Grey dealers in Canada?

Lately I have been seeking high and low like many others for a Sports model.
Nothing from my preferred AD for a while so I was wanting to test out the Grey market. With the USA guys a bit high once I factor in the USD/CDN conversion.

Anyone have any suggestions? The 2 I have tried in Vancouver are flaky and do not even text back.

Distinctive time inc in your neck of the woods, Watchfinder and Van Rijk in Toronto and Timeless watches in Montreal are your best bets for established Grey Market dealers in Canada. Good luck.

I know of watchfinders dot ca (not the UK company by the same name) and Johnny Watches both in Toronto and have been in both stores, which have decent selections but I haven’t transacted with them so can’t advise on flakiness.

Ok thanks guys I will look into some of the names above. I will say that Distinctive time inc was either slow to reply or never does.Bad timing maybe or something

That’s surprising, David (Distinctive Time inc.) is usually great with response in my experience with him.

I second the above. Try the Montreal guys. They are far more professional and respond quickly.
