Bob's Watches and WatchCSA-Much More Than Just a Preowned Rolex

What is a Certified Preowned Watch?

As you search for your first, or next, Rolex, you will see the term 'certified preowned' used a lot. However, not all these endorsements are created equal. In most cases, the certifications are being issued by the seller themselves. Before any watch can legally be described as Certified Preowned, it must go through a full appraisal by either the original manufacturer OR a third party specialist and be given documentation that attests to the quality and authenticity of the specific watch.

Buy with confidence. Get the best and most secure pre-owned watch buying experience with Bob's Watches.

How Does it Work?

It's simple. You have the option to click on the 'WatchCSA' button at checkout on our online store. We then send the model to WatchCSA's state-of-the-art facility on your behalf, where it undergoes a rigorous inspection of every component inside and out, checking for both condition and authenticity. What's more, every watch has its serial number checked against the counterfeit and stolen watch database, guaranteeing the integrity of each timepiece. Only those watches which pass these exacting tests are given our Certified Authentic Report.

Our Certified Pre-Owned watches allow you to buy a Rolex with complete confidence, since the specific watch - and the seller from which you are buying it, have both been verified by an entirely independent, third-party entity.

As a buyer, it is important for you to be able to know - beyond a doubt - that the watch you are about to purchase meets the remarkably high standards for which Rolex is known. When we offer "certified pre-owned" watches, an unbiased and fully-independent entity is performing the evaluation, so you are not just taking our word that the watch you are buying is 100% authentic, the world's leading authority on watch certification is also standing behind your purchase.
