Which one I'd pick
New vs pre-owned: Jomashop wants $10,250 new (list $10,500). Chrono24 asks centred near $7,250, so pre-owned with box and papers saves far more.
What to check before you buy
- Warranty: grey-market new watches usually carry the dealer's warranty, not the brand's. Ask which one you get and whether the brand's warranty card is included.
- Exact reference: dial colour, size and strap change the price. Match the full ref (Q9008180) before comparing deals.
- Fakes and red flags: be wary of prices far below the ranges above, stock photos only, or sellers who won't show the caseback, serial and papers.
