Very good information...
I haven't yet purchased from a boutique shop as the watches I had weren't special editions or something similar. I definitely agree that it comes down to what kind of watch you wish to buy. If it was a unique, rare piece the extra money you spend at a bou...
Boutique shop vs. AD...
In some countries, boutique shops are sometimes run by local ADs. For example, Rolex boutique shops in Hong Kong are owned by a local watch & jewelry retail group. You can pretty much consider them as ADs that carry only one brand. To decide whether t...
