Trevor vs. Puretime for Rolex

[rzackon]

Looking to buy three Rolex's for gifts. I have listed them below.
Been having pleasant conversation with both trevor and Puretime, does anyone have a preference? Id like to stay CONUS as I am in CA, but I haven't heard back from Stan as to whether or not he can get them.

This is my first Rep purchase.

Thanks

This watch needs to have the blue / red bezel

I think you will find PureTime is more expensive, and the delivery cost more.

I have used Trevor once and found the experience a bit mysterious, and the watch unfortuantely ran 15 mins fast a day when I got it.

In contrast my first ever purchase with Puretime was just web based and I got the watch no problem - the second which was a bit rare - a VCO overseas - and there was a long gap between money and getting the QC pics and I sent some Emails, some of which were unanswered. Got the watch in the end and it was fine.

So its a question of luck unfortunately.

You actually had a response back from Trevor? I am less than thrilled with his response. No actually its pathetic. Puretime replied everytime. I will pay more that's fine I will buy from puretime.

Both are great Trusted Dealer. :cheers:
Maybe sometimes , slow in responding or dispatching.
But you can't absolutely say which of the 2 is the best.
This is my personal opinion.

Personal experience: Puretime is more customer caring than Cartel in borderline cases. Unfortunately the word spreads and therefore Puretime got a bit overwhelmed with customer requests pre xmas.

Cartel is a reable Dealer in other Forum. Nice Vintage Rolly.
I know many users that buy from Cartel the Vintage Rolex like base for modding.

True and I have bought from them but in the unlikely event of something going seriously wrong you would have to be a memeber of the other fora to get mod assistance.

I got my first rep from Puretime, communication was satisfactory, but now ordering another rep I've had no reply to same question asked 3 times, ordered the watch from TB after having the same question answered within hours. I've also had other questions go unanswered by PT, I'm happy with the watch I recd from PT but I feel I can't depend on them to respond to some questions

I'd buy from Trevor.. Send him puretime's links and he'll probably beat their price and deliver the same watch.

I've ordered half a dozen watches from trevor.. never a single issue.

Have you considered Toro?

 

[Debellum]

Have you considered Toro?

Toro has excellent Rolly..........
But it is "specialized" in Panerai.
For Rolly I would purchase them from Angus or Trevor.
Both the models are identical.
You just have to choose which one.

Trever has responded to every single e mail I have sent him!
He has the same watches that everybody else has at least 40% difference
So I would go trever! If you dont see it on his site. Copy past a pic in a e mail
And would say he would source it! I know trever is a little slow responding some time but he has always has got back in touch. It's the nature of the GAME! My friends!! Peace out Mates!

Trevor is usually cheaper and will ship free if you buy two or more watches.

My first Sub was from Trevor, second Sub as well, third SOSF also from Trevor.

To answer OP's question, both will deliver identical watches as they are manufactured from the same factory.

But for me, Trevor never disappoints, great prices and flexible! He always comes through and recently has been stepping up his game in customer service!
