I've been watching and liking your video's. I like your passion for watches, it makes watching, (no pun intended) very enjoyable. On the watches that are over wound, you can release them if you're careful. If you want to know how, (just in case you don't know how, I can explain how to do it. Someone with your expertise please don't be offended if you do know how to do it. Great videos thank you.
@@BackToTheFutura thanks so much. I know how to, but I hardly do. Usually when their overwound there’s another issue at hand. They usually need a full service at that point
After watching some of your videos I looked through my bag of scrap watches that I had previously tried to sell very cheap on Ebay and found a ladies watch with a 9k case.
I'm glad that you showed up in my feed once again good haul you got some nice watches. I hope rude comments to get to you about your haul remember its easier to make 400 bucks off of 40 affordable watches over making 400 bucks off a 10k watch that gave you a headache to sale. Never let rude watch snobs get to you.
@@vintagesterlingfinds yup.sounds about right high end watches are a headache to sale because of how small the margin for profit is on the gray market second hand market is,most high end watches sold in the gray market only make 5 percent 10 percent if you are lucky. Most people lose money selling high end watches that's just the way it is.
@@4evalost948 your right. Now the market is going down. There’s a guy who paid 26,000 for a gmt master 2. In today’s marketplace it’s worth around 21,000
Timex are great and most people just think they are worthless, most of the resellers around me are like that anyways, they are only out there looking for designer brands so it works out well lol.
Nice vintage watches, I usually go buy how smooth it it winds, like most Carevelle made by boll a, Seko are usually smooth winding watches, it that’s what I test first
@@Siouxpreme1979 hahaha you are a big guy. In the 70s Timex made a few mechanical 40mm watches. They look very close to the marlin. I would recommend one of those to you
@@vintagesterlingfinds yeah thanks. I haven't had a nato strap watch yet plan on getting a timex one. But will try for the ae 1000. I don't know if I need a adapter or not
Basically every seller that has a crap load of low end watches knows about this guy now. An hurrys to throw their worthless watches in a box an gets the listing on ebay for this guy to take the bait an make a quick easy sale to get rid of their 50 cent watches for a low fortune. Your videos are entertaining, its just you can do better. This watch lots are no good.
I have a question. I have a sterling silver ring. It weighs 60 grams. Excellent condition. But used. What would you price it at?. To sell online. I see all these other silver rings being sold at crazy prices, but they weigh nothing close to what my ring weighs. I was thinking 350 or 300 dollars.
16:10 that timex auto worth anywhere from $125 to $200. I have the exact same one
@@sheriwalker-to1ws oh thanks so much for letting me know

I was looking at one of those swatch touch watches on ebay the other day, it was the first one I had seen.
@@philtowle4683 yes I have seen a few of them. I am not a huge fan. The touch screen Is hard to operate
Timex are great and most people just think they are worthless, most of the resellers around me are like that anyways, they are only out there looking for designer brands so it works out well lol.
@@AlexButler-ry3hj thanks I agree. I do pretty well with Timex. The quality is fair and they sell pretty fast

@@johnprince5000 right it’s good to always test
great vid as usual mate, keep up the good work
@@markwilson8504 thanks so much
The Seth Thomas Ships Wheel clock is a good find.
@@MillwalltheCat thanks I agree. I have never seen one like it
I always wanted a Timex Marlin but I don't like wearing anything under 40mm. I'm 6'8" 270 so it's awkward being so big and having a small watch.
@@Siouxpreme1979 hahaha you are a big guy. In the 70s Timex made a few mechanical 40mm watches. They look very close to the marlin. I would recommend one of those to you
What numbers do you consider 'acceptable' for sale on the timegrapher?
@@WatchWithMike depends on the watch. For used usually 30 seconds I call acceptable
I have a casio world time (ae-1000w) and I love it except for the strap it digs into my skin. Good lot though
@@tysondaprato2010 thanks so much. Try changing to a nato strap. I find them more comfortable
@@vintagesterlingfinds yeah thanks. I haven't had a nato strap watch yet plan on getting a timex one. But will try for the ae 1000. I don't know if I need a adapter or not
@@tysondaprato2010 look on google. I don’t think you will need an adapter
@@vintagesterlingfinds your right I doesn't need one. I just need to figure out the right size for it. Thanks
@@tysondaprato2010 use a calliper. It’s probably a 18mm or 20mm
got a large lot of stares repair and good watches
@@andrewyurchesyn2518 thanks so much
What do you do with all your watches that are fully wound? Fix or lot them together for others to fix?
@@StraightEdgeHipster I generally sell them in lots of 10 or 20
So do you have a personal watch you wear everyday?.
@@Crownof12stars yes my main watch is a 1983 Rolex oyster perpetual
@@vintagesterlingfinds Very nice. You deserve a nice watch that like. Keep up the good work.
@@Crownof12stars thanks so much
Hello my friend, I am one of your followers. I am from the Middle East. Can you give me the name of a site to buy a box for hours?
@@myheartonyourheart3096 not a problem generally eBay. But in your area there may be better options
@@vintagesterlingfinds Thank you for answering the question, but is there a site other than IP to buy wholesale?
@ not that I know of
Did you know solar and Rolex have something in common
@@georgeworthy7970 yes a lot of men’s solar have Rolex movements but rare
Nice lot of watches

@@Crownof12stars silver can be a hard sell. Depends on the maker and stone. I usually sell for 4x scrap so I would go around $240
@@vintagesterlingfinds I was thinking of lowering it. Ok, thank you for imput an advice.

i wish you would end each video with a recap of the best watches. and maybe the value.
Solar watches are actually rolexes man. I'm sure you know this though
@@BrianNovak-gk5rb thanks. Some of the men’s watches are Rolex. It is rare. The Rolex ones have a Rolex crown on the stem and have a Rolex oyster case
Very nice
