Been checking out watches at this web site. Prices are not bad. Have any of you purchased from these guys? Is there anyone better? Just trying to get the best deal I can, Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Welcome to the forums Watch Fan! Glad to have you aboard.

IMHO, Swissluxury is definitely a great dealer to make a purchase from if you do not want to purchase straight from an AD. Swissluxury has an amazing selection, their prices are very good like you said, and they have excellent customer service and testimonials. You can even make a bank wire payment if you wish to save a little more. They also have fast shipping. I have never dealt with Swissluxury personally before but have been following and observing them for a long time. All the customer reviews were great!

Another excellent site besides Swissluxury is Alan Furman. Also, Bernardwatch is another good one.

They're gray market, not an authorized dealer, i.e. no Rolex warranty.

They do however provide their own three year warranty, full coverage mind you, to every watch they sell.

Welcome to TRF!

I believe Paul "Welshwatchman" mentioning yesterday that a member had some issues with a Daytona bought from Swissluxury?

Robb · 30 April 2008, 06:10 AM

I have sold them a couple of watches and everything went great!!

stnmikita · 30 April 2008, 06:39 AM

The selling of Rolex boxes for $125 - $250 seems a bit shady to me.

cmr · 30 April 2008, 07:13 AM

bought my wife's new platty from them and it was nib with all the correct books, papers, boxes and plastic protective stickers still in place. i will buy my next rolex from them with a wire transfer to save the extra money. i saved a ton of money buying from them and they overnighted the watch fed ex.

Thanks for the input. Sounds like they are ok.

when i received it i did pull the bracelet at the 6 o'clock marker and the serial numbers are intact and match the paperwork.

I bought a 16628 MOPD for more than $22k based largely upon reports here. Watch arrived within 2 days of me wiring the money. It was and is perfect in all regards and was covered in all those little plastic stickers, had all documents, etc. I had an excellent experience with Swissluxury.

Not sure I agree with Swiss Luxury watches be authentic. Sounds like a scam. Placed an order and got confirmations out our Hong Kong. Be careful!!!!

Do you realize that this thread is from 2008?

Grey dealer selling new watches without warranty and a significant markup. Not suspicious to me, but also nothing new, and not for me.

I would rather honestly buy a lightly used watch with AD warranty from another source and save the cash.

Swiss luxury Batgirl $18.4k - https://www.swissluxury.com/rolex/126710blnr%20j.htm

Mint condition Batgirl with 2023 AD warranty $17k - https://www.collectors1946.com/colle...26710-blnr-b-p

Save $1.4k, get a basically new watch, and have a real AD warranty rather than a third party 3-year warranty.

(not trying to advertise any particular site, not affiliated with them at all though I do believe they have a good reputation, just what I came up with after a short search).

Quite expensive, at AD in Prague you can have a brand new a Batgirl for +- 12 145 dollars.

2 to 3 months from ordering.

Well, yes. At an AD in the US you pay about $11k + tax, but then you gotta wait lol. That's why there's markup everywhere else.
