    I recently decided to part with my very nice Panerai Luminor Marina titanium - a watch I bought new in 2006 and wore daily prior to 2016.

    Eddie (from Modern Swiss) handled everything, from shipping instructions and label, to a thorough listing and a fast consignment sale, netting me close to the high end of what he thought was the probable range. He notified me when payment was sent and followed up to confirm the bank transfer had been completed. All in a couple of weeks.

    I haven't met Eddie, and he probably wouldn't expect an acknowledgement here, but the watch/jewelry business has more than its share of profiteers and unsavory types, so a really positive experience deserves a shout out.

    Since this is turning into a @flat_plane_eddie testimonial, here’s mine :) :

    I sold one of my time pieces to Eddie early this year. Super straight forward, very easy transaction at a very fair price. I received funds super fast. Very happy and would definitely recommend!

    I also want to share how much I’ve enjoyed working with Eddie. He helped me find a limited edition Grand Seiko to wear as an everyday watch, and he provided sound advice along the way.

    Recently he helped me purchase my first Patek Philippe. I’ve been dreaming of owning a PP perpetual calendar watch for many years, and Eddie was instrumental in helping me realize that dream. Thank you so much, Eddie!

    I wholeheartedly recommend reaching out to Eddie for assistance with any upcoming watch purchase.

    Thank you very much Andy and glad I could make it happen. The 5236P is a very, very special watch and I know you'll treasure it for a long time!

    Eddie, when we first met through FCHAT you were just beginning to expand your business and you know how much I've enjoyed buying/selling watches to you.
    You're a rare breed in the watch and I look forward in working with you for many years to follow!
