Hi

I'm located in Canada so buying a piece from a US trusted seller is expensive for me (fx plus import duties etc). I would like to buy from a Canadian trusted seller. Can you please recommend some names and contact information?

Thank you

Try canwatcho.com

I’ve sold a few there and there are a few members here who belong but are based in Canada

Why don't you purchase in the states and drive back. Watches are much cheaper down there.

I'm open to that too. I'll have to see the price difference first...

I am sure you could ship to someone local (Seattle area) and pick it up from there.

I doubt you’ll save any money with Canadian “trusted sellers”. They understand the exchange and apply their prices accordingly. I suppose it depends on what you’re after.

The biggest Canadian grey market dealer in Canada is Buying Time and he has IG where you can see all his latest. I have purchased and sold numerous watches as well as many of my friends and colleagues. He is legit and a great guy. His name is Mike.

Check out Instagram of BuyingTime...he is also the largest vendor on the Canandian Watch Company website that Brian provided you...he is name on there is MyLeftWrist.

Exactly, there are a lot of really helpful members here

Canwatchco is the place to be as many others have suggested. Sometimes the deals there are much better than US trusted sellers. I find US trusted sellers to be gouging most of the time.

Also, driving down there to pickup a watch and not paying taxes is evasion.

No JAPenny lives down east I believe.

Joe (Jeff) lives in a town very close to me here in Southern Ontario starting with an E ... I

I met him at my bank and sold him my 2016 BLNR and he showed me a few of his vintage pieces. Super nice guy. I

I guess I just have his name noted incorrectly in my contacts. I have his user name here as well as his contact info. I'll change it to Joe now

Using the US pricing (net of exchange) is a good benchmark.

Watchrecon for researching prices is a good place to track.

There are also Facebook groups, one is called Canada Luxury Watch Group another is Canada Watch Group. I picked up my 116710LN from a user in one of those groups. Had it authenticated prior to paying, very happy with it

All the best
