Someone waited three years for a watch. Where I live there is an AP boutique. The last time I was in was approximately 5 years ago and not to buy a watch. Learn to live with AP’s marketing or try another brand.

Plenty of other high horology brands that at least made the effort of having retailers here and will take my money instead from now on.
I absolutely agree.

I’d also add that I would be worried about service. AP is still showing the Ottawa location for service, but who knows how long that will last

Honestly, I keep hearing about how awesome AP Boutique service has been... But, quite frankly, my experience in the US has been lackluster when compared to other single-brand boutiques and ADs.

I can't figure out why.

Well looks like I gotta move to the states.
I live in Toronto and as far as i know Royal De Versailles was the only AD that carried AP. Was this the boutique you were referring to?

have you guys considered as I have going to a Caribbean Islands' AP AD? they have a couple down there, as it might be tax free (or very little). I wonder if they'll have desired models available.
