Thank you for this post...

 

Thomas, I do not post often (actually this may be my first post) but I have been following this site for a long time. I'd like to thank you for voicing your opinion on this rather controversial matter. Indeed, I am sure there are many, many poorly run non-AD internet sites, but there do seem to be a few who have hold a large stock of watches are are truly knowledgable and passionate about them. I have always been a bit cautious and skeptical about ordering from them because of their non-AD status, but it is reassuring hearing from someone of your knowledge and experience that there are non-AD retailers out there that can provide the same, if not better, service than authorized dealers. I understand as Purists, we are encouraged to voice controversial opinions as long as they are made tactfully and objectively. I am glad and thankful that you have voiced your opinion on this matter.

... I think I can safely state that online dealers with that sum of watches in stock are not too common. Additionally, a well-assorted brick-and-mortar dealer of several brands normally has a substantially higher number of watches in stock, twice to three...

fellow shellfish aficionado, much as it pains me to say this publically, there is some merit to the comments made by Aaron and Cen. Before I comment further, I want to remind you and Rolf how much I have supported the authorized dealer channels, with both...
