I am considering ordering a watch from Chazing Time and have read previous customer order times on here to see how long orders take to be delivered. The times below is what I've found and would like to know if these times are normal.

It seems like it can often take a few weeks just to get the QC photos, which seems very slow.

  • Payment confirmation: 2–3 days
  • QC photos received: 2–18 days later
  • Tracking number received: 3–4 days later
  • Delivered: 3–12 days later

From time of order to delivery: 10–37 days

Hi and welcome to RWI! Glad you found your way here.

Those times can be normal, but there's always exceptions depending on availability. TDs don't control factory production. Sometimes you can wait much more if the watch is very requested and there's a long queue of orders. The same can happen with less coveted models. Put in a police raid and the factory having to lie low or relocate its warehouse and the wait can be even more. But the opposite can happen too. Sometimes you receive QC within a day and shipment within a week.

Please take some time to read the sticky threads in the new members area (all subsections), learn the basic forum rules and get some very good advice in the process. A number of questions has already been answered there, this is just an example:


As a new subscriber, you've already been directed to this thread, please read carefully and look through the linked additional threads:


Another good thread to read to understand where RWI comes from and some fundamentals is this:


Most of the information you need to know to start is there. If you're preparing to buy, read the stickies before ordering. When you're finished, you can continue learning by reading the stickies in all remaining sections. If it's stickied, it's important information.

If you intend to sell, read the sales rules and all stickies in the sales section with particular care and make sure you understand each single rule. Sales rules infraction is taken very seriously here. As a new member you are not eligible to sell. Using the sales section is a privilege, eligibility must be earned, make sure you know and understand how.

For anything else, feel free to reach out to @eBoy or me, we're happy to assist, advise, direct, explain. Don't hesitate.

Don't be afraid to post noob questions in the new members area. In doubt, use the flame free zone. If you feel uncomfortable anywhere in the new members area, please reach out to @eBoy or me. Mutual respect is of utmost importance to us. On the other hand, we're grown-ups and are supposed to be able to deal with a bit of irony, don't take it personally, ever, a bit of irony never harmed anyone. If you laugh at jokes, you'll make friends faster.

This forum is a treasure trove of information and benefits from the engagement of all members who take their time to share their knowledge, help each other out and have some fun. We hope that you'll benefit and enjoy this platform as well as contribute positively to it.

If at any point you feel to contribute also on another level, feel free to pm the boss (trailboss99) to become a supporter and get some little perks with the status (editing rights, for example).

Enjoy the forum.

Yes that seems about normal. Sometimes it takes longer, other times it takes less time.
There is no definitive answer to this.

Keep in mind that the Qingming Festival is going on in China right now also. That's probably going to slow things down some more.

It all depends on the order. The VSF watches take a long time from the order until the delivery. I ordered a VSF on March 1 and I'm still waiting for the QC pictures. I am guessing 2+ months, or longer. This is my second order. My first order went incredibly smoothly. The above timeline is accurate for a lower-quality watch.

Hi, have you received your VSF item yet? I have ordered Yacht master grey dial through ChazingTime over a month ago (4/1), still no update on QC.

Not yet, unfortunately. Alice, Chazing Time, replied back indicating the watch makers for the VSF's are laying low due to police raids. Communications have been slow. I am a full 2 months in now without QC pictures. I

Hi, FYI. I have just received my QC today. Things seem to be coming back to normal now. Hopefully you will receive your QC soon
