Have you asked him to remove back case cover to check if movement is actually 1:1 cloned VS3235 and matched serial number on movement and watch? Have tested the movement to actually have 70hrs power reserve? Would like to hear your feedback on that please

@g00n Do you want to respond to the questions above with your fine knowledge.

So I will let @Feefo @eBoy and @BMW760 respond to the question above

Shouldn’t @jjjnyc respond to my questions since he is the end user of the watch?

why dafuk he would do that???

Cause there are plenty of cheaters out there in the replica market. I got cheated by one of the suppliers where I ordered a GMT Pepsi with DD3285 and paid $600 for the watch. When I received it, it only had 43 hours power reserve so I had to take it to a watch smith and found that it has the old version of VR3186 but engraved with a fake 3285 engraving. Luckily, I bought it through Alibaba so I was able to get a refund of $250 through their trade assurance policy without me having to return the watch.

I am still waiting for one of your colleagues’ scientific response though

Give it time, we are all on different time zones coupled with the fact that we are all trying to solve world hunger as well as cure all disease at the same time…..

That wasn't a good idea was it. You ask for a Rolex GMT with the DD3285 movement from one of the TD's here and that is what you will receive. And you are free to look elsewhere on the internet to find better service or prices since it is your decision and money.

Not always the case. Below are some horrible experiences with a trusted TD on RWI!

For every one person who has had a bad experience there are hundreds with great and some might say amazing experiences. And this is why you do the research and pick the TD you feel would give you the best experience. It is all about knowledge and patience.

If you don’t feel comfortable purchasing from a TD then try M2M…..

It actually was a good idea to trade on Alibaba. I’d rather do that since they have strict rules on protecting customers rights. In my case, I was able to get a partial refund in my watch but it probably won’t be the case if I traded directly with a dealer, even if he was a TD. It is still risky as if things went wrong, no one on earth would guarantee your money back or at least reaching an acceptable resolution.

I don’t know anything about Alibaba but I have a few first hand experiences with TDs, all of which were successful although some patience is required Like I suggested above, maybe the M2M route is better for you…..
