Our take on the Raymond Weil Freelancer 2731-SP5-20001 Black Automatic Men's Watch

The Raymond Weil Freelancer 2731-SP5-20001 is a 42mm round men's automatic watch with a black dial, a mechanical self-winding movement and a scratch-resistant crystal. It sits in the mid-luxury Swiss segment, where Raymond Weil competes on finishing and design rather than on in-house movements. The best new price is $2,295 at STORE 5a as of November 5, 2026, and only one store lists it new, so there is no meaningful price spread to shop across.

Questions and answers

Is the Raymond Weil Freelancer 2731-SP5-20001 worth $2,295?
It is a fair price for a Swiss automatic with a 42mm steel case and sapphire-style scratch resistance. You are paying for design and finishing, not for investment value. Buy it because you like how it wears.
How does it compare with a Tudor or Longines at the same price?
Tudor and Longines generally hold resale better and have wider service networks. The Freelancer counters with a dressier look and less common branding on the wrist. Try both on before deciding.
Does it need winding if I don't wear it daily?
It is an automatic, so it winds from wrist movement. If you leave it off for a couple of days it will stop, and you will need to wind and reset it. A watch winder helps if you rotate watches.
Is 42mm too big?
42mm wears well on wrists roughly 6.75 inches and up. On smaller wrists it will look sporty rather than dressy. Check the lug-to-lug measurement before buying online.
Can I swim with it?
It is water resistant, which covers handwashing, rain and splashes. Do not dive or swim laps with it unless the rated depth is stated clearly. Have the seals checked at each service.
When is it cheapest?
With one new listing at $2,295 as of November 5, 2026, there is no competing store to undercut it. Watch for holiday and end-of-season sales at authorized dealers, and check grey-market sellers carefully for warranty coverage.
Where is the Raymond Weil Freelancer 2731-SP5-20001 Black Automatic Men's Watch cheapest?
At STORE 5a, for $2,295.00, as of our latest check.
Where can I buy the Raymond Weil Freelancer 2731-SP5-20001 Black Automatic Men's Watch?
3 stores we checked sell it, including STORE 5a, AuthenticDeals.com, Chrono24.com.
