Nicest AD I’ve seen...

Not the largest, not the best inventory, and trying to get a picture like this when open basically impossible....but the location....perfetto!

What’s the most impressive AD you’ve seen?

(In Florence on the Ponte Vecchio.)

very cool spot on Ponte Vecchio, not a big store you're right but pretty incredible real estate.

Love that AD and the service there is great too. They took good care of my friend and I when we bought a pair of GMTs and Subs

I’ve been to that one a few times over the years

Cross the bridge and through the square and you’re in Panerai heaven

Only steel they had (or said they had) was a very nice Explorer in the window. Had a lovely all gold Sub too.

Saw this a few feet further down...at the Patek AD though. In the window which was surprising.

That's like hitting jackpot if you got a spare 60K

I bought a sub there 3 years ago. Lovely people. I’ve got a feeling there were 3 generations working in there. They have me a lovely heavy book on the history of the bridge and Rolex.
