This is my third watch from Bezel, and the whole process has always been very easy. I'm sure I will buy more watches.

This is my third watch from Bezel

The concierge i worked with David was incredible to work with. He was there for all my questions, explained the process as it was going. Found the watch I was looking for and ensured it was sized correctly and shipped for when I was in town. He was all around the definition of customer service.

Great experience! The team communicated with me every step of the way. The watch arrived quickly and in great condition. They shipped it to my preferred location and everything was in order.

Flawless delivery. Item in exact condition as advertised. Guarantee by Bezel reassuring. Can’t wait for the next win.

Flawless

This was my first large purchase for a watch and Carlos was very knowledgeable. He gave me his input on my purchase and advocated for me when the watch wasn’t exactly as described. I would recommend Bezel to anyone. 

First Purchase

Excellent customer service and a quick transaction. Watch exactly as described. Great experience will definitely buy from them again 

Excellent customer service and a quick…

The concierge service was very responsive, highly professional in conduct, and they answered my every question. Navigating the site and app was relatively painless. Also, the purchasing process was quite simple, very straightforward, and the package arrived exactly as I had hoped, and even better (again, the concierge answered all questions regarding delivery, and anything related thereto). Plus, I got a fantastic deal on what I believe to be a future classic (Tudor Ranger 39mm). Cheers! 

The concierge service was very…responsive, courteous, and they answered every question. Very reassuring.

Seamless, quick and an all around excellent purchase experience.  

Seamless

I will only ever buy used and certified watches through the Bezel service. They have a commitment to customer service far above and beyond what most such companies from which I have ever purchased luxury goods, and their service and guarantee of authenticity and tremendous marketplace selection is phenomenal.  I don’t doom scroll on Instagram, I look at Bezel!  Only!!!

The ONLY place but pieces for your collection

Amazing company, amazing people and most amazing watch!!!  Absolutely will use them again.  Thank-you Bezel/ Carlos and team, for everything!  Can’t wait for my next purchase.

Amazing company

I recently bought a very expensive gold Cartier watch from Bezel..one that they no longer carry at Cartier the medium size gold Tank Francaise... this one was new and unused in the box with papers and warranty..I've only bought from Cartier before but buying on Bezel was an excellent experience one that I would recommend to anyone looking for a high end watch from a 3rd party that you can trust and who handles customer service with absolutely perfection.  I must have asked 1000 questions and asked for so much information and they handled each one of those questions like pros and always responded to me immediately.  The process was easy..paid for the watch it was shipped in a day arrived in perfect condition with a warranty which I was able to go online to Cartier and extend the warranty for 8 years.  They even offer a great deal on insurance if  you need to insure it..they make that easy too.  They sized the watch there for me no charge and you do have 24 hours if you do want to return it,  but the watch was perfect as described and Cartier also looked at it and was happy I had found the medium size that they no longer carried.  The watch is beautiful and perfect and when I am ready to buy another high end watch it will be from them because I did find what I needed and a great price and everything checked out perfectly.  The Concierge service is amazing and so helpful and patient and I am absolutely thrilled with the purchase and love the watch..Was nervous but what I wanted was not available because the size had been discontinued just this year and I'm very happy with Bezel.  

Absolutely would buy from again..thrilled with purchase!

Great experience start to finish!

Great communication about the purchase process and what is happening with the watch I bought. Quick and reliable.

Great communication about the purchase…

So simple to use.  Fast shipping and great quality.

So simple to use

Love Bezel. Have purchased many watches and always a great experience.

Love Bezel

The whole experience was excellent to the end. My experience was actually over the course of two watches. The first was won in an auction and sent into bezel for authentication. Although it was a real Rolex, it did not meet their standard for a true “unworn” piece. I opted to cancel the purchase and search for another.  They were very understanding and the refund process was seamless. The second watch I won in another auction was authenticated as described and shipped with no issue. I will be using bezel for future purchases!

Edit:

I attempted to get a 3rd watch which ended up having after market parts. Bezel called and informed me that it failed authentication and takes this very seriously, removing the seller from the platform. 

Wonderful experience start to finish.

Communication was superb.  Authentication process was beyond expectation.  Remediation of issues identified during the process's was above and beyond.

Bezel takes the counterfeit worry aspect out of the process of shopping for a luxury watch. With their extensive listings, their site makes finding the watch of your dreams very simple. Once you make a purchase, they keep you informed throughout the process so you know where your watch is. The only hitch in my first purchase was a less than prompt seller getting the watch shipped to Bezel for evaluation. Other than that, it was a very painless process and I would not hesitate to use Bezel for future purchases.

This was my first purchase with Bezel. They made the process easy, transparent, and very fast from beginning to end. Everything arrived in the condition advertised with all the promised paperwork. Great experience all around!

This was my first purchase with Bezel

it was my first time buying a pre owned luxury watch online, they are responsive usually answer within a day. will communicate if something is not correct with listing and or after authentication.  Also used Wire transfer to save extra CC fees.  definitely recommend this site for pre owned.  after authentication shipping takes 2-3days.

great website to purchase pre owned watches

Smooth and everything was great

I found several watches in the category I was looking for and found the negotiation process easy and efficient! Carlos in customer service was excellent. I intend to buy my next watch through Bezel; and very soon!

Great buying experience!

Great service

Obviously was hesitant buying an expensive watch on line… but took the leap on a Tudor Pelagos FXD. Overall very happy with the process .. the guys at bezel were personable and helped every step of the way.. even when there was hiccup on the sellers part they corrected it . I don’t know 100% that I would use it for all my watch purchases but to save some money on a great watch I’ll always check it out ! There is something nice about getting a watch from an AD… but compared to a non AD Bezel is going to be my go too. Very happy overall. Time frame was quick and the small fees they charge I feel are worth it for the confidence it gives 

Obviously was hesitant buying an…
