Im bad enough to myself about spending money on shit i dont NEED, like watches. And now i have too much oney in the bank to start looking at houses so I dont need you...coming here...showing me awesome Speedy's.....damn....is that all they are...hmmm....no no no....
And @Phl218 Here you go...If i wasnt into buy a house in the spring...i would have already sent a PM... Thats about 5k US... https://omegaforums.net/threads/red...16570-p-series-2001-holes-case-sel-vgc.84899/
That Explorer II is a solid deal. Most of them I see under 5k are a bit beat and no papers. I bet he would take 7000aud shipped which is a hair over 4900.
Ok guys, I'm getting close to being serious about a Hamilton and need to know where to buy. I actually went into the local store and put it on, but I need to decide between AD and online. I have my eye on one that's almost $1K retail, but can be had for about $600 on Joma.
Ive never used them (just havent bought any new ones in a while) but plenty here swear by Joma. I cant remember if the Joma warranty is factory or them (ie grey market) Now which Hammy you looking at?
Joma is grey market, so they do their own warranty. https://www.hamiltonwatch.com/en-int/h64715885-khaki-aviation-pilot-day-date-auto.html
I’ve been lusting after this Hamilton lately. Wanting to check it out in person before I buy one though.
Thats what i thought. That price point is a pretty good difference and Joma has a good rep, I wouldnt worry too much. Also did you know they recently released a no day/date 50mm pilot in a limited edition. The numbers are 1mm of superluminova. Its a massive watch. Theres a BNIB one on WUS for like $750 or something...
I have not used Joma but I know a bunch of people who have. I have never heard of any problems. I have owned a couple of Hamilton's and have beat the crap out of a Hamilton Khaki. I have never had any need for warranty, so I wouldn't worry about that too much.
I used Jomas for quite a few watches under a grand and no complaints what so ever with them. I wouldn't use them for something like a Rolex but I would and have bought a hamilton or two from them. Does Jomas have the one you want? How was your AD? Did you talk pricing with them?
I haven't done anything through Jewelry stores before, so I don't really have a comparison point. The lady that helped me was nice, friendly, and knowledgeable. At least as far as I can tell she was. I didn't go into pricing at all because I knew I wasn't buying at that moment. I know they won't on something like a Rolex, but do ADs usually have pretty good negotiation room?
Citizen, Hamilton, Longines, Omega, TAG, Breitling, Rolex Fink's Jewelers - looks like they have some stores in VA as well. It appears that Jared carries them in town as well.
