Consider your outfit. The expertly-tailored pants, the fitted button-up with sleeves rolled to the elbow. Those casual leather boots that go with nearly every conceivable outfit you can fashion from the pieces hanging in your wardrobe. Now consider the anchor to each of these combinations, the one item you possess that, more than any other, can bring an outfit full circle and make you the complete. It’s time you realised the power of a wristwatch. And there’s no better teacher than passthewatch.com

It doesn’t matter if it’s leather or silver; solar, quartz, or mechanical; round face or rectangular, Pass The Watch has the perfect horological complement to your outfit. Don’t let the term “Luxury Watch” throw you – while there are a number of pieces at lofty prices, plenty of their timepieces are accessible to the everyday buyer. Seiko watches in particular strike an ideal balance between extravagance and affordability, almost epitomized by the Seiko SNDD23 Barcelona. The Japanese watch corporation pioneered the quartz watch - and at one point - all stages of watch production was handled in-house. For over 100 years, the Seiko watch brand has been one of the major leaders in the watch market, and their influence has been felt in popular culture as far as the James Bond films whilst also carrying the prestige of being an official Olympic Games Timekeeper.

If it is the case that you do prefer a high-end luxury watch, but still want to keep the price relatively low, WatchesAndWatches.com has an extensive collection of certified used and pre-owned Rolex watches with unbeatable prices. All of the pre-owned Rolex timepieces at this retailer undergo a detailed inspection, service and polish, ensuring each watch is truly in like-new condition when it goes onto the showroom floor. With some of the world's most recognized designs, Rolex watches carry a level of luxury and style which very few other timepieces, let alone products, achieve. In addition, given the demand of Rolex watches along with their impeccable craftsmanship, a used one is in fact one of the safest investments available. Once, if ever, you’re ready to give up your used Rolex Daytona or Submariner, there will definitely be a buyer ready.

Now, if you’d rather sell a luxury timepiece instead of buying them, sellmewatch.com is the best place to sell your Rolex. No matter the watch – Cartier, Omega, Bulova – if you’ve got it, they’ll take it. Why leave beautiful watches around to collect dust when you can trade it in for cold hard cash. It should be noted, however, that Rolex watches tend to bag sellers the best bang for their buck. So if you’ve inexplicably gotten tired of your stunning Rolex watch, go grab an estimate from Sell Me Watch, and see what your hand-me-down might net you – after all, they pay more for Rolexes than any other watch buyer on the market.

Whether you’re sporting the perfect wristwatch on a night on the town, or rolling in the money you made after selling one, consider the power of a watch and what it can do for you.
