Watch buying in Italy

Have browsed the internet and seen a shop in Italy, Torino selling NIB Rolex models almost 28% cheaper then the UK RRP. Just wondering if anyone has bought from this shop either online or in person. It is called Prestigio Del Tempo

I hadn't come across them before Bucky but, assuming they're all 'above board', their prices look excellent.

It's a very well known shop in Turin, I've read a lot of good reviews here in Italy on Italian forums, they have excellent prices. There's also an ebay channel were they present their watches.

A well renowed shop here in Italy but I've usually looked elsewhere anyway.

It depends where you are. Where I live we have everything from Rolex to Patek to Urwerk all in a very short walking distance from each other but of course discount is not an option.

I just spent the last two weeks in Italy and found that the prices were not attractive. I anticipated this would be the case. I did not actively search out Rolex AD's, but if I came across one I definitely took a look.
