Thanks for this. I’m talking to geektime via WhatsApp. This would be my first purchase so I’m nervous to say the least. I have no buyers protection they will only do bank wire or PayPal friends and family. Is this normal how did you pay?

I was extremely lucky and used Wise (Wire?), the international money transfer service, before it was heavily regulated.

I think you'll be totally fine, even though Geektime isn't an official TD here, he still got a good reputation outside this forum.

We have 21 different trusted dealers that can find you anything you want, they're TDs for an obvious reason... why gamble with a non-TD?

I can only speak from myself: I was curious about the rep market in general, therefore ordered three watches from three different factories and three different TD's. Wanted to try Geektime as TD since he seems to have a good reputation outside this forum (yes the shithole that is Reptime )

I purchased my first rep from Geektime and it's having some issues with the movement after only 6 days not really sure what to do haha

Ouch, that's a shame. Have you contacted Geektime and how was the response?

Out of interest, may I ask which watch with which movement it was?

BPF 41mm DJ Wimbledon was around 308 USD

I am going to be bringing it to a watchmaker this weekend to see what the problems are and contact GeekTime after.

So should be a2824 movement, definitely interested to know what the fault is, would be cool if you post it here if you have had it at the watchmaker.
