HODINKEE Pre-Owned ain't going anywhere. Two days after our big launch, we're back with a new format for our "Pre-Owned Picks" series. We're changing things up a bit here - rather than have a group of our team members each select a single favorite watch from the selection, we're going to become more flexible and change this series as it goes on. Expect to see special guests, different approaches, and more, every Thursday. In the meantime, our man Logan has picked seven of his favorite replica watches that you may have missed this week.
What do you want to see from HODINKEE Pre-Owned content? Let us know in the comments below and we'll try to make it happen!
The Daily Driver Omega Seamaster Railmaster 150M Co-Axial Chronometer 2503.52.00I adore the current-gen Aqua Terra from Omega, part of what I'd consider the third evolution of the line since its early-2000s debut. For a solid everyday wearer that toes the line between casual and dressy, it's hard to beat. But if you're hunting for a deal on one from Omega's back catalog, I'd skip the first and second generation and instead opt for this underrated Railmaster. Released in 2003, it combines a no-date dial, great sizing (39mm × 11mm), and a co-axial movement inside best replica rolex watches. What's not to like?
The Dress Watch Patek Philippe Calatrava 5107GIf I was to buy a dress watch and my budget allowed, I'd have a hard time going anywhere besides the original Patek Philippe Calatrava. There's just something about the line that seems so "grown-up" to me. Would I start investing in mutual funds if I were to don this 5107G for any length of time? Fat chance. But maybe - just maybe - I'd convince my parents I had my life figured out.
The Steel Sport Watch Vacheron Constantin Overseas 4500V/110A-B128Yeah, yeah, the Royal Oak and the Nautilus get all the hype. But what about the Overseas? Vacheron Constantin's contemporary steel sport watch is far from forgotten. Since the debut of its current generation in 2016, we've seen collectors of all types gradually warm up to the watch. And in the past two years especially, as steel sport watch mania in general has achieved a fever pitch, the interest in the line has reached its highest point. And while I do love the Overseas Dual Time, if I'm going in for a steel sport watch, I'm sticking with the tried-and-true territory of a three-hander with blue dial.
The Rolex Rolex Oyster Perpetual 39 114300 White DialOne of the more interesting stories to emerge from the House of Rolex in recent years is the curious case of the Rolex Oyster Perpetual 39 with a white dial. Produced for a short two years, this mid-size daily-wear option quickly captivated the watch cognoscenti for its excellent proportions, classical good looks, and unexpected Rolex charm. Since it was discontinued at the end of 2021, interest in the watch and its value has shot up. And why not? Rolex doesn't produce many replica watches with white dials. And for just two short years, it made one of the best ones available. I think this one's going to be in demand for a long time in the future.
The Chronograph IWC Schaffhausen GST Chronograph Split Second IW3715-23Let's get funky with it! I think the GST collection, an oddball collection of tool replica watches from IWC from the early and mid-2000s, is full of hidden gems like this white-dial rattrapante chronograph. For $5,000 and change, you can split seconds with the best of 'em - and do it in an interesting all-steel sport watch with an integrated bracelet that I can only describe as "Ingenieur Adjacent."
The Tool Watch Ulysse Nardin Diver Le Locle 3203-950Full disclosure - I've had a bit of a crush on this watch since it was first released in 2017. Ulysse Nardin doesn't make many vintage-inspired dive watches, so the Le Locle Diver definitely grabbed my attention. With its simple, easy-on-the-eyes good looks and in-house movement, I think it would be fair to consider this a higher-end alternative to the endless charm of the Oris Divers Sixty-Five collection.
The GMT Blancpain Fifty Fathoms GMTPeople forget about the earliest versions of the contemporary Fifty Fathoms line. It wasn't all ceramic cases and high-beat chronographs. Dating back to the late 1990s, the Fifty Fathoms Trilogy - consisting of a three-hander, a GMT, and a chronograph - was released under Jean Claude Biver's management and represented the very first modern Fifty Fathoms watches. When Blancpain was initially revived in the 1980s, the company focused on and prioritized complicated dress watches. So without the success of the original Trilogy line, there's a very good chance that the current lineup of Fifty Fathoms models wouldn't exist today.
