Hello from Maryland, USA!
Been wanting to purchase for quite a while and tried a few times but was having issues with my credit card not going through. After reading good reviews on here about him I decided he was my guylol. He is really great at responding to emails and helping with issues and finally hooked me up with PayPal as a payment method. So I was finally able to make the payment successfully using that method.
My order, the Omega Planet Ocean Titanium 43.5 Orange/Grey. Super 3xcited for this and can't wait to receive it. Hoping to receive it by Christmas but idk if it'll get here that fast. Either way, so far so good. The payment issues I received were only due to the cards I personally have that I was trying to use, however in the end we were able to figure it out. So now I'm just waiting confirmation. I will definitely keep this thread updated on my purchase and hope to be buying more in the near future.
Thanks for a great site with awesome info that really helped lead me to my first quality rep. I have several reps but all are old and hideous lol. Nothing like we have today. Can't wait!

QC photos approved! They ctually came in yesterday but we're in my spam folder as I have tight settings and they came from a different email, but the watch looks awesome so now just waiting on shipping status.

Congrats on your purchase,
where does Ryan ship from?
I believe it's coming from the factory or from China maybe? Not certain though. But I approved all the QC pics and it's shipping now. With the holidays just about here I'm guess it'll get to me after New years. He did quote me about 2 weeks to USA and I believe it'll do 2 different legs for that, I think it said to UK first then from there to me. He's been great to work with though and kept me informed and is very responsive to emails. I know he doesn't make the watches but still highly recommend based on reviews and my own personal experience here

That's good and pretty much what we should expect from any TD. It's very reassuring and helps easing our mind, even if TDs do not control de production or may not have updates from the factories, when they keep up us in the loop. And 2 weeks isn't much considering this time of the year.

I might go with Ryan for some next purchase. It's good to have options

Pls don't forget to share your taughts on the watch when you receive it!

For anyone interested in the timeline for my order, I was actually a day late on the approving the QC pics as they came from a different email address and were in my junk folder, but I have it saved now for future orders lol.

My watch arrived right on time today as scheduled once tracking updated when it made it into the US. Very happy and it was definitely a great buy. I'll be going back to Ryan for sure real soon for my next one! Total time from 0urchase to delivery was 14 days and that's with Christmas right in the middle of that so you know deliveries were busy and it still came fast! Here are some pics of it straight out of the package. Thanks to all the info on this site that helped me find the right seller and best way to go about purchasing a rep and what to watch out for, who makes the best rep by brands, etc... really appreciate all the help from the people who contribute to keeping this site running. Thanks!

Hard to see the inside of the back case and writing on the rotor under my bright light in above pics and my camera not the greatest so it kinda washes it out with the reflections but it looks nice. Here's a few more though. Titanium clasp also now instead of stainless like others before it. So a genuine set of straps and this thing is super legit! If I can ever find them.... But hope all this helps the next guy and I would highly recommend contacting Ryan if you're interested.

How was paying via credit card? I’ve been looking to buy, but have been hesitant to do it this way, i.e. shady fees, decline of payment, etc.. It seems like the quickest/easiest way though.

Also, watch looks absolutely killer by the way! What factory was this Omega from?

I wanted to pay via credit card. They have a fake online store that you use to pay. Unfortunately Revolut gave a a visa for single use payments and they only process Mastercards.
So I had to go the BTC route which went fine. (Could’ve also used PayPal but I’ve already put money into Revolut)
Just making sure : never use your regular credit card.
