Rolex dealer warned me about this many years ago...but great video as always TGV. Bravo!

This is just my single Rolex in my collection (black dial just not tapestry) left to me after my dad passed so I'll never sell it. Now a days it is not as flashy as it used to be in the 80's, easier to wear every day, it introduced me to smaller sizes, has so much class, dare I say it? Pure Class!

I wish it was 2001 as well. I’d stock up on GMTs and Subs and then back to the future

I won’t ever use eBay again.

I used to buy and sell on eBay until I was scammed as a seller. Buyer claimed it wasn’t what was described (vintage DJ36) and even after showing all my proof, eBay/PayPal sided with the buyer. When I refunded the money, I didn’t get back my box and papers or my original TT bracelet - was sent a fake bracelet. When I brought it up with eBay, they said they can’t do anything about it. That’s when I started using forums and Reddit, best thing to ever happen. No dumb fees either.

Once more iam holding the comments section hostage. But i have to say (again), everone should be watching this channel. No one else talks like that. They want to seem like they get these watches just because they're so recognizable so companies just magically send watches. LOL. but you keep it real, I do the same thing. Iam addicted to looking at watches on ebay. Thanks again.

Just picked up an older aqua terra with the authentication for just under $3000. Super pumped. Buying on eBay isn't so bad. Selling is a nightmare and I do not recommend. I've had too many idiots buy my watches and I end up paying for their mistakes because they have no clue what they are doing. Example I had one idiot buy a black 1545 maxi dial and after I sent it he asked me if it was blue. Like, no dummy it's clearly listed as black and squale doesn't make the maxi in blue. Had to wait 2 weeks to get it back so I could re list it. Facebook is even worse though. If people disagree with your asking price, they post the most rude comments bashing your sale.

Authenticity Guaranteed is amazing. A must! A no brained. I’m sold 100%. Wish this was available in EU.
