Like many others I put my first time trust in Andrew and bought my first rep. I messaged him to check if there was anything that could be a problem with that watch I wanted and he responded in 2(!!!!) minutes and told me how to proceed. Placed the order which he confirmed 2(!!!)min later again. Will keep this post updated as I go but so far so good!

Watch in question: https://trustytime.asia/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1_12&products_id=21040

30/08/20 - Order placed and confirmed

update 26/09/20

Noticed a flaw today in the AR coating on the inside of the crystal, looks like someone scratched it with a pair of twezers (spacing suggest this). It was not visable on any QC pictures and it's not visable in indoor lighting so I do not blame Andrew for not noticing it, nore the factory. Messaged Andrew about my concerns and he responded within hours letting me know he will get a replacement sourced from the factory. The great service from Andrew continues and he got a customer for life.

Wasn't planning on modding this one since it's my first ;) Got my eye set on a Pepsi GMT which I hope to be able to mod with a gen bezel.
