[greek_genesis]

Hey guys this is a new post for my first ever purchase of any replica watch, for my first time I chose CTime and our communication is flawless through WhatsApp.

So,

11/10/2023: Paid them in full
12/10/2023: My payment went through and Liana sent me a confirmation
13/10/2023: Liana sent me some QC photos and videos of my “Kermit” and told me that the CLEAN 116500 is not in stock but they will restock in 22/10/2023
23/10/2023: Got QC photos and videos of the “Panda” and a confirmation that the watches are currently on the way to my front door!

I will post some photos from the QC and of course keep you guys updated!

Ohhhh my friend, believe me! I’m in so much pain, the anticipation could kill me! We had a setback with the delivery and it’s going to take 1-2 days more!! Haha!!

It’s 20 days since I was told that my order is in transit but nothing yet. Is it common? I mean most of you guys are saying, you get your packages delivered in 10-14 days. Should I be worried? I mean CTime is clearly a TD, but you know I am starting to get a little bit nervous

TD doesnt magically control the speed of packages shipped. They can't make boats go faster. Seriously. Think about it logically. This is normal for shipping from China. It can be up to 1-2 months. Relax and have some tea.

If it gets lost or seized, TDs will ship you a watch again.

I get it's your first watch but relax. I've ordered over 25 watches, fastest was 10 days, I once waited 3 months. Patience is the name of the game.

So now you know for next time. Stop worrying. Global shipping is unknowable and TDs don't control it.

Enjoy your pieces.

Did the tracking ever actually update? My tracking hasn't updated in 10 days. Kinda thought I might get the watch before tracking updates.

I'm in the same boat as you ( waiting on a watch from Ctime).
My status hasn't changed in over a week and states "departed Shipping Partner facility " USPS is waiting for item with a Jamaica NY address. ( this can be alarming -especially to a newbie - ive been there )

Go to https://www.17track.net/en
Then Choose the Carrier LTEXP and/or Seashells tong - and the site will then tell you exactly where your package is on its journey in China - the USPS tracking number will only accurately track once they have in their possession .
More times than not - it will say Item arrived at a Chinese airport and waiting to be shipped - it can say this and be in this status until after it passes thru Chinese customs and only after it arrives in the states will the tracking status change.

Its ok to ask questions and its not silly to be concerned on timing when going thru the process while still learning the hobbv.

Good luck and reach out if I can help

Thanks. That is exactly what mine shows. The airport. Hopefully it will update in the states soon.

As it turns out - I had to wait for my ctime watch way longer than I should have .

• I ordered and paid Ctime on 11/19
• Label was created on 11/26 (with a BS Jamaica address) -arrived in the US 12/7 (ORD)
• arrived and departed "partner facility" from 12/12-12/19 (7 times in the US)
• 12/19 finally accepted by USPS but in NYC (why it ended up in NYC USPS when it originally landed in Chicago - and I live in LA/CA is beyond me)
• 12/22 finally accepted by USPS in Los Angeles.
• estimated arrival 12/26 (due to Sunday and Christmas holiday Monday )

When it arrives on Tuesday the 26th - will be a total of 38 Days to get my watch. (not to mention that it was supposed to be a Christmas present-thanks Ctime for sitting on it for a week before sending - express tracking for moving it 7 times to Nowhere before getting to USPS. ,and a special way to go USPS for their normal incompetence and for delivering my package to the other side of the country for no reason at all. (My Frustration is due to human incompetence)

And for all about to type that they have waited longer and one needs patience for this hobby - shave it - no one asked you.

So do you know how shipping works from China? Is this your first time? There's two legs of the journey, which is taken by two shipping companies.

The first company ships from China to the US. This is the partner company. They then hand it over to USPS to do shipping in the US.

This is why you saw a label created in NY Jamica the same time your package got shipped in China. The partner company entered it into their system and made a USPS shipping label, but it was still in China.

Tracking for packages is awful internationally. This is common. It's automatic. Did you use 17track or postalninja to track your packages?

Use your brain. CTime can't make boats, or postal workers work faster or travel faster. They're not god. Noobs think TDs can snap their fingers and make it so that everything goes your way.You want your instant gratification? Go walk into a grey matket dealer and pay 30k for your watch.

Pay rep prices, have rep expectations. Amazon and their shipping have ruined people's brains.

I know what you'll say. Why not use FedEx or DHL? You want fast shipping, sure, Fedex or DHL works. But enjoy the seizure. Fedex and DHL need to collect customs taxes and fees and almost always opens packages from China.

There are US based dealers (non trusted) too if you search around.

But your attitude fucking stinks. Is 1 month a long time? Yes. But it's not uncommon. I waited 2 months once for my package - and I didn't bitch about it like you. In fact, 90 days happens as well.
