Hi all,
I’ve purchased a couple of pieces from what used to be Tourneau in the KOP mall. They had what I was looking for at the time but I’ve never felt like they were interested in having me as a client. Can any one recommend a Phila area AD that works to build relationships and might be able to acquire pieces given the current market conditions.

Thanks.

My go to AD is Benari in Exton.

Seconded on Benari. They play it straight re whether you might get an allocation or not. This allows you to focus on achievable models vs playing an expensive guessing game. I really respect that.

I’ll second the recommendation for Govberg. Ask for Greg. Great customer service!

As others have mentioned....Benari in Exton or Govberg in Phila or Ardmore. I go to them for almost everything outside of the Omega Boutique, unless Torneau calls with a SS Rolex piece then my loyalty takes a side step for a moment.

Govberg Suburban Square (Ardmore) is only pre-owned Rolex. So you may as well go Watchbox online (Govberg owned). If you want new Rolex, you have to go to Philadelphia store. Or at least that's what the SA in Ardmore told me a few months back.

Just wish there were more Omega options in the area.

Go Brent Miller Jewelers in Lancaster. A bit of a drive (about 50 minutes from where I live in Chester County), but he has a fantastic Omega selection. Also Tudor, Breitling, and others. A great family owned shop.

Bernie Robbins…ask for Harvey

Thanks. I did stop there a few weeks ago, really nice folks, but as you said, it’s quite a drive from the Philadelphia area.
