jiainsmith Posted March 4, 2008 Report Share Posted March 4, 2008 I am still very new to this forum and tryiong to learn as much as possible. Is there any difference between the most respected dealers out there that are written about in these forums in terms of quality of product sold. Specifically are any of them particulalrly strong on certain brands. I am looking at Omega, Rolex, Breitling, and Panerai. Please PM me if you don't want to express views in the forum. Thanks to you all. This forum is a great help to uninformed newbies like myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corgi Posted March 4, 2008 Report Share Posted March 4, 2008 I remember when I wrote the exact same post as you about a year and a half ago. What a noob I was back then huh! The best advice I can give you is to get yourself a membership on this forum, research the VIP areas, learn about the dealers, their products, and choose a timepiece that suits your needs based upon what you've gathered from your investigation. Good luck, my friend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victoria Posted March 4, 2008 Report Share Posted March 4, 2008 I am still very new to this forum and tryiong to learn as much as possible.

Specifically are any of them particulalrly strong on certain brands. I am looking at Omega, Rolex, Breitling, and Panerai. It's not because we don't want to give out the info, but because it's genuinely hard to say -- a matter of personal opinion which could well be very wrong. The only thing I can tell you is that I go to Jay/Silix for my cheap Rolexes. I go to Andrew/Trustytime for my ladies watches. And I've heard that Angus/Puretime has great Panerais. And of course, Davidsen is a Panerai-only specialist. Their forums and information are available only to supporters, but doing some research may yield tidbits here and there.

hiker01 Posted March 4, 2008 Report Share Posted March 4, 2008 Add this to your list: hxxp://www.pc-80108.com/ That's Joshua's site......Of all the dealers I've dealt with, he's the best......just my personal opinion, after 24 purchases!

Toadtorrent Posted March 4, 2008 Report Share Posted March 4, 2008 Thanks guys and gals. I'll take your advice and upgrade to a paid subscription. Lots to learn. Like Lady V said...there's a lot to consider. With research, you will learn about questions like: - What is the most accurate "x" out of the box? - What COULD be the most accurate "x" with thousands spent on mods? - What is the best I can SAFELY order in Europe given customs problems? - What is the best I can get if I'm really impatient and want quick communication and fast service but can pay a bit more? - What's the best I can get for the least amount of money? - Why RWG Supporter/VIP memberships provide such good value to people interested in reps... etc, etc, etc...and that's why it's not simple to answer some "general" questions. Stick around...research...and have fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onzenuub Posted March 4, 2008 Report Share Posted March 4, 2008 It also depends of where you live. Joshua is a good dealer, if you live in EU you can order from Precious Time or Narikaa, they are UK based so no troubles with customs and a very fast delivery.

I am in the US, so who would be best given that. Also are there any customs issues I need to be aware of?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onzenuub Posted March 4, 2008 Report Share Posted March 4, 2008 It will be Joshua, one of the best after sales service he has. From what I can find out on this and other boards is that there are only few problems with customs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
