Check out the trusted dealer section. They're all good in their own ways, but browse the sites until you find a watch for you and inquire with the dealer. Do plenty of research and ask lots of questions!

When i bought my first rep a DSSD it took me a month to figure out what i wanted.
Then it cost me a month to read all about that model on the boards pros and cons of different models/ factories.
Than it took me a week or so to pic my dealer based on my location and feedback of senior members.
Than i ordered my first rep, in the mean time there much better DSSD's but its my first one, and i like him as my first step into this rep world

I don't mean to hijack this thread, but it *is* so general and i have a specific question . . .

Does anyone have any sourcing suggestions for box sets?

I have a couple TAG Heuer Formula 1 watches (one gen, one rep) for which I'd like to get boxes. I bought the gen watch from a grey market dealer and only received the service box. I see the box sets all over - e.g., PureTime, TimeShops, TrustyTime, etc. - but, as with any aftermarket item, I'm sure there are varying degrees of quality.

Try aobobuy for boxes. Not a TD here but generally no problem with reasonable price.

Do all TD source their watches from the same place? I wanted Swiss ETA 7750 movement but it seems that noone on the TD list carries those and in on a thread I started I was told that either I chose Asian Movement or I would have to go Gen.

So having said that... is there a comparison as to who sources the best HBB? I am also looking for a Daytona Chrono, a Breitling Navitimer and a Cartier Calibre Chrono. I am slo digging that DSSD sardonix... may I ask where you got it?

Thanks mate, like i said it was the first rep i bought. It came from a local dealer here in Holland, i ordered the best there was at that time, i think it is a V5 noob factory ultimate version with stated swiss Eta movement.

Is there newer versions? Where can I get one with Swiss movement? I have read through the thread of Asian 7750 vs Swiss and it seems inconclusive???
