I love watches so when the owner of Q8 Chrono emailed me the link to his site I quickly went to check it out. It’s kinda like Q8car.com except for watches or at least thats the kind of site I hope it turns into. The site lists a lot of new watches and also around 20 used watches (which is my favorite section). There is a pretty decent used watches market in Kuwait but all the stores that sell them are scattered around Kuwait. Having them all online on one site would be pretty practical. The site is still being worked on and the owner still has many things he wants to implement but for now you can check the site by going to Q8chrono.com
I hope the used section gets updated often and there should be a way of contacting the site if I want to sell a watch or maybe an automated form? I also just realized the used watches section is 2 pages long, you need to click on older entries at the bottom to get to the second page. Not very practical, he should ditch wordpress and set up a proper e-commerce site.
Update: Ok found the contact information, it was on the main page but there should be a link to the contact info on every page.

Whatever happened to “West End” watch company?
I love watches too ! Do you know anyone in Kuwait who sells new/unused MTM special ops watch ? I saw a Timex model that looks almost like it and its only around 50KD š
Thanks Mark for the heads up! This kind of feedback is exactly what I was looking for when I emailed you, not to mention the visitors I got from this post. š I will definately consider getting some sort of software to turn Q8Chrono to a proper e-commerce site. For the time being, let’s just call this Q8 Chrono Beta I.
And guys, the prices posted aren’t final yet. I’m still working on that part. Feel free to post any ideas/feedback here or on the site, or to my email.
Thanks Mark again.
watches are way overpriced on that website, now with the euro on the low you can get so much better deals in any market
Hello Mohammed,
Thanks for the feedback. Europe has recently raised the prices 12% on Rolex and you can rarely find discounted Panerais, can you be more specific on which models are “way overpriced”?
Also, please keep in mind that the prices aren’t final. Yet.
Regards,
Q8 Chrono:
I agree the prices are way off the (desired) (or acceptable)
Selection is nice but you need to work out fast on the price part so we can start negotiating or discussing.
I think having brand new watches also spoils the experience.
Interesting site, I hope it turns into something good
Yeah I also find the whole used watches section more interesting than the new watches. Its what I was telling him if I want a new watch I would rather get it from the dealer and enjoy the whole buying an expensive watch from an expensive dealer in an expensive mall experience specially since the prices of the new watches on the website are probably the same or very close to the dealers.
I think so too guys. I will no longer post new watches and will phase them out gradually. I will start deleting them as I post more used watches.
