Absolutely loved working with these guys. I bought the watch while deployed in Iraq so everything had to be done over the phone. They stay in contact with me and helped me work out all the logistics. I 100% will be buying my next watch with them soon.
Very satisfied client. Best value for my money and superb customer support. The watch is impeccable I may add. Thank you, kindly!
Steven, was very knowledgeable and convincing me to buy in a very nice way.
Excellent as advertised product. Amazing, unexpected customer service. Rapid delivery. What more could you ask for? 5 STARS definitely!!!
Update. I have just purchased my second watch from Swiss Watch Expo a Beautiful Panerai Luminor, Chrono Flyback, Zebra Ti Ceramic watch PAM01297. This watch is flawless and in like new condition. I had the pleasure to work my deal again with Vlad, who is one of the most professional and knowledgeable watch specialist I have ever met. Vlad returns all calls and answers all of your watch questions. If you are in the market to trade your current timepiece for a new preowned watch, or just looking to purchase a new watch, Swiss Watch Expo has a superb collection of nearly every brand watch you would want. Give them a call or email you will not be disappointed!! I just traded my Panerai Navy Seals for the Panerai Marina Militare 47mm beautiful watch!!! My watch arrived just as described in mint near new condition. I worked with one of the most professional and knowledgeable watch specialist Vlad who took the time to answer all of my questions as this was the first time I have purchased from Swiss Watch Expo. I can’t thank Swiss Watch Expo and Vlad enough. I will be back for my next watch in the future. If you are looking for your perfect watch you must check out Swiss Watch Expo!!
Ro (Romain) was amazing in helping me get the watch I wanted. He was communicative and efficient. The watch is exactly what I had hoped for, in perfect mint condition. I will not hesitate to purchase another watch from SWE!
Swiss Watch Expo is legit. I was able to deal on FaceTime with Angel. She introduced her store, their extensive inventory, the watch repair expert, and her manager. The wire was handled smoothly and the watch arrived my house as expected. The packaging of the watch was good as well. There may be scams out there on the internet but Swiss Watch Expo is not one of them! Happy to deal with them again in the future!
Excellent service!!!!!!!A+
Quality of selection, customer service, and reliability. Recommend
Purhased a timepiece. The sales people that I dealt with were exceptional.
An exceptional watch dealer! The watch arrived precisely as described and depicted in the photographs on the website. Ian provided comprehensive support throughout my purchasing process, ensuring that I understood all aspects of the transaction. I would highly recommend this dealer for future watch purchases.
Great company with solid selections at market price. I purchased an Omega 2538.20.00. Watch showed up earlier than expected, and it ended up looking better in person than the photos lead on to believe. The pictures highlighted all wear and tear very accurately. I would buy again from SWE.
I recently purchased a pre-owned Breitling from this retailer, and couldn’t have been more satisfied with the process. Order handled smoothly, delivery was quick, and all checked out with the purchase. I admittedly was a bit nervous about purchasing a timepiece online, but I am definitely going to shop here again when ready to expand on my collection. Thanks so much!
I've purchased from SwisswatchExpo twice now. And have had an amazing experience both times. I'm very pleased with my Explorer II and my Submariner, both of which are daily wears for me now. All of of my interactions with them have always been helpful and professional. For my latest purchase, the sub I initially wanted sold before I made my final decision, and Michael was very helpful in walking me through the process and finding another Sub in even better condition, at a fair price. I would strongly recommend SWE and I will be definitely be purchasing from them again in the future!
excellent - I received my Submariner as expected... your staff was very helpful.
I just bought my first luxury watch! So excited! I waited 30 years for this, and I could not be more happy with the watch and the service I was provided! Vlad assisted me with my purchase, did two FaceTime calls with me, and set all my concerns at ease. I wish I would have pulled the trigger years ago! Vlad has also answered 3 other calls post purchase to answer questions for me. Do your research, and in the end, you’re going to see that these guys are great at what they do! Thank you Vlad and thank you SWE! Fan for life!
Top notch customer service. Every watch bought was confirmed to be great quality by my AD at Rolex.
Honest, open, and professional with the entire transaction. Of course, I worried about making such a purchase online but every block was checked and the entire process was with open communications. Accurate and detailed sales ads also helped very much.
Although I was a bit skeptical about the online store, I requested for a FaceTime session and the lady was showing me not just the close look of the watch but also walked around the store to show me all the staffs diligently working. Once I placed the order, I received the watch two days later and every step was so smooth. So thank you so much.
Swiss Watch Expo ! Congratulations to me on the purchase of this handsome Rolex 2014 116610-LV This watch was made to be worn by me! Your sales staff and team were professional and their description was exactly what I received! It was like new . I could not be happier. I’m already eyeing my next Rolex Yacht Master 11 You guys really understate your professionalism. Thank you Sal
Great experience working with Swiss watch expo. My Breitling showed up in prestige condition! Highly recommend them!
I had a great experience with purchasing a beautiful Omega watch. We FaceTime to help with my decision to purchase my watch. She (saleswoman) was knowledgeable, not pressuring, & answering all questions that I had. I highly recommend buying your luxury watch from Swiss Watch Expose.
Great professional company. Responsive and great values and unbelievable selection and depth of inventory.
