Thanks for the help,

Well, I traded a TT Yacht Master for a Platty Yacht master that was new in the box. I had to throw in a little extra but it was worth it, very nice people to deal with. I hope I'm correct with names but I talked to Ivan and John. I also work about 25 min from there building, I will go back if I have too.

If you need any more info, let me know.

Mixed experience

I believe they are reputable, but the owner/father has had some health issues which make him of an unpredictable temperament....

It's not his fault, but it did ruin a deal between us. Probably best to not deal with owner, for now. He answers the phone a lot. This is in no way to be unkind, just advice.

I've heard they are good people--but still you should ask very detailed questions if the watch is pre-owned.. Don't take anything for granted. But I'm sure it will turn out fine--they have been in biz a looooooong time.

100%!!

I've traded and purchased outright from Capetown and personally vouch for their product, service, price and attention to every detail.

If calling, ask for Jonathan, he's the owner's son and a great person to deal with. But do yourself a favor and go by their location in Atlanta. It's a treat!

I went ahead and bought....

Hey everyone...

Just wanted to touch base and tellyou that I did buy exactly what I was looking for at exactly the right price. I feel that I got a OK deal, not a great deal, but not a bad one either.

If you call them, ask for Jon or Joshua. The owner Carl is a work of art, but deal with the other guys if you don't want crossed wires about what you want.

Very fair, Very prompt. I would buy from them again.

Thanks,

AB

I bought a TT Datejust with oyster bracelet, black baton dial, smooth bezel, "P" serial number for a great price!

I would buy from them again. I tried to post pics, but my file size was too big. I'll try again later.

Happy New Year to everyone!
