Hey guys,

First a few words to the community. I feel super grateful for all the hard work from the members of the community to keep an amazing, easy to access source of information. If it hadn’t been for RWI, I wouldn’t had purchased a replica

So after some time really considering the different options, I opted to purchase the Rolex GMT Master II with CTime. I bought the Batman version from Clean factory with the DD3285 movement. Here, some ref dates:

17.10: first contact & payment
18.10: QC received (less than 24 hours since payment)
20.10: water tested, QC approved
07.11: received the watch at home & brought it to a local watch smith for service / inspection
Last week I was in a Rolex store testing the GMT and today when I received it, I was comparing the feeling. Overall, everything felt quite quite the same.

Overall, I want to really thank CTime’s customer service, they’ve been quite easy to deal with and very helpful. I’m already considering buying a second watch with them.

First a picture of the package - seems quite safe for the long trip



Here couple of pictures right after delivery



Will report if watch smith detects anything unusual

Great choice my friend! Thanks for the feedback and the post!
A quick question if you don’t mind, I am waiting my watch from CTime and it’s already in transit for 12 days but I can’t see the location from the tracking number, I can only see that it’s in transit. What is your experience from the whole delivery and waiting time? How long did it take for the package to arrive? Thanks in advance! Cheers!

In my case it took around 15 days I think. The link that ctime provided me never gave me updates, but then I used the tracking number on DHL's package tracking page and could see updates once the package cleared customs. If you're in a different region (I am in Spain) the final shipper might not be DHL, so I don't know how this might be reflected with other shippers. I expected it to be a bit faster but honestly they got the watch home within their delivery window (2-3 weeks), so I won't complain at all.

Seriously you saved me from a lot of anxiety, because i used the link CTime provided me too! And I just used DHL’s website! I can see where it is now!
Thanks my guy. Enjoy your watch brother! 😍