Reputable place to buy luxury watches. Happy with purchase.
As anyone would be, I was very concerned about purchasing a luxury timepiece online. Jenny eased ever concern through video chat and tour. She answered every question and made me feel totally comfortable. After the timepiece arrived I took it to an Authorized Dealer who inspected and said I "got a great piece". Would definitely buy again!
SWE has a great selection of used watches. The prices are set to the correct value in my opinion.
The process of buying the watch was very smooth , the item description was very accurate , I was able to do a FaceTime to see the watch and received a store tour , the delivery process was excellent as was promised .the watch has been accurate. I am very happy I found you guys and for sure I will purchase again from you , Thank you very much , Ricardo
Simple easy and watch was in A+ condition. The packaging was great and they send it insured and also provide their gift bag and extra watch case and thank you card. Highly impressed!
Great experience with Angel and Vlad on the watch purchase.
Loved the entire experience. Was able to try on each watch in the Atlanta store. Had it sized and received all the authenticity papers and appraisal for my insurance. Saved so much money buying pre-owned and it was in excellent condition. Will buy another Rolex soon for sure.
Excellent to deal with professional and great service. Allowed for video of item and reputable staff. Knowledgeable
I recently purchased a watch with SWE and was apprehensive at first, but after speaking to the Sales staff and getting my questions answered, I took the plunge. I was pleasantly surprised at how smooth the process was from ordering to receiving my watch. I received it in the time specified and LOVE MY NEW WATCH! It looks brand new and meets all my checks. It's exactly what I wanted and I'm glad I decided to go with SWE for my pre-owned timepiece!
I went to many sites to look for a Rolex. I admit I'm a watch Ho! I have 26. Not cheap ones either. SWE helped me find my dream watch. Jenna was amazing to work with. She was always willing to answer questions and show me watches. Having been in jewelry retail myself I did my research before I called the first time. Jenna was knowledgable and easy to work with. If you are wanting to step up into high end watches please give Swiss Watch Expo a chance to help you find your dream watch. Dorree B.
Couldn't be happier with my Breitling watch. Watch arrived just as described - perfectly packaged and exceptional condition. I am more than happy with the shipping, product and overall experience. First time using Swiss watch expo and they have earned my long term business for additional watches.
Great experience overall! I had a few questions on a watch and customer service recommended I do a live FaceTime with a consultant who answered my questions and showed me the watch! Made me feel very comfortable!
Frankly I was a little hesitant buying a preowned watch online with the price tag of Presidential Rolex but honestly, it could not have gone better. The sales team responded with a video call at my scheduled time and went through the three options I had selected on their site and the photos are obviously under perfect lighting but on the video chat they were perfect. They were upfront on any perfections and I ended up choosing the one that was in “Mint” condition and when it arrived it was truly in MINT condition. It looked brand new for half the price. I had a link removed by the local Rolex retailer and he was amazed as well. All of the info checked out and I would definitely purchase again. Swiss Watch Expo is LEGIT!
Customer service was excellent- was looking for a watch for my wife’s birthday, the store FaceTime me and was able to show me the stock. Watch arrived next day is excellent condition will definitely shop here again.
Wonderfull experience and 5 star customer service
Easy transaction, good communication via email, secure and quick shipping.
had a very good experience at Swiss watch Expo. Pretty straightforward Vlad was very good. Very thorough. Changed my watch strap for me. on a Daytona rubber strap. while I was there.No issues. Overall, I was pleased.
Working with Jonathan to select the perfect watch for my wife was a pleasure. He was super helpful and knowledgeable. My watch was delivered immediately and upon inspection it was exactly as described. I will definitely shop with SwissWatchExpo when I am ready to purchased another watch.
Great (Michael and Vlad)people, products and prices....Thanks again!!
Excellent customer service.. Beautiful watch in mint condition..
It was a great experience. Roe was great. Parking at the store was a challenge but the service was great.
I’ve been trying to upgrade my Rolex watch for a while. As I was searching I found Swiss watch expo and loved the selection. From the time I reached out to the end they were very responsive and offered fair price for my old watch and I bought the one I really liked. The entire transaction was done very professionally. I highly recommend this business.
Watch came very fast and was in excellent condition. Service team was great as well. Very easy purchasing experience.
What a fantastic team of folks! A 100% seamless experience in acquiring this 2002 Coke GMT II. From start to finish, just super. I found the watch over the weekend, inquired, did a FaceTime viewing on a Monday, set up payment and was wearing the watch by Friday afternoon. I was updated every step of the way. Vlad Malevich was just great in setting me up and getting this amazing piece on my wrist. HIGHLY recommend!
I had a beautiful experience dealing with SWE. I traded a gold 40mm Rolex Day Date for 2 watches. The evaluation they gave me for my watch was super fair and I also compared it with several other shops. The watches I liked to trade with ar rived safely the following day. They were exactly in the same conditions of the pictures, they also included appraisals for both watches free of charge, that made my insurance process much easier. I typically pay $100 for an appraisal for a watch at my local watch shop. I will definitely do more business with them. Michael was super nice and helpful and made the transition going very smoothly.

The watch was perfect. As I had expected. Easy transaction
Great experience, knowledgable salesperson, excellent watches.
