Hi all,
Recently bought this Ballon Bleu 33mm V6F with an automatic Seiko movement.
I reached out to Sead first off on 2nd July and asked for a 33mm Ballon Bleu and to see if he had stock in UK.
Sead replied the next day saying only in China.
After a few more emails back and forth, and without payment Sead sent me pics of the 33m quartz.
A few more days went by and we exchanged emails once a day. I decided on the V6F with Seiko.
I paid via PayPal on July 9th.
On 13th July Sead sent me QC pics - you can see them here https://imgur.com/gallery/NCEctAq
I pointed out to Sead the a screw in the caseback looked strange.
He told me it was just the photo.
I approved and on the 19th July Sead sent me tracking number.
Today - 23rd July. The watch was delivered to the UK.
Unfortunately - the screw in the caseback that i pointed out was almost out!
I emailed Sead and he responded right away. Sead said he screwed them in, so i've asked for a replacement screw which he will send.
I'm hoping it is the screw, and not the watch case. Time will tell.
So far, great service IMO. I am sure Sead will sort out the watch regardless of what ends up being wrong with it.
Here's some of my own photos...
