He store is an authorized dealer for Audemars Piguet, Ulysse Nardin, Hublot, Chopard, Dewitt, Graham London, and more. Walking around the store, Arya pulled some hard to find pieces, and we got a first hand look.

The next piece Arya brought out was another Audemars Piguet. It was a pocket watch, and is definitely a very limited piece, as it was the first time I got to see it. It was a Perpetual Calendar pocket watch.
