I’m joining the club tomorrow

My local AD called me. They just got the GMT Batman today.

None of their loyal customers had it on their hit list. I called him and will go after my scheduled meetings.

I plan on paying with an American Express to get an extra year’s warranty.

I guess the biggest question I have is who should I use to insure my new purchase.

I’m not a home owner, and I’m about to move to the U.K.?

If anyone has any recommendations, please let me know.

Thank you in advance.

I recommend Jeweler's Mutual.

Congrats on your purchase!

Plan to put the watch on my amex too... once I get the call. If you have plat or above, the three month purchase protection would function similar to insurance.

I know that JM covers damage abroad. If he gets it insured prior to moving to the UK, I think he would be covered. A quick call to them would confirm.

Forget the extra year's warranty, you only want Rolex working on your watch and you have 5 years. Do a search here for UK insurance, lots of threads and reviews.

JMis in Canada too. Not sure about UK. Make sure that you will still have coverage if your address changes

I typically give all my watches girl names.

Maybe that doesn’t fit the Batman, LOL.

Congrats!!! Call you car insurance company and tell them you need a jewelry rider.
I would read the reviews of JM. They were a lot more than State Farm for my 5 watch collection. Plus my wife's stuff.
