Sorry about the quality of the photos

Took it with phone while holding baby on the other hand :(

So...... i ve been wanting a mont blanc timewalker for a while now not becausr of the branf but because of the design.

Id been searching for a decent looking metal watch for a while and gave up when i stumbled upon a post regarding 7753 TWs.

And here at replica watch info i found a second hand tw for sale and contacted the person.

Pm at first but i found out his email address and phone number myself(the power of internet lol)

Anyhow...he asked for a price of 200nzd and when asked about condition of the watch he obly mentioned the chrono at 3 being wobbly.

He sent me photos and no prob when i saw them.

So i paid him and received it by courier today.

Opened up the package and straight away found the imperfections hahaha

I guess i got what i paid for :(

maybe a watchmaker can remove the dust and the glue smudge(perhaps should talk to the seller and maybe split the cost a bit) ? not too sure about issue 1

For 200NZD that doesn't seem to bad to my eyes... there are always imperfections when you enter the wonderful world of reps ;)

If you're really not happy contact him before you do anything else and see what he has to say.

I found more imperfections,a total of 9, and the seller decided to refund $50. I liked the watch and told him to refund whatever amount he wanted.
