At BQ Watches, we classify vintage watches as timepieces that are 30+ years old - each with character and history. Explore our curated selection of luxury vintage watches, including rare used vintage watches and select antique watches, with new arrivals added regularly.
Marking a birthday, anniversary or milestone? We would love to help you find the right piece. If you can’t see the second-hand luxury vintage watch you want, tell us the brand, model or era and our specialists will source it for you.
Note: Antique watches are typically regarded as 100+ years old. If you’re seeking a specific antique watch, our team can advise on suitability, condition and sourcing.
Use the filters to refine by brand, era, case size, dial colour and budget to find your ideal vintage piece. Every listing is a unique one-off; if an item has sold, contact us and we’ll aim to source a similar watch for you.
There’s something special about a vintage timepiece - its design reflects the era it was made in, and its story lives on the wrist. Luxury vintage watches from long-established maisons have been crafted for decades, sometimes more than a century, and the fact that many still keep excellent time speaks to enduring quality.
Buying considerations and value factors:
• Condition and originality (dial, hands, bezel, bracelet)
• Provenance and service history
• Rarity, reference and production era
• Presence of box and papers
• Case material, size and wearability
These elements influence pricing for used vintage watches and antique watches alike. Our team can explain each factor and help you choose the right piece with confidence.
