Authentic Watch vs Jomashop

[SeanE]

Does anybody have feedback on Authenticwatches.com? I am looking at a 31mm Datejust for my wife on that website. They also have the same watch on Jomashop for a little bit more. I've used Jomashop and been happy, but it seems the warranty is better with Authentic.

I got warranty cards with my jomashop purchases. Dated, blank name.

Sorry, no feedback on either of those dealers. Their warrantees may be their own, not Rolex.

Have you considered buying from a trusted seller? Here's an example of a 31mm DJ with a genuine Rolex warranty:

David's price is $575 above retail, but there'd be no sales tax.

Or take a nice drive up to Portsmouth and visit my AD, Springer's Jewelers - again, no sales tax. Call first, they're still appointment only.

Good hunting!

I bought my mom a Cartier on Authentic and no issues, had it sized at a Cartier boutique.

I've bought a Tudor from each. No factory warranties or cards. No instruction booklet from Authentic. Both are competitive. Ive had no issues with either, both pieces had stickers but also no experience with any questions or returns.

I bought an Onega from joma. Sales process was no issue. Went smoothly as mentioned in other comments. No warranty card. I have heard bad stories from the warranty side of these companies. Take that with a grain of salt. I have heard horror stories with Rolex service centers as well (but obviously Rolex is a much better experience I’d assume).

I will never use Authenticwatches.

I would use a trusted seller, but I would be shocked if they have the piece she wants. I can keep looking over time, though. WatchGuyNYC might also be a good option, too.
