So I have taken the plunge and ordered 4 watches from Andrew at Trusty. Two Submariners, an Ulysse Nardin el Toro, and a Richard Mille. A bit of a gamble for a first dip in the water.

My bank rated it as 99.98% scam and refused to pay but after a fair amount of conversation they agreed (with me taking 100% of the risk). Paying Singapore dollars, which was nice as I used to live there for a few years so happy memories. I just hope it all goes smoothly and I receive a package within the next couple of week / few weeks / month / ???

I have ordered a number of watched from Andrew and never had a problem.
yep I chose him based on reviews mostly on here so am hoping all goes well - so far his communications have been clear and timely, so all good :)

Here are my 4. The Rolex white face is for sentimental reasons (this was the Kuala Lumpur market fake from early 1990s, bought for me by a friend when they were on holiday).

The others just all look good, to me at least.

A Hublot Spirit of Big Bang is next on my agenda, once I have these ones safely complete.

Although there is a lovely Jaeger reverso just out (advertised by Lenny Kravitz) should I ever manage to find it...

just seen QC pics for 3 of my watches. Looking good, just waiting on one more. Looking at the white face Rolex reminded me of when I had the same model 30 years back and a friend who knows watches asked me where I had got it as Rolex had not officially made a white faced Submariner. He thought it was genuine (I did confess it wasn't). Seems this one is a replica of a prototype from the 1960s as Rolex prototypes are typically white faced before they then produce the real ones, so I am getting a replica for which no genuine watch exists.

Which means it is genuine, and can't be a replica. Right?
