NYC's Trusted Luxury Watch Store

My experience purchasing a Patek Philippe 5396R-011 from Reference in Time was exceptional from beginning to end. Every aspect of the transaction was handled through text messaging, and the communication was outstanding. They responded promptly to every question, were incredibly patient as I carefully considered my options, and never made me feel pressured. The watch arrived exactly as described, complete with its original box, papers, and packaging, and it exceeded my expectations. The 5396R-011 is absolutely stunning, and it was clear that great care had been taken throughout the entire process. Purchasing a luxury timepiece remotely requires a great deal of trust, and Reference in Time earned mine every step of the way. I would not hesitate to purchase from them again and recommend them without reservation to anyone looking for a first-class buying experience.

All my questions were quickly answered before purchase. The packaging was very good and it arrived safely the next day. The condition of the watch is excellent and running good so far...and it was even set to my time zone. Nicely done.

I recently purchased a wristwatch from Reference in Time. I was able to contact them easily and we agreed on a very fair price. After I paid, the watch was shipped immediately and I received it the very next day in perfect condition - exactly as described. The entire process was seamless. These guys are excellent and I can recommend them without reservation.

After 20 years of buying watches off the “block” I found Penn and Reference. I made the trip in and was amazed by the shop and his enthusiasm in ensuring I received the best product for my budget. He absolutely made a new client for life. I encourage all to start dealing with Penn if you want the cleanest shopping experience. And shout out to Tyler and the rest of staff. Lance from Jersey

Just had an end to end PERFECT experience with RIT and Tyler. I purchased a very high end time piece and could not be happier with outcome, customer service, and overall pricing. Highly suggest.

Hands down one of the best luxury watch dealer in nyc
