Reputable Vintage Dealers
Looking for a vintage gmt and prefer to buy from a reputable dealer. Any recommendations? Looking for someone who really knows what they are selling.

Why don’t you contact Springer. I will be looking to him when I am ready. His input and knowledge is invaluable on this site. I have no connection to him other than appreciating his posts and willingness to help people.

I deal with these 2 numerous times, perfect every times.

vintageworn.com
They have awesome inventory. How did they find those watches in that condition? Really really good stuff. I’d buy from them if I have that kind of money.

And if you are looking for a GMT Springer is a legend here.

Lovely light patina on the lume plots! Also really like a shiny insert to a glossy dial-great marriage!
