Welcome to TRF Frank cannot help you regarding the AD,but have only heard good thing about Alan Furman.Some members have bought and been highly satisfied, and another plus they have a bricks and motor store.

Hi Blufin, I used to hang out in Irvine all the time! There are a few AD's out there but I do not have their information here, sorry. Nice to see someone from my old neck of the woods! Welcome!

Hello, Frank, and welcome to TRF. Glad you found our merry madhouse and were able to extract some good information from among the nonsense we often post.

Stick around and join the fun.


AF has a good rep as a grey market dealer. Not the lowest prices around, but a good selection and they usually do beat AD prices.

Can't help you on a local O.C. AD. Haven't been to that neck of the woods in nearly 30 years.

Welcome.

I'm just an hour or so North of the Orange Curtain.

For what it's worth, the three non-authorized on line dealers I was recommended by folks I trust were:

Alan Furman
TarryTown Jewelers
Paul Duggan Fine Watches

All three are also brick and mortar locations which, to me, is a good thing.

There were some others in the UK, but many won't sell to the states due to customs issues.

A couple of good on line sales forums too if you're willing to dig around. I like Time Zone.
