Hi and welcome to RWI! Glad you found your way here.

Don't worry, TD will come back to you in due time. Sometimes it's quick, sometimes you gotta wait, the nature of the game.

Please take some time to read the sticky threads in the new members area (all subsections), learn the basic forum rules and get some very good advice in the process. A number of questions has already been answered there, this is just an example:


As a new subscriber, you've already been directed to this thread, please read carefully and look through the linked additional threads:


Another good thread to read to understand where RWI comes from and some fundamentals is this:


Most of the information you need to know to start is there. If you're preparing to buy, read the stickies before ordering. When you're finished, you can continue learning by reading the stickies in all remaining sections. If it's stickied, it's important information.

If you intend to sell, read the sales rules and all stickies in the sales section with particular care and make sure you understand each single rule. Sales rules infraction is taken very seriously here. As a new member you are not eligible to sell. Using the sales section is a privilege, eligibility must be earned, make sure you know and understand how.

For anything else, feel free to reach out to @eBoy or me, we're happy to assist, advise, direct, explain. Don't hesitate.

Don't be afraid to post noob questions in the new members area. In doubt, use the flame free zone. If you feel uncomfortable anywhere in the new members area, please reach out to @eBoy or me. Mutual respect is of utmost importance to us. On the other hand, we're grown-ups and are supposed to be able to deal with a bit of irony, don't take it personally, ever, a bit of irony never harmed anyone. If you laugh at jokes, you'll make friends faster.

This forum is a treasure trove of information and benefits from the engagement of all members who take their time to share their knowledge, help each other out and have some fun. We hope that you'll benefit and enjoy this platform as well as contribute positively to it.

If at any point you feel to contribute also on another level, feel free to pm the boss (trailboss99) to become a supporter and get some little perks with the status (editing rights, for example).

Enjoy the forum.

Thanks.

I felt "uncomfortable" because they told me by email that I had to wait 1 week for the QC pics and didn't send. I'm worried because it is my first buy in the other side of the world from trusted dealer of yours. I think it's a common feeling. Expecially because I do not receive answer to my questions from ct. Maybe it's my fault but it's a consequence

I didn't say it's your fault. It's just a game of patience. Sourcing a watch can take long, many factors are at play. As long as you used a trusted dealer, you'll get your QC eventually. I don't know how you went about your order, but usually it's good practice to contact the TD beforehand and ask him if he can source the watch you're after and how long it may take. And even then, the timeframe he'll tell you are only indicative.

Don't sweat it.

This isn't Amazon. QC time varies WILDLY based on watch factory, watch model, and production cycles.

Sometimes you get lucky and order a VSF Sub the day a new batch was produced, so you get QC the next day.

Other times, you wait two and a half months for a Safari from JF, then the movement is dead, and you have to wait another two weeks.

Just learn some patience and enjoy the process.

Listen, nothing is unusual here. The TD will get back to you when he's got something new to tell you. You read the contributions above? Sometimes it takes months. You know the game, you just wait. That's the best line of action. Hassling the TD with multiple emails won't contribute to make it any better. You used a TD (by folowing RWI's link, right?) your money is safe.

Do that, don't sweat it. Waiting myself for QC feedback, I don't even ask them for feedback now, usually wait the 1 month mark to inquire if everything is ok, politely (without expecting immediate answer). As said, when there's news they will grab your attention.
