I am new member to these forums. After reading the content of this amazing site for the past 2 weeks, I took the plunge and ordered my first replica online. Reading the buyer reviews really helped me to have confidence that Sead can be trusted and this is not a scam.

I have bought some replica's many years ago in Egypt, they were typically around £60 each, but all failed within a year or suffered from fading, so they all ended up in the bin. I really wanted a quality replica, and I have been amazed at the wealth of info on this site to help with the decision.

Decided on a simple design for my first quality replica, figured less can go wrong !

In terms of Sead, the transaction has gone like this....

25th December - Emailed Sead to enquire about watch from his Uk stock list.
25th December - Sead emailed some QC pics, looks good from my untrained eye.
26th December - Emailed Said to confirm I am interested and asked how to proceed.
26th December - Saed replied with 2 options Bitcoin or TransferWise.
26th December - I confirmed I will pay through TransferWise.
26th December - Sead sent me the account details to make payment.
27th December - I paid the $449 through transfer wise using apple pay ! I noticed a cash fee of £8.69 was also processed onto the credit card. Hopefully this doesn't hit my credit score ? I also emailed Sead a copy of the transfer document to confirm my shipping details.
28th December - Sead replied with a simple "Thank You", hopefully that means the watch will be sent to myself soon, as both the watch and myself are in the UK.

So far, so good. All speedily done. I do feel a little nervous about transferring money to someone I don't know, but all the positive experiences on here is keeping my stress level down :)

I will update as things progress, so others starting out like myself can have the confidence to go ahead.

Let me end with a big thank you to all those who have put information into these forums, it is an amazing achievement from everyone to make this website so informative and easy to understand.

Cheers

Hi,

Just a quick update. I am really pleased with the service received from Sead, if anyone has any doubts as to wether he is trustworthy or not, don't worry !

To update on the final schedule of events...

3rd January - Emailed Sead to ask on progress.
3rd January - Sead replied with Royal Mail tracking code - Item posted by special delivery on 31st December, slow shipment from Royal Mail because of New Year holidays.
4th January - Watch arrived today, love it, love it, love it !!!!!!

The watch came extremely well packaged, there is no way any transit damage could occur. The watch was also covered in plastic to protect all surfaces, and is in perfect condition.

I am a complete noobie, but very happy with the quality and the purchase. I will be buying another watch from Sead, now just have to decide what's next :)

I will upload pictures, once I figure out how to do this, presumably I have to upload them first to a web server first.

Rest assured, this is not a scam, high quality produce from a genuine trusted dealer.

Cheers

Bingo, think I have figured out how to post pictures.

I am sure people will be able to point out the flaws, I am happy with this, as I am just beginning on this journey....
