I am thinking about buying a daytona from this company. Has anyone ever dealt with them? Are they trustworthy?

Listen here, they are a brick and mortar place that actually exists so I wouldn't be afraid they would rip you off in the sense that you would get a face or you wouldn't get your watch (considering you're having it shipped) BUT, from what I see it seems they definitely sell used timepieces that they probably polish and service themselves to bring them up to par. Now that is up to you if you feel comfortable buying a watch that has not been serviced by Rolex themselves (not saying no other watchmaker is not competent enough, but just stating the facts from someone you don't trust, yet). So keep that in mind. My best advice is to buy a Daytona from a trusted seller here on the forum in the for sale section. You'll get a great deal and also great peace of mind that the watch was cared for and serviced correctly if needed.
