“Eduardo at 1916 in Fashion Island was a breath of fresh air. Truly a watch fan at his core and someone I thoroughly enjoyed talking to and learning from. Talked to him for hours about not just the details and history of different watches and watch brands but about our hobbies and beyond. He's a true gentleman and a man that cares about my business and shares my passion for watches. He showed me the value of the Certified Pre-Owned program (loved that example of 4 different watches that failed the CPO program when they were sent to Geneva for 4 different reasons) and I look forward to many more decades of buying watches from Eduardo at 1916. These watches will stay in my family forever and be passed down to my two sons so I very much value the story that comes along with acquiring the time piece as I try to buy them around momentus occasions in my life. Thank you Eduardo and 1916 for being best in class and true professionals.”

“The 1916 Company (Ardmore, PA) has been a terrific experience, and we’ll undoubtedly return often for more watches and jewelry—our whole family feels the same. The showroom is spacious and welcoming, with an impressive selection of new and pre-owned pieces. In particular, our client advisor, Joe Ni, has been outstanding: responsive, effective, affable, and a true joy to work with. He takes a genuine interest in his clients and consistently makes every visit feel special and memorable. Highly recommended.”

“I had originally met Connor Fallon a fwe months ago regarding purchasing a new Rolex watch. We struck up a great conversation, got to know eachother, and he understood my interests on watches and many other things. He followed up with me in the weeks after my visist, just casually. Always being up front with how long these watches could take to get and the process. After a few months I reached out with another watch I was interested in, from Tudor, and he let me know that watch could potentiallly be difficult to get as well, but would keep me in mind. A month later I got a call that he was able to secure a very similar Tudor watch if I wanted it. I accepted, and met up the next day to take delivery of the watch. All communication from Connor was amazing, the customer service was on point, and the whole transaction was seamless. I look forward to building a relationship with Connor and 1916 for many years to come.”

“The 1916 Company is outstanding. My wife tried on several Rolex models, and we then moved into the main store to browse the pre-owned selection. I mentioned that I’d been looking for a Z-Blue Milgauss, and when Freddy asked if he could help, he immediately let me know they had one available and could get it within a few days. I picked it up and absolutely love both the watch and my experience with The 1916 Company.”
