At present my watch box is full, but I reckon any future purchase will be pre-owned.
The last watch I acquired was a pre-owned item, mainly because the watch in question is no longer made. My experience buying used was a good one and has definitely woken me up to the advantages

i typically only buy used. mainly because i dont keep watches for too long, but also because i hate overpaying for something. this past year ive bought ~10 used and sold ~6 of them.

only time ive gone new is for limited edition or new release models. Like the Baselworld Omega Seamaster Two Tone ill buy new (have it reserved for me when its released in august) and the Tudor GMT ill buy new (on waiting list, will get this fall)
