New to Forum - advice/list of Trusted Sellers
Hi All -
I am relatively new to TRF - I recently bought a new 2015 Sub 116610LN, my first Rolex after collecting some Omegas and Tags - but I certainly caught the Rolex bug! A month later I purchased a 1967 Explorer ref. 1016 from 1976 at HQ Milton in San Francisco (Awesome shop - highly recommend!!!!) I have been browsing around and was curious on some suggestions for "Trusted Sellers" I wanted to see if anyone would be willing to share their experience in purchasing vintage as well as NOS from trusted sellers on the forum - is there a list of trusted sellers? Sorry if its a dumb question, still navigating forum and could use some help! Any suggestions, recommendations or advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Mike |

Read the reviews in the who's who section, vet them a bit and you'll be fine. You'll see a few of the Niger volume, higher post count folks. If they've been here a while, sold a lot of watches, you'll be safe.
Do you think they'd last long if they continually scammed us?

New to Forum - advice/list of Trusted Sellers
While there isn't a moderated list per se, there are some names posted in a Stickie in the vintage section. It's a list of trusted vintage watch sellers/shops/webistes we have previously purchased from/heard good things about in one place for easy reference.

That's supposed to be "higher" not "Niger". Although I hear Niger is nice this time of year
