[dr_snuggles_123]

Hi guys,

Thanks for an amazing forum. Didn't know shit about reps 2 weeks ago, have been amazed by the rep market since.

14.04.2023 - Checked availability
14.04.2023 - Availability confirmed + confirmed QC within 24 hours (can that really be true?)
14.04.2023 - Payment initiated
<to be continued..>

I'll keep updating a super rookies first ever order..

Cheers!

Would you also mind sharing how much you paid? I'm in the market for the exact same watch and in between two TD's to go with.

Hont sells this for $498 included shipping I believe.

Irgendwelche QC-Fotos, die Sie mit uns teilen können?

A little on QC pics.

QC pics are to satisfy YOU that the watch is OK to YOUR standards, that there are no crooked indices, missing lume, offset chrono hands etc. QC pics are not for picking tells or things that are present in every example of a model such as spelling errors, happy feet, wrong lume colour etc. These...

I'm following this closely because I'm also looking to purchase my first rep soon so it's nice to know someone else also recently bought the same watch from Hont and found success

Same watch from same factory but not from Hont, I went with @CTime, great experience with them.

that’s great to know! Thanks for the input. Will for sure order from Hont again, but also curious about other TDs.

Actually ordered an Explorer I from Jtime yesterday, so far so good seems like all well-known TD’s are great to deal with

03.05.2023 - RECEIVED THE BLOODY WATCH Soo fun to see this piece live. It runs smoothly and looks great! The bracelet was a bit sluggish, but a few drops of baby oil solved that matter.

Really happy with the deal from start to finish, kudos to Hont!
