15 Nov How to Sell an Omega Watch in San Diego, CA
If you would like to sell an Omega watch, the first step is figuring out how much your timepiece is worth. C. Blackburn Jewelers in La Jolla can help. We are not only where to sell an Omega watch for a great price. We are one of the best places in San Diego to get a free market appraisal of your used Omega timepiece.
Unlike a written appraisal that evaluates the retail replacement value of your Omega watch, our verbal appraisals help you evaluate the worth of your pre-owned timepiece on the resale market.
Resale watch appraisals are both an art and science, with a certain amount of subjectivity involved. That is why you want to get an appraisal from an experienced Omega watch buyer like C. Blackburn Jewelers. We regularly deal in the most expensive pre-owned Omega timepieces. Thus we can offer you an accurate appraisal based on our deep knowledge of the market.
Our San Diego watch buyers are led by owner Carl Blackburn, who buys vintage Omega timepieces that in the past were almost exclusively sold at auction. Models that we buy include the De Ville Tourbillon, Speedmaster Moonwatch (Apollo 11 40th Anniversary), Ladies Constellation Luxury Edition, Omega Specialty, and Ladies Seamaster (18k gold).
Call Carl directly at 858-251-3006 or send him a text message at 619-723-8589. Share a few details about the second-hand Omega watch you would like to sell. He’ll respond shortly with a preliminary appraisal or ask for additional details about your pre-owned Omega timepiece.
You can also contact us to sell a Rolex watch, sell a Vacheron Constanin timepiece or sell other prestige vintage watches. We also buy luxury timepieces set with diamonds or precious colored gemstones.
Above and Beyond
I couldn’t be happier with my experience at C. Blackburn Jewelers when I recently traded my late dad’s Rolex for a gold Lady-Datejust. Carl Blackburn and Rolex specialist, Ron, assisted me throughout the process. They offered me a fair trade value for my dad’s watch, which meant a lot to me. Carl and Ron went above and beyond to find a watch that matched the specifications of my dream watch perfectly. I am thrilled with my new watch and grateful for the outstanding service I received. I’ll be back!
The Right Watch Buyer
Working with Carl Blackburn was one of the most simple and straight-forward transactions I’ve experienced. He quickly responded to my voicemail, and immediately I felt confident that I was working with the right watch buyer to sell my used Rolex watch.
Top Notch
Working with Carl was an uncomplicated and straightforward experience, one of the best transactions I’ve had. I left a voicemail, and he promptly responded with a text and call, where he clearly explained the process. I felt confident that I had found the right buyer to sell my Rolex. After I sent clear pictures of the timepiece, Carl followed up with a phone call and quoted me a very competitive price. We agreed to the deal, and he covered the cost of insuring and shipping the timepiece via FedEx. After he confirmed receipt and assessed the timepiece, he wired the funds directly to my bank account. I highly recommend working with Carl. He runs a top-notch business and is a man of his word.
Generous & Reliable
I wanted to sell my Rolex watch and researched various options online. I sent out several inquiries for quotes on different websites, including local ones and some that required me to send the watch. Carl replied to my request for a quote within a day, providing guidance on how to take the necessary pictures for an accurate assessment. After receiving the pictures and other details, Carl made a fair and generous offer (higher than those from local vendors). As a first-time watch seller with limited experience, I highly recommend working with Carl and considering his offer before doing business with others. His offer was the highest, and other vendors I spoke with confirmed they couldn’t match it. If you are satisfied with his offer, you can trust that it’s a safe and reliable option. I strongly recommend this business.
Learn About Omega
Omega is a popular Swiss luxury watch maker famous for its highly accurate watches and its relation to sports timing and popular culture. Based in Bienne, Switzerland, and now a part of the Swatch group, Omega continues to produce highly refined watches, from the classically elegant De Ville models to the iconic Speedmaster sports watch.
The original Omega watches were manufactured by La Generale Watch Co., and they proved so successful that the Omega brand was spun off as its own company in 1903 — thanks in part to the introduction of interchangeable parts in the manufacture.
The technical production capacity allowed Omega to lead the industry in many sectors of watchmaking, including military and sports watches. Multiple wins at observatory trials confirmed the accuracy of Omega timepieces, and in 1932 Omega was named the sole timekeeper for the Olympic games, a privilege they have been awarded a record 21 times.
Omega’s association with sports includes not just the Olympics, but also the PGA of America. The firm has provided support to Emirates Team New Zealand in the America’s Cup yacht races. Famous wearers of Omega watches include everyone from Mao Zedong and John F. Kennedy to Reinhold Messner, Michael Phelps, and every James Bond since 1995.
Perhaps no Omega watch association captured the public’s imagination like that of the Speedmaster with the Apollo space program. After winning a competition with Bouleva, Omega provided the Speedmaster Professional Chronograph to both Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong on Apollo 11. Aldrin’s watch was actually worn on the lunar surface, becoming the first watch to be worn on the moon.
