If you google jomashop reviews, many people complained of receiving the watch they ordered in less than perfect condition if not outright broken. |

I've bought several from them, will never buy from them again.
You will NOT get a official warranty card or all of the original paperwork from the original manufacturer. They only supply their own company warranty. And, if there is an issue and you want to return it, even if it is their fault, you will have to pay for return shipping and insurance. |

I've bought from them before and would again. I also had them not reply to an email once, so I purchased elsewhere.
It's just a matter of weighing the discount vs potential problems. The worst case scenario is you need to service the watch, so for higher priced watches I want them to be the cost of a service cheaper than anywhere else to make it worth the risk. |

Not worth buying a watch if it will still fall under the manufacturer's warranty as they don't provide it, just their own.

I've bought an Omega from them, great shipping (fast and well packed) and the product is as described, minus manufacturer warranty. Highly recommend, their Rolex prices aren't as good as other brands ie Omega

They have a very good operation and a very nice looking site but truth is that they are still not AD to any of the brands they carry. I'm not very sure but I doubt that they will service your watch after the sale they probably will give you the: "contact ......" line. (I could be wrong) |

I've bought three $4000 range watches from Jomashop and all arrived new as described. One had a damaged dial and the exchange process went smooth.
However, for certain brands, if you call around some ADs can beat Joma's price. Tudor and certain Omega comes to mind. Buying Omega from Joma is actually preferable, since they only keep the warranty card but will still send you the pictogram card, so you're covered for provenance sake. |

Bought few watches from jomashop, gemnation, and watchmaxx. No problems.
Edit: also authenticwatches. However, look at the trusted sellers here first for BNIB. |

I have purchased a few watches from them over the years, most expensive being an Omega Seamaster. Watch was new and at a very competitive price. Not sure I would buy Rolex from them, as their prices really aren't that great on them.
