Those very obese brothers who have a popular YouTube channel are somewhere in Texas, but I’ve never dealt with them personally.

You have a rather rich selection of ADs in Texas, already tried that route?

Wolvyn is who OSU is talking about. They are in Dallas and so is Grand Caliber. Marco has helped me out with something before and was nice.

Go to Takuya in Houston, it's closer than Dallas. Though he would overnight it like he did for me during Christmas timeframe.

yeah I tried both in Austin and one in San Antonio... but all three were like - oh you need to establish a relationship... i.e. spent tens of thousands in order to get a watch at MSRP after several years of wait? I would rather spend extra 5-6K and get what I want pronto...

Bernard Watch in Austin, meetings by appointment only. Smallish selection, but excellent reputation and been around a very long time.

If you know what you want, just call Takuya (Than) and he’ll overnight it to you. If you need to see it IRL first, go find what you want at your local AD, then call Than.

Broadway Watches in San Antonio is a good store with a decent inventory.
It’s also a full service shop and does repairs in house.
I have a watch there right now for repair.
The owner texted me this morning that the hard to find part was located in Germany.
