Vintage Watches Sale
1.Heuer Skipper
While some may argue that there is nothing like the thrill of purchasing a brand new Rolex or Patek Philippe watch at one of their luxurious boutiques, watch aficionados will also know there is an lot to be said for the history and charm of fine vintage watches. From rare auction lots to classic pieces with historic appeal, here’s our pick of the Best Vintage Sailing Watches to buy now.
I?f you’re into regattas and racing, then Heuer’s classic 1970s chronograph will be right up your street. Purpose built to be used at high speed on the sea, the blue and orange colour combination provides sharp visibility at a glance while the colour-coded sub dial counts down the 15 minutes until the start of a race, allowing the skipper to carefully plan the boat’s movements to gain every advantage. Available from analog/shift, this particular example is in surprisingly good condition bearing in mind the tough environment these Vintage Watches Collection were built for.
2. Rolex Submariner
The Rolex Submariner is one of the most famous nautical watches around. You could, of course, buy a brand new one, but we think this stunning blue and gold 1991 version from The Watch Gallery has a certain charm and style that's hard not to love. I?n pretty much perfect condition, it has a 40mm stainless steel case, mineral glass face and is water resistant up to 300 metres.
3. Rolex Submariner 5513
The Rolex Submariner 5513 is considered the epitome of classic dive watches, and although it is widely available it is nevertheless one of the top choices for Vintage Watches Collectors. The line’s production began in 1962, but this particular model was released in 1984 and it is today regarded a transitional piece. The Rolex Submariner 5513 opted to go with the original acrylic dome crystal that was used on its earlier predecessors instead of the sapphire crystal glass.
4. Rolex GMT Master 1675
The Rolex GMT is one of the most Popular Rolex Watches, and, expectedly, it enjoyed one of the longest production runs in the company’s history. Consequently, there are many variations of the GMT, but its most popular version is the GMT Master 1675, in particular, the one with the red-and-blue bezel. However, other features also count for collectors, and it is these small features that determine how much you will part with. For instance, the earlier models featured a extra hour hand with a large triangle at the front.
5. Rolex Daytona
Rolex has always excelled in making chronograph watches, but it was not until 1963 that it named its first official line of chronograph watches under the brand Rolex Daytona. To this end, the Rolex Daytona boasts of being one of the best Rolex Watches Collection of all time, and it still inspires some of the company’s modern creations.
