Welcome. Go to one of the local AD's and try on everything that interests you. Decide which one you like. Ask for the best price and see what they say. Leave, return to the TRF and do your research on the model and compare prices from the AD to our Trusted Sellers. Make a decision and get your watch.

Try Howard Frum Jewelers or Legend of Time. Both have amazing customer service and are very knowledgable about the products that they carry.
