Ever used Jomashop to buy a Rolex?
I know the site is legit and all good, but what about buying a Rolex through them ? Are they delievered with everything just like a regular AD ?
Seems they have good discount on some of the watches atm, specially the GMT SG. https://www.jomashop.com/rolex.html?...er=bestsellers |

I would only use a gray market dealer if it was a mid-tier brand. The problem with buying a Rolex from Jomashop is they do not give your the warranty card (aka the "papers") so the immediate savings you get is not worth the actual loss of value from the get-go. Also, most of the TS here already beat Joma's price (and won't ship "within 6 months")

Never dealt with them, but from what I have read. Rolex does not honor their warranty for watches purchased from them. Jomashop provides their own warranty.
Their return policy is not good. You will end with a large return fee if you have to send the watch back. |

Their SubC is higher than MSRP. Last i checked SubC was available at ADs.
You also don't get a 5 year Rolex warranty, but rather 12 months joomashop warranty. their SD4K is also over msrp. The YM is more than the deal i got from my AD. I'd say, not a good deal really.

They’re asking $8995 for a new Sub Date. I paid $7550 + tax for mine NIB from my AD. Why on earth would you buy from Joma?
I have bought a few sub $500 Hamilton watches from them in the past and had no problems but I’d never buy a Rolex from them. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

I've bought many watches from them, and have been very happy with everything I've gotten from them, with only 1 exception. The discount on most non-Rolex brands means that even if you factor in a service you still come out ahead. I would not buy a Rolex from them; however. Their pricing on Rolex's generally is at best equal to what you'd get from an AD or a trusted seller here on the forums, but no Rolex warranty, so not worth it.

Rolex no. Other watches yes. The savings on Rolex is minimal, some are over MSRP. Use TRF sellers or AD.
