And have you personally experienced these horror stories consigning or basising off what you have "read"? I have consigned over 7 figure's worth of watches through multiple dealers and never had an issue. Ever. Will never sell a watch again on my own. Not all dealers are created equal.

I have another grey dealer who offered it to me for 33k out the door ( I went with them instead)

I understand now why you’re so salty. You are paying / have paid grey market prices for your Daytonas…

I am coming to LA early next month and wanted to bring a few pieces over to sell and wanted to know who the best dealers are around LA. Santa Monica area or Manhattan Beach area is where I will be located for a few days.

All 3 watches will be Full Set and in Mint condition etc

TIA

Out of curiosity, what brand and models you are trying to sell ?

OCWatchguy, speak to Patrick. I have purchased, traded and sold watches with him for years, never had a problem. He is a stand-up guy.

I agree generally, consignment is a little more risky however pick your grey and it’ll be okay.

Personally, I just don’t sell anything.
