What Customers Are Saying

  • Lester D. Chapel Hill, NC

    I came across their site after seeing a Paul Newman Daytona on Uncrate. I’ve been looking ever since and I must say their prices are very very good.

    Once I found what I was looking for, I emailed them and Scott was very prompt to respond. Payment and shipping was seamless.

  • Adam K. New York, NY

    Buying vintage is all about buying the seller. In this case, HQ Milton is the best in the game when it comes to Rolex.

    Amazing customer service. Straight shooters. Watch was perfectly described. Thanks guys! Couldn’t be any happier.

  • Robert E. Wilmington, NC

    Overall, this was a truly fantastic experience buying a vintage watch. I was very happy with the advice and and my purchase in the end. HQ Milton has earned their reputation and my experience lived up to expectations.

    Before I purchased the watch of interest I scoured the Internet and could not find a comparable price for what I purchased. I’ll be back.
