This was my first experience with SWE. I consulted with Michael who patiently answered all my questions and laid my fears to rest. So, I was so nervous acquiring a watch this way. But since the model I like is discontinued, Lady Datejust 26mm, I took a chance buying an older unworn 26mm.
I would purchase again. Jonathan was such a great help, all the information about the watch and warranty along with the Instructions for the bank wire helped make deciding much easier!!
The watch is beautiful with all the boxes and paperwork in good order. Thanks so much!! My first time shopping here on the website and I call to the store before I purchase my Rolex. I feel nervous from the beginning but after I got to talk to Mr Michel he explained about everything and everyone is friendly and I love my watch is so beautiful. Great experience. Watch was beautiful. As advertised. I have visited their location in Atlanta.
I will buy all my watches from SWE in the future. Thanks for a great experience. He is very knowledgeable, courteous and professional. SwissWatchExpo has a great selection of watches along with competitive prices and the staff in general does an excellent job. The buying process was very easy and the sales team was in constant communication.
They were in constant contact from when I purchased the watch and when it shipped. Unbelievable experience, from the choices available to the condition of my purchase, everything was as promised. My watch purchase from Swiss Watch Expo went very well. Excellent authentic watch. Gentlemen at SWE were very professional. I would recommend them. Mitch my salesman was a perfect gentlemen and honored our agreement for a trade. I bought my wife a Rolex President and the piece was as described.
It was also keeping great time. I will definitely be buying from Swiss Watch Expo in future. Top class dealer. Just outstanding.. True professional.. Excellent experience overall.
I came to my senses and decided to keep the Rolex and bought the Speedmaster 57 for cash. Very nice watch in pristine condition and very pleased with the watch as well as the service from Mitch Michael and Jonathan. Definitely the place to buy quality luxury watches. I recently purchased a Rolex Air King for my boyfriend. It was a very significant purchase for me, as well as a very special gift. Prior to shipping my order, I actually got a phone call to talk a little about my purchase.
They wanted to make sure I knew exactly what I was getting in terms of size, what I could expect from a vintage, as well as how the shipping process was going to work. My package arrived right on time with very secure packaging, discrete so as to not be targeted for theft, required a signature, and came with all the paperwork for the appraisal, etc.
I could not have been happier with my experience, and now that I have finally presented my boyfriend with this gift, I am happy to report he absolutely loves it. Money well spent! I will be doing business with SWE in the future.
