Andiot woes

[Jazz4886]

I'm not sure if this is the right area for this question - or if I'm just being impatient and should just wait longer.

I placed an order for a Tudor BB58 watch on 5/15/25. QC received 5/19 and approved 5/21. I've since sent several messages about when the order will be shipped only to get some bizarre answers.

First on 5/26 I was told "let me chase"
Then on 5/27 I was told "having dust on the dial, waiting for being cleared" and was told would be shipped "today"
And finally today was told "let me check why that takes longer"

I'm just confused about the dust on the dial. There was none when I GL the order. Any suggestions here? What is a reasonable amount of time to wait post GL for shipment. I understand I'm not ordering from Amazon here but I've ordered several replica watches and usually shipment is within 3-5 days without bizarre explanations for why it hasn't been shipped yet.

Thank you for any and all advice

You have answered yourself.

If you used the contact information from here, I wouldn’t be too concerned. Unexpected situations can happen to any of us, that’s life sometimes.

Happened to me once with a watch that all the sudden developed a problem with the crystal. In that case I did have to cancel but there was another instance where a problem was caught before shipment and I waited and it was fixed and sent issue free Id say wait a while

Yes I used the correct info there. In fact - I've ordered from Andiot before and had no issues. But I've been reading on Reddit that there are somewhat not infrequent similar issues with this TD. I've used Steve at TheOneWatches several times without this issue. I guess you get what you pay for.

I guess I should just try and be a bit more patient

The last thing you should do is listen to what Reddit has to say

God save your soul…

Find yourself an exorcist — a real one. Have him purge your memory and pray over you. Then head to whatever place of worship you believe in and beg whatever higher power you trust to have mercy on you.
