Great service overall!
Great service overall. Excellent communication and a pleasure to deal with. Even when the delivered watch had a problem with the crown failing, an offer to fix was quickly forthcoming, even though I elected to use my preferred watchmaker. I would recommend this seller and would buy again in the future.

The watch was more beautiful in person…
The watch was more beautiful in person than in pictures - an excellent example. UPS made a mistake in delivering the package and TheWatchCollector worked with me until we found the package and got it delivered. Really appreciate that. A+
