AP & PP in Toronto, Canada
Where do all of you Torontonians purchase your APs & PPs? I want to thin my heavy Rolex collection and am interested in starting a relationship with these 2 brands. Not looking to go grey.

Humbertown is the only AD for Patek in Toronto.
For AP it’s Royal de Versailles. |

You can't come onto a Rolex site and say you're gonna dump your Rolexes!!!!! I get you just had Thanksgiving and may be realigning your priorities but..... This is like shopping for dogs on the internet while Rover is laying at your feet. MODERATORS??????

I can't wait to own an AP!
Image from old eBay listing It's a shame La Swiss isn't around anymore. They too sold Audemars Piguet at the Bloor Street location. Royal De Versailles is pretty good too. |

Me as well. I tried a friends 15202 on and fell in love with the size of the watch and feel of the bracelet.

For stainless Rolex I have a 16610, 114060, 116610LV, 126710BLRO, 116710BLNR, and 116500. I don't really have a want/need to sell any of them for the sake of selling. But I would be interested in moving a few of them for one nicer piece. The 16610, BLNR and 116500 would be the first to go for me.

Try some on first before reducing your Rolex collection just in case.

I tried on a 39mm Audemars 15202st at Royal de Versailles in Yorkville 2 years back i believe. The blue dial was incredible!

That’s one of the problems with some watches, particularly desirable ones. The first time you get to see one is after waiting for months on end, if not years, before you can actually try one on.

Yes I totally get that. And I am somewhat fine with that as I am interested in other pieces as well. I just want to make sure that I'm building a relationship at the right place.

In Ontario there unfortunately aren't any boutiques. If you go to the AP website they identify specific watches as "boutique exclusive" which means they are only available at boutiques (this includes the 15202 and 15500 blue dial). The closest boutique that I'm aware of would be New York.
