I need help. I just started looking for watches specifically for a Rolex Submariner. I'm fairly new to the watch community and I have a budget with about 6k. If anyone can help me is there any way anyone can help direct me or give me information on a place to look for a Submariner for sale under $6,000.

What you're looking for is called a Tudor Black Bay 58 ๐Ÿ˜‚

Considering the submariner sells for $9100 and go well above that on the second hand market, it's not happening for 6k, not even vintage ones. Not to mention it's almost impossible to get one from an AD unless you have a spend record or wait possibly years for it

The closest thing you can find to a sub within your budget would be a vintage Tudor Submariner like THIS ONE for $5k, But be careful buying vintage. Parts could be swapped out / not original / broken / damaged, etc. Going vintage is not a good idea if you don't have extensive knowledge on what you're buying
