I bought two watches from Ashford.com, an Omega 2531.80 and a women's Constellation, I had both sized at a local authorized dealer. They charged $10 per watch. Ashford told me in advance that they would reimburse the cost of fitting. I faxed them the receipt and they applied a $20 credit to my credit card as they promised. I'd opt to have the watch fitted by a local authorized shop as the difference in in 1/2 link increments can be significant (the SMP has 2- half links) and it is unlikely that any online shop will fine-tune the fit as well as if you and your wrist were present.
