Mosco appreciation thread-
A couple weeks ago I was milling around looking for an Oris Classic. Greg aka "Mosco" got a hold of me and hooked me up with a great deal! His store CaliberSwiss is a great place to score some fantastic deals. Even though my purchase wouldn't come anywhere near the size of sale of the truly magnificent pieces he has to offer he was a tremendous help. So if you're after anything from a Rolex to Ulysse to any number of the finest watches the world has to offer, Mosco will save you some serious cash and provide great customer service.
Thanks again Greg!!

Russell - THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
This is one of the nicest people you will ever come across! Everything went as promised, snag-free. I truly appreciate it, my friend!

I still got to come over and see some of the watches you have. Seriously, we should have a Cincinnati mini get together. I am down one watch though - today was a sad day. I sold my Panerai 024 as I wanted to free up some cash for an eventual move within the city.
I already miss it but if I really want one again, they are out there. However, I may have to go with a 112 instead.

Greg is not only a seriously well-rounded watch guy, he is also willing to give you some really valuable information and answers if you just ask him. He helped me avoid paying WAY too much for a Bell & Ross, and all I did was post a question.
He is one of the many, many reasons I continue to come here.

Thank You for that - I appreciate the kind words. I have been around watches all my life, so it gives me pleasure to help out other collectors. Not a selfless act by any meant - I truly enjoy it! Again, THANK YOU!

Greg is a heck of a guy.
Not many guys who sell watches for a living will help you pick the perfect watch for you even if it isn't something he carries..... I have a feeling my next watch is going to be coming from him... If it works out one stipulation I will make on the sale is that he allows me to come down to Cinci to do the deal in person and lets me take him out for a good dinner!

It is my pleasure! You're definitely one of those people who make TRF a great place! First and foremost, I am a collector and an enthusiast. I don't care if it comes from me - it gives me pleasure to find a happy home for a wonderful timepiece. And man, you're welcome to come down ANYTIME, no excuse needed! If you take me to dinner, drinks are on me afterward!

Although I didn't purchased anything from Greg (almost did), he was very kind enough to offer great savings without even asking for them. What a guy!

This is making me feel good!! Looking at getting a new DSSD from Mosco(Greg.) Bought a Milgauss GV late 2011, wore less than 15 times, and looking to sell/trade for something a lil' more durable/everyday watch. Plus no suits here...just scrubs ;-) LOVE the TRF and its members. Some great folks for sure! I should have joined months ago, instead of just lurking.

Greg's ok if you like an honest, friendly, selfless, generous, and knowledgable seller. Lots of fun to hang with too.

Greg, it's too bad I don't have the chance to know you better! I must say I do appreciate your posts around here a lot and the comments left by other fellows on TRF can only make me come to this conclusion...
...You are a gentleman!

Can't say enough about how Greg has helped his customers AND people who never spent a dime with him! Total class act, would do business with him in a second!! Not to mention the fact that I'm a Johnny Depp fan and was an avid reader of anything Hunter S. Thompson wrote! Greg you are the man!!

Greg is top notch all the way. Always make time to answer my questions. Made a huge purchase with him in the past and it was smooth as silk. He is a great contributor to this forum and have a fantastic selection of watches. If he doesn't have one in stock he will work to find you one. Five stars service and nothing less.
