    After the bad review they reached out and found the items they forgot to ship and sent over almost everything. One item they said was a typo on their end. 3 stars now--I appreciate that they made it almost right. I don't appreciate that they called and texted me every day for weeks trying to get me to take my review down or change my review when I already told them I was on vacation. All in all, they turned a bad experience into something relatively positive.

    My latest purchase. Was way better than I expected and always wanted a Heuer.

    I've bought several watches from Nick and Steve over the years and always come away pleased. Their selection of rare and unusual pieces always has me perusing their website daily. Pricing is very competitive to other dealers and guys in my watch club are shocked at some of the prices I've gotten. They even accepted a return after it just wasn't what I wanted. Love the location too...very convenient for me and a beautiful spot to drive to.

    Omega Speedmaster Professional

    I recently purchased a white Speedmaster Professional from OC Watch Guy and had a very positive experience overall. Nick and Steve were both great to work with -- professional, responsive, and easy to deal with throughout the process. The shop itself is nice and located in a good area, and they have a strong selection. Their website is well done, and they've clearly built a solid reputation across Yelp, Google, eBay, and Reddit, which helped give me confidence going into the transaction. They don't have the absolute lowest prices you'll find online, but that's to be expected with a local brick-and-mortar shop. That said, if you're willing to negotiate, you might be able to get to the top of the fair market range on WatchCharts, which I think is completely reasonable given the in-person experience, service, and peace of mind. I also traded in my Grand Seiko, and after some negotiation they gave me the trade value I was looking for and came to a fair price on the Speedmaster. The process felt transparent and professional. The only real downside is the payment fees. I missed this initially and ended up paying a percentage for using a debit/credit card. For a luxury watch shop, this feels a bit like nickel-and-diming. High-end clients often use cards, and in my opinion that should be treated as a cost of doing business rather than passed directly to the customer. Overall, I'd still absolutely do business with them again if they have another watch at the right price, and I'd recommend them to anyone looking for a reputable local dealer -- just make sure you're clear on payment method and fees upfront.

    Hands down the best place for watch enthusiasts! I've been coming to OC Watch Guy for over five years, and every single experience has been top-notch. From the very beginning, they've made me feel like part of the family. I usually work with Steve, who's incredibly helpful, responsive, and always gets me the best deals--whether I'm buying or selling. Even when they're busy, they somehow always make time for me, and that kind of service is hard to find. I've done multiple transactions here over the years and have no plans of going anywhere else. Highly recommend!

    Steve at OCWatchGuy is outstanding. He made my entire purchase experience seamless and stress-free. At no point did I feel rushed or pressured. Although the watch I originally wanted had just sold, Steve tracked down the exact same model for me in less than 24 hours. I'll definitely be returning to them for all my future watch needs.

    These guys are Excellent! I was looking for a ulysse Nardin 18kt and they had it for a great price. I was a little skeptical to purchase it from them being that I never did any business with them before but that was quickly resolved after a few conversations with Nick. They sent me several pictures of the watch and a detailed description which was dead on. Once they received payment they shipped the watch right away. They even gave me a nice travel case for my watch. I will buy from them again and I would encourage anyone of my friends or family looking for a watch to use them.
