The Perks Of Reselling On Second Movement And How To Do It

The unparalleled luxury of a Cartier, the heirloom vibe of a Patek Philippe, or the savoir faire of an Omega are now not restricted to the who’s who of society but are finding meaningful presence on more wrists than one can imagine. The rise of the pre-owned luxury watch market is an incredible tale of the coherent transformation of choices and sensibilities.

While splurging on vintage timepieces is not a new phenomenon, the last decade witnessed an unexpected upsurge of discerning watch enthusiasts who find buying and selling pre-owned watches a sensible investment. In addition, it is quite interesting why people today feel comfortable and ready to part ways with their once-cherished luxury timepieces. The ecosystem created by the pre-owned market has successfully provided contentment to individuals who do not connect with the idea of forever and instead, prefer to explore new and exciting options. Moreover, knowing the timepiece that you have enjoyed and are ready to move on from is now with someone who really wants it brings an irreplaceable feeling of satisfaction and relief. It’s truly a win-win for all.

Second Movement, founded in 2019, is a venture by one of India’s more prominent watch retailers – Ethos Limited.  A leader in the segment, Ethos is now advancing towards being a trailblazer in India’s pre-owned market with Second Movement.

One of the well-organised resale platforms in India, it is all about celebrating watches and the people who love them. We picture watches as pieces of art where design and mechanism come together to create something awe-inspiring. Hence, the last thing we would want is for a timepiece to sit at the back of a closet drawer and never be worn again. Therefore, we invite and encourage patrons to sell such timepieces instead. With the trusted legacy of Ethos Watches and a process that’s easy as a breeze, Second Movement is the ideal place to sell luxury watches. And we are happy to enumerate why reselling with Second Movement is the way to go.

Gain Without Wait

Second Movement is a platform where we want to make selling a watch a memorable experience for you. Therefore, we ensure that the seller’s journey with us is one sans any bumps. The run-of-the-mill process is for a seller to list the watch online and then wait for the payment till that watch gets sold. However, with Second Movement, things move at a fast clip with no listing, no waiting.  Yes, our process is simple. Upon qualifying our inspection and authentication process, we outright buy the watch and pay you forthwith. That means you simply pass us the buck, and we take care of the business while you enjoy the immediate returns.

An Omega For An Omega

Trading, we believe, is one of the strongest catalysts of a circular economy. By trading your used watch for another pre-loved one, you are increasing the life of two beautiful timepieces at once. It is an ideal way out when you are looking to upgrade or refresh your collection. The fun of trading a watch on Second Movement lies in its mammoth collection that includes some of the biggest names in the luxury industry. From Audemars Piguet and Jaeger-LeCoultre to Harry Winston and Bulgari, there’s a watch to complement every taste and choice.
