Always from an AD for both new and pre-owned. I’ve always been able to get what I want without looking further.

Wow, I have never heard of this rough formula before. It makes total sense.

I do both. I get what I get from my AD's and I'm always shopping for a good deal from the grays I frequent.

I’ve bought all my watches for me & my wife from dealers right here on the forum.

All mine were either from ADs (60%), or from Japan at Nakano Broadway (40%)

AD for me. I like buying new and the certainty of the transaction and I actually like my gal at the store. But my collection is small. 2 Rolex. 1 Tudor. 1 Cartier for the missus. Maybe a Zenith or Tag someday but nothing has really inspired me. If I was more of a collector or willing to paying a premium on pricing, I would order new or used from Hodinkee or DavidSW for sure.

Neither. I buy from collectors as I'm a 5 digit guy with extreme Rolex OCD - so only the best LNOS etc... :D
