GFS Monarch saddle?

I am in desperate need for an XXW jumping saddle for my Yellow dude who got too fat for his custom saddle. I found an GFS Monarch close contact, with XW and XXW gullets, but I have never heard of the brand. It is made in England and wool flocked. I would have to have it shipped, and can take on a trial, but was wondering if anyone has heard of them.

I like that it is adjustable/uses a gullet plate, as the horse is for sale, and that should make the saddle more resellable or able to be used by a lesson horse.

Looks like a legitimate established Engish Walsall company that makes medium price saddles that aren’t distributed in Canada as far as I know.

I found someone with a used one in Ontario for sale. Has the gullet plates I would need. Reading their website, their warranty would be void here because we don’t have any of their qualified fitters.

Well I’m assuming second hand it’s not going to be that pricey.

I have a GFS saddle, though not a Monarch (mine is a VSD Pro) and I’m very happy with it. It is well made and very comfortable.
