In Response To: Need help ()

I'm sending you an AD referral who normally discounts 30%, and is someone that a lot of the regulars here have bought from.

I don't know about Jamaica, but in St. Thomas where there are a TON of high end watch shops, the Omega selections don't tend to be very good, particularly if you're looking for high end Seamasters or anything like a DeVille. In addition, I'm not sure how much I would trust ANY of these shops, because 95% of their business comes from people on cruise boats that they will never see again. Not an environment that is likely to be supportive of a watch dealership taking pride in its customer service capabilities.

The other issue is that if you're not in US territory, there are customs considerations, both when you buy the watch and if you ever have to send it back to the dealer for any reason. Unless you live in Washington DC where this AD is, you can avoid the sales tax in the US, and buy with complete confidence.
