Hi guys,
I'm new to (quality) watches and I've been lurking TRF for the last couple of weeks trying to educate myself. Just paid off my grad school loans and got the wife the ring she deserves; now it's time to get myself a little something. Started with looking at Omegas (still would like a Speedmaster), but now I have my heart set on a Rolex. Hopefully I will be posting pictures of my new watch very soon. As I've mentioned, I'm a newbie at watches. Does anybody know of any quality (good service/offers discounts) Texas AD's that I can deal with? Preferably closer to the San Antonio area. This does not mean I've ruled out dealing with the reputable TRF sellers, but I like to have options. Thanks for sharing all your knowledge TRF! Nathan |

Welcome to TRF!.
As for discounts at ADs. If it's a SS sports model no discount, unless you are a good customer. TTs and precious metals discounts are still a possibility - a high possibility. Yet, AD discounts seem to be disappearing thanks to Rolex.

Thank you again.
Thanks for the info, Mr. Bill. That's sad news about the SS sports models since I'm targeting one for my first Rolex... |
