Do you have a Hublot watch you’re ready to part with? Many owners reach a point where they want to move on, make room for something new, or change styles. Selling your watch is the best way to turn a piece you’re no longer wearing into value you can use right away.
Our team at Precision Watches worked together to create this guide that walks you through the process step by step. We’re here to help you understand what to expect, avoid common mistakes, and feel confident about your decision to sell a Hublot watch.
Why Hublot Watches Stand Out
Hublot is one of the most in-demand Swiss luxury watch manufacturers. We love that the timepieces are bold, modern, and often made with unique materials like ceramic, carbon fiber, sapphire, or titanium.
Because of that, Hublot values don’t always follow the same rules as more traditional brands. Some Hublot models hold value better than others. Limited editions and popular Big Bang references tend to attract more interest. Check out our recent Big Bang Ferrari Las Vegas review. Other pieces may be more niche and appeal to a smaller buyer pool. This doesn’t mean your watch isn’t valuable. It just means pricing and demand can vary more than people expect.
How to Sell a Hublot Watch | 4 Easy Steps
If you are thinking about selling your Hublot, you are in the right place. You can sell your watch at Precision Watches. We guide you through each step so you know exactly what to expect.
Know Which Hublot You Own
Start with the basics. Knowing exactly what you have helps set realistic expectations. If you have the original box, warranty card, or paperwork, keep everything together. These details help confirm authenticity and often make the selling process faster. If you’re unsure about any of this, don’t worry. We can help you identify the watch.
Try to gather:
- The model name
- The reference number
- Approximate year of purchase
- Case material and size
Take an Honest Look at the Condition
You don’t need a perfect watch to sell it. Normal wear is expected. That said, condition still matters. Scratches, chips, cracked crystals, or non-original parts can affect value. Avoid trying to fix or polish the watch yourself. Bring the watch as-is.
Get an Evaluation
We’d love for you to visit our showroom with your Hublot watch. An in-person evaluation will help us confirm authenticity, verify references and materials, assess condition, and review market demand.
Everything happens in front of you. You should feel comfortable asking questions and understanding how the offer is calculated. Take a look at our watch value guide to learn more about how much your piece might be worth.
Review the Offer and Take Your Time
A fair offer should come with a clear explanation. You’re never required to accept it on the spot. Take a moment to think it over. Ask questions. Compare options if needed. If it feels right, you can complete the sale and receive payment.
If you’re eyeing another item, trading your luxury watch can be a smart move because you can apply the value of your Hublot toward your next piece.
Tips | How to Get the Best Price for Your Hublot
If you’re thinking about selling your Hublot, there are a few simple things you can do that really make a difference in the final number.
Take Care of Your Watch
Hublot watches are built to be worn, but they still benefit from basic care. For example, if the case is water-resistant, rinse it with fresh water after swimming and wipe it dry with a soft cloth. A watch that’s clearly been well cared for is usually worth more.
Service When Needed, Not Excessively
Regular servicing helps protect the movement. Only go to authorized service centers and keep any service paperwork. Also, avoid unnecessary polishing. Over-polishing can soften edges and reduce value.
Keep Your Box, Papers, & Extras
If you have the original box, warranty card, manuals, tags, or extra straps, keep them together. Even expired warranty cards still matter. If anything was removed over the years, like extra bracelet links or straps, bring those too.
Avoid Modifications
Aftermarket parts, refinishing, or non-original components can hurt value. In our experience, collectors and buyers prefer watches that are as close to original as possible. If anyone replaced parts during service, it’s helpful to know if they used the original parts.
Don’t Make These Common Mistakes
- Cleaning or polishing the watch yourself
- Shipping a high-value watch to an unknown buyer
- Accepting the first offer without understanding it
- Expecting retail or original purchase price
- Ignoring local selling options

FAQS
Should I service my Hublot before selling it?
Usually no. Only service the watch if it is not functioning properly, and you’ve been advised to do so. Visit our watch repair center if you have any questions.
Is it better to sell or trade a Hublot?
There’s no correct answer! Selling is best if you want cash now. Trading works well if you’re moving into another watch and want to reduce out-of-pocket costs.
Can I sell a limited-edition Hublot?
Absolutely. Limited editions can be very appealing, especially if demand is strong. Bring any documentation that confirms the edition number.
Are scratched Hublot watches hard to sell?
Not necessarily. Light wear is expected. Serious damage may affect value, but most buyers factor normal wear into their offers. Ceramic scratches less than steel, which helps.
Do Hublot watches hold their value?
Some do better than others. Limited editions, popular Big Bang references, and models in ceramic or carbon tend to perform stronger on the resale market. Entry-level models usually sell for less than retail, which is normal for the brand.
