Yes, I bought a watch (Omega Seamaster) from them a few years back. They work as you expect, the service is ok and they're sufficiently quick. Not the quickest guys on the planet, but neither slow.

However, remember that you won't get the warranty card and the COSC. If I had known that before I bought the watch, I'd have passed. But, I was young and stupid... (Now I'm old and stupid. :) )

Thanks for the reply. Well I hoped they changed over the years. I wrote them a email and they said that all the papers that you would expect from a AD was included. I just pulled the trigger on my first Ling so i hope my experice with them will be plesant :)

But everything was there, the watch,all papers,serials and the warranty stamped by an AD.

I'm thinking of giving them a go aswell, after having read lots of positive comments about them.

However - I'm wondering if there is any way for an authorized dealer to see that the watch was bought on the grey market and thus refuse to give the watch service?

I assume the watch comes with an AD-stamped warranty card... But still - can the AD track it to the grey dealer?

Might be a weird question, but hey... I'd love an answer :)

Cheers!

If the warranty card is stamped, then the answer is THAT is where you bought it. End of story. :wink:

yup.. I also brought everything to the local AD to have a look at it.. and they said everything was authentic and legit, so no worries there..

When the time comes, i'll probably get my next watch from them aswell..

I feel a huge aversion when it comes to these type of stores. Yeah, it's a generous idea to offer brandwatches to a (usually) lower price than the actual A.D. But buying from internet is nothing compared to a purchase from a retailer.

Maybe its just me, but stores like uret (?) is a big NONO.
