A fun and interesting relationship with a smart, friendly, and professional SA.

What else could you ask for ?

My experience was excellent at Tourneau Waikki Beach, across the street from Dukes... every model in the displays, your job, get one out of there and on your wrist !

Awesome! I was imagining four calls of “Hi, just calling to see if a sub has come in yet” in a short time

A week or so before I was leaving for vacation, I got the text that it arrived and to phone in payment for collection in person when I got there. It was the highlight of my trip!

Local, personally went into the Store for initial contact, then text and calls, after that to stay current with SA. . . .
