Costco: Best Place To Buy Gray?
Well, I just ordered a new watch, my third watch purchase from Costco. We all read bad things about buying gray, particularly from the more famous online gray market watch sites. I myself have ordered exactly one watch online during the past two years; I'm just tired of hearing about what goes on with other buyers, plus, I find it really hard to get packages delivered here in the NYC area. Stuff just disappears.
However, for my money (literally), Costco is a cut above the fray. I mean - have you ever seen their warranty? It's so far and above even what new watch stores offer, it's amazing:
That's about as good as it gets. I wish I had saved my receipt for a Seiko diver I bought there; the damn thing hasn't run right from the get-go (typical Seiko wonky crown), and I'd wager they'd have made good on it.
So, anyway, I was on the Costco website and saw a watch I'd always coveted available for order, with pickup at my local warehouse, as they dub their stores. It's a brand that's one of my favorites, the deal was killer, and I know that a WL member owns the same watch. Should have it by Monday, at least; I'll let y'all guess what I'm picking up (again).
