Watchbox

Has anyone ordered fro here before? Originally I thought they were tied to an AD in Pennsylvania. That AD said they do not sell pre-owned but that recommended me there, as if it was a partnership with them.

I noticed that they have 6, yes that’s right, 6 Daytona 6500LN’s. It made me wonder how and why? Are that many people flipping them, or is there something else going on. It could just be normal, but not if they are tied to a major AD.

It's a huge operation and pretty trustworthy. It is the used arm of Govberg. They also have a youtube channel that has a lot of interesting watch reviews.

Understood. Similar to Chrono but in-house.

Yes. He can describe a watch better than anyone I have seen.

Have purchased several times from Watchbox, visited their HQ, and met Tim. It’s a class-act, trust-worthy operation.

Tim's the best, they're very reputable, and there are a ton of flippers out there.

Messages above are correct about their affiliation with Govbergs. I have purchased over a dozen from them and have visited their HQ a few times. Can’t say enough good things about them. Top notch all around. On a recent trip there Tim happened to walk by and caught my YM rhodium and gave me a review. The amount of watch knowledge that he has is amazing.

Spoke to Brian Govberg personally today who I’ve known for years, we are doing a deal on a platinum Patek he has on watchbox and we have done a deal before in person...

They are 1000% legit and good to go

It’s a great company, been very happy selling to them in the past and they have an official partnership with my AD which is great for trade-ins.
