Can someone please give me some advice on whom is the best online gray Rolex dealer???

TempoKing · 27 May 2008, 02:07 PM

That is a very good question, I also would like to know.

MrCowboy99 · 27 May 2008, 02:12 PM

I have heard two from here. One is alan furman and the other is swissluxury.com. I don't have experience with either (yet).

CPCC · 27 May 2008, 02:31 PM

I have bought 3 Rollies from Alan Furman. Solid dealer with great prices.

good2go · 27 May 2008, 02:47 PM

Bought my watches here, including my rollie...it's good to go.

I got my tt blue sub from bernard great guys

If you want to go preowned, the www.preownedrolex.com site is said to be a good one, too.

artbypaul · 27 May 2008, 11:14 PM

Another vote for Bernard Watch!
Old World Jewelers is also a very honest dealer with clean stock.

Alan Furman.

fsouth · 27 May 2008, 11:44 PM

I have extensive dealings with Wingates. Bob Wingate is a very honest stand up guy!

rpastir · 28 May 2008, 12:53 AM

Cayce at preownedrolex.com is good to deal with. He's got great watches at good prices. I've bought 2 from him.

Marrk · 28 May 2008, 02:35 AM

I'd be grateful if someone would post a precise definition of the term "grey dealer." Is it a non-AD who gets his supply, not from Rolex, but from ADs? How does buying from a grey dealer affect your post-purchase relationship with Rolex and the RSCs? Will an RSC service a grey dealer watch?

Many thanks.

evy411nia · 28 May 2008, 02:42 AM

I would recommend my dealer, Gary Loyjack out of Pennsylvania. Honest and straight up, very reliable on shipping, prices are among the best I've seen. He's on E-bay under the name "buckojoe" or you can call him direct at 570-499-1492. Usually has the ability to get you more than he has posted on his e-bay store.

nch209 · 28 May 2008, 02:44 AM

Just dealt with Swiss Luxary and they were great!

llamaofdoom · 28 May 2008, 03:01 AM

Capetown Diamonds in Roswell ,GA. www.capetownstore.com. Local family business in existence for (I believe) over 30 years. Jonathan and Carl Marcus are good people. I've known them for years, and have bought/sold a fair number of watches with them.

I can recommend them without any reservation.

highroller · 28 May 2008, 04:07 AM

www.watchmastres.net Stuart is a great person to deal with.Gott my datejust from him

GMTJOHNNY · 28 May 2008, 05:40 AM

I swear by www.demesy.com. I got my YG DD from Joe and could not be happier.

Beemer · 28 May 2008, 05:40 AM

Another vote for Bernard, very honest.

I agree. Gary (last name spelled Loyack) has been around for years and well regarded here and another popular Rolex web site.

X2!....and Cayce will also watch out for your desired model if ya let him know.

Another vote for Demsey bought my 118238 DD a short while ago and very pleased.

txrob779 · 28 May 2008, 09:27 AM

DGSE.com...............Dallas gold and Silver Exchange. Great folks, stand behind these Rolex's, great prices 2 year warranty and in house service for 1/2 the price of Rolex.

stnmikita · 28 May 2008, 01:40 PM

Bernard Watch was a pleasure to deal with, although you could probably find better prices buying directly from an owner. Although I was unable to buy from Cayce (preownedrolex.com) he was good to deal with.

Just a note regarding the dealer buckojoe. I purchased a watch from him several years ago. The watch was genuine but delivered with a defect. He insisted that I send it to rolex for repair before getting "his jeweler" to look at the watch. Resulted in quite a hassle and an experience I would not like to experience again.

+1 for Cayce...Great guy, awesome prices!

DesertDogs · 8 March 2009, 12:24 PM

We have purchased several from Steve at AboutTime.com. Very reliable and you get the original 2-year Rolex warranty. I even have a couple of testimonials posted on the website.

Sperry · 8 March 2009, 12:29 PM

There are several I'd trust.

TempoKing has my vote when I'm ready for a white gold DayDate.
Or to refer anyone who wants a fast, very fair deal.

John Luton, who pops up on TZ with fantastic, clean deals, is a contender. But his sell within minutes.

Braunschweiger, in New Jersey, is dropping their AD status.
One would find them very nice with which to deal. Unbelievable when one considers it is still from an AD.

Discounts similar to that of our famed Tempo King, perhaps exceeding slightly, when one includes shipping, etc.
And you get the Rolex two year warranty. But you are limited to their stock.

Bernard Watch returned my emails promptly, and has great information. I'd trust them.

I also bugged the crap out of SwissWrist, and to a lesser extent, SwissLuxury.
I'd buy new from either, and maybe pre-owned as well.

However, I finally decided to buy from a collector who has one too many watches in his pile.
After all the checking I did, I'm comfortable I can sell the watch for what I paid, if my tastes change.
It should be here Tuesday or Wednesday. New pictures will be available in time.
