Hi everyone, brand new to the forum, and am about to make my first quality watch purchase and am looking for some for some advice as to where I should buy from. I've decided on getting a Diver 300M Co-axial, and am going to go either gray market or reseller because of the cost savings. I've done my homework on the pro's and con's of gray market, and have narrowed down to 3 sites, as well a reseller, and would like some feedback as to which represents my best option. The 3 gray market dealers are PrestigeTime, Jomashop, and Amazon. Of the 3, Jomashop has the best price @ $2700, but I've read less than satisfactory reviews of the site concerning customer service or warranty service. Prestige has the watch for $2850, but seems to have better customer service, and will use their AD to send the watch back to Omega for service if their in house warranty can't fix it. Amazon has it for around $3000 (price fluctuates), and I have read good things about their warranty, though not concerning high end watches. Finally, a reseller with a good rep has it in new condition for $2900 with factory warranty, and a 24 hr return policy. The reseller accepts wire or paypal(+ processing fee) as payment options, and even though the seller has an excellent rep, I'm leaning towards using Paypal if I go with the reseller, as I'm assuming I would get better fraud protection than wire (if I'm wrong in this assumption please let me know). The only other downside to going reseller is I feel like I'm gonna have to pull the trigger a little sooner than I was planning to, but that's not a deal breaker. Any advice will be greatly appreciated
