    Met with Garry on a rainy day and he presented me with the datejust I requested to see. Was in awe of how beautiful the watch was and knew I had to purchase it. Ron assisted with an adjustment and was helpful too.

    Drove 1 hour to buy a watch but immediately regretted it the trip. Was ignored at first so I approached an older lady and when I asked for a specific watch I felt like I just Inconvenienced her by asking so she pointed at where the watches would be. No Professionalism, No customer Service, wrong demeanor.

    Came here with the intention of buying a Pre-Owned Daytona On Ousterflex they had…Worst experience ever. I walked early morning no customers but me and was completely ignored. Started walking around to see if I can find it myself but eventually was approached by a Lady which asked me if I needed help. I told her I was looking for that specific watch and she replied with “Rolexes are in that shoe horse looking thing” and walked away to start talking to another co-worker. I saw the watch and was standing there for another good 10 minutes. I walked out of there and went to Bucherer in South Coast Plaza which I HIGHLY recommend. I was treated like a VIP and Emma and the Manager went above and beyond. Walked out with my Daytona “Ghost” Reference 116519LN

    Sales department was friendly, but my bracelet broke. After 2 months and 1 day I came in to pick up the bracelet from repair desk. Wow, how rude! Fortunately I kept my receipt. I still don’t have my bracelet, but I left with a pit in my stomach for free.
