  • Watch Advice

    I'm looking to make a decision this week and would like some input on the following two pieces:

    1. Cartier Roadster Chronograph Mens' Automatic Watch Two Tone Silver Dial W62027Z1

    2. Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Squadra Chrono GMT Men's Automatic Watch Stainless Steel Silver Dial Q7018120

    I'm leaning towards the JLC due to the info I've heard/read on their craftsmanship but am interested to hear from anyone with personal experience with either brand.

    I'm also looking for feedback on purchasing from either Jomashop or the thewatchery.com from those who have personally purchased from them. Their discounts are good to very good but I'm a little concerned about the warranty issues associated with not purchasing from an authorized dealer.


    Thanks for your help in advance.

    I can't comment on the watches you are interested in but I did recently buy a watch from these guys, http://www.bernardwatch.com , and had a good experience.

      No experience with either watch but I absolutely love JLC, a Master Home Time is on (and will likely forever stay on) my wishlist. I purchased a Tutima from worldlux.com and my Oris from orolus.com and had good experiences at both, worldlux is an authorized dealer which was a nice bonus. I never had an warranty issues though I do need to send my Oris in for service but haven't gotten around to it yet so I have yet to see how that will play out. The one issue I had was with my bank regarding my purchase from Orolus as they are based in Malaysia, my bank thought my card had been stolen the next time I made a purchase but I got that cleared up pretty quickly.

        Well, I bit the bullet and brought the JLC home today...couldn't be happier :)

        I was able to negotiate a good deal with the local authorized dealer, so my concerns around the warranty were addressed. I'll post a pic or two later, when I take the time to put it down.

          Well, here's one really crappy picture...camera battery needs a charge so I'll try to grab another one or two later.
