Not necessary to buy new. There are mint condition preowned ones appearing quite often on watch forums if you feel like saving a few hundred bucks. Good luck.

Re: Tuna &
If it were me, I would get the Spring Drive tuna instead as I wana try a SD watch. But of course, it will be more expensive.

Re: Tuna &
Get a preowned emperor.. Damage will be lower unless it is meant for keeper..
Start slow.. Slowly moving up the level.. so many tunas to play with..

Re: Tuna &
I think can get used emperor tuna for a bit below 3k? 2.5 to 2.8k?
But would rather pay a bit more for the spring drive tuna...

Re: Tuna &
I have seen some tunas on the net going for difference of 100
One has the word marinemaster, and the other without the wordings
One has a luminous mini ring on the outer 12, 6 & 9 indicators hence
my confusion.
Anyone got an explanation on the difference?

Re: Tuna &
Buying new - give you feeling of a virgin watch. More expensive.
Buying used - somehow you think she's been used and been manhandled by another. Save at least a little usually.
Buying the emperor after the quartz, there is a big heft difference. Especially between the 300m and the 1000M. Less so between the 1000m quartz vs auto.
The Emperor is like an all DLC watch but the historical or a 6159 adds that little bit of SS to the watch IMO.
End of the day, if you have a chance to try it first, that's the best. And always buy what you like not what others like or what they say has best resale.
