I met and worked with Monica Moc a few weeks ago. I expressed interest in a number of full gold Rolex models and Monica was able to make it happen within days. While I am an avid collector, this was my first time in the store, as I recently openned an office nearby. Perfect experience and I look forward to working with Monica for years to come.

Actually could not have been happier with my experience with the 1916 company. They are true professionals in every single way.! my advisor was Phil and he was great from start to finish. When buying preowned, I feel it’s mandatory to deal with the company that stands by his product and has a great reputation. Definitely will be back for more.

A True Champagne Experience! ​I recently visited The 1916 Company to pick up a very special push gift for my wife, Christy, to celebrate our new daughter. From the moment we walked in, the team provided a flawless "champagne experience" that made the occasion feel incredibly momentous. ​The level of service and attention to detail was outstanding. The staff took their time expertly sizing the watch to ensure a perfect fit. They were incredibly patient, walking us through all the warranty details and explaining the nuances and small scaling of the Lady-Datejust. Purchasing this first Rolex for my wife was an unforgettable milestone thanks to their dedication and warmth. ​I am currently patiently waiting for my own timepiece, but for the first time in my watch journey, collecting actually feels like an obtainable goal. I have never experienced this level of genuine care, transparency, and approachability at any other Rolex AD. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to start or grow their collection.

I walked into the new 1916 Company shop in Manhattan Beach about a month ago to inquire about getting a new factory bracelet for my Rolex. The staff was unbelievably helpful and friendly and was able to accommodate me immediately. Very pleased with my transaction, thank you again and look forward to purchasing my next watch with you all!

I bought an oris Aquis cal 400 in used very good condition. Upon arrival it presented as new. In addition, the ad said the watch had the majority of its warranty left. When I registered the watch at Oris I discovered it had never been registered before and I received the entire 10 year warranty. Extremely pleased

I purchased a JLC Reverso on July 8. On July 12, the strap broke. The staff always very helpful on the purchase. Francis was very responsive when I notified her. I am hopeful that there is a positive step from here. Presently I feel disappointed.
