In all fairness, the distribution channel doesn't matter all that much with most watches. All that really matters is that the seller is reputable, selling only authentic products, and has a reasonable returns/exchange policy.

One place I check regularly is Overstock.com. They are an excellent place to buy from and for a knowledgeable watch buyer, there are some seriously outstanding deals to be had there. They even have decent enough prices on pre-owned watches.

Here's an example of a great buy at The O. It's a Vulcain 50 Presidents simple watch. It has an excellent in-house movement and the selling price is great at 40% off. Yes, it's a NOS watch, but Vulcain never made a crappy watch and in-house movements from a high-end boutique maker for less than $3K is unheard of for a new watch, even if it's an older version of a current model.

All the best.
