    Default Sold my GMT II, how about a Graham?

    Thank you to everyone who gave me advice on selling my GMT II. I just sold it and got $5,700. Not bad for a 5 year old watch that I bought new for $5,200. I'm looking to pick up a Graham watch. I don't know a thing about Graham watches but they are amazing looking watches. Does anyone have one or know anything about them?

    never had one, not supposed to be that good. Buy preowned if you want to resell in the future

    Doesn't really look good imo...it'd be a step down from the GMT2

    Step down? The OP never indicated he wanted a better watch than the GMTII, sure the resale kinda sucks but if you don't plan on flipping it later that is a null issue. Going from the GMTII to the Graham the size difference is intense. I wear my watches on the left arm so that monstrosity of a crown would destroy my wrist. I'm not very familiar with Grahams but I know they have their own in house movements, not sure if this watch makes use of that but I love in-house movements.

    The crown sits on the left side of the case, lying flush on the wrist/forearm. They are rather comfortable actually. You can get them with deep discounts new. Or as suggested, used is good also.

    That was the one thing I loved about my Sub, I sold it for more than I paid. Never has that ever happened with a watch!

    I would get a used one, they drop 50% used. It's a very different from a Rolex, but I have to many Rolex sport watches. Thanks for the input everyone.

    ^^^ Good call. Definitely get second hand to take advantage of their horrible resale value. I love the designs from Graham, specially their Chronofighter line. I wish I had one in my collection.
