First time order of 8 watches

[yeshman]

Hi RWI,

I have relied upon the trust of RWI to engage in a first time 8 watch order with Andiot.

This post is to confirm that everything runs smoothly.

I have paid an inital deposit of 200usd

7 watches were QC'ed within 2 weeks with 1 Watch having to be RL'd

RL watch was QC'ed within a week and a half to which I gave a healthy GL.

All 8 watches have been GL'ed and the full amount was transfered via wise (and some through alipay as I had funds there).

I now await the shipping stage and some QC for some SW Dials for 5711 Naut and Aquanaut.

I am eager for the 8 watches and will repost the updates shortly.

Thank you RWI for this forum.

Impressive first order

Out of pure curiosity, is everything shipped together when ordering so many watches at once?

I wondered same thing

What a first order in terms of quantity and quality!!!

I would err towards individual deliveries of each watch to avoid the chance of losing the lot!

 

[BluJay]

I would also be interested in how many lots these are shipped. I consider to buy 2-3 watches at once but concern a bit safety/risks with shipping

Hi Jossé, yes it is quite a lot of watches isn't it? It is being shipped in packs of 2 watches. So in total, 4 shipments to be made. I think this will alert customs if any more than 2.

Should be covered under their customs protection. Will be sent in lots of 2. Will update everyone how this goes

Hi, are you able to share any updates on yours transaction?

 

[tkingjr]

I never ship more than one watch at a time. Over the years of buying many Reps, I have had three watches seized. Once your name is on Customs list you should ship under a different name. I use my brides name.

 

[aHero]

Most dealers ship up to 2-3 in a package.

You have chosen some beautiful pieces. I hope everything goes smoothly with the 8 watches

Man, you know how crazy it would be, to be able to safely receive all 8 watches in one order!?!?!?!!? If that was possible to do with no worries of customs, the sheer joy I would feel unwrapping EIGHT watches
Hope all goes well with your purchase, very exciting and impressive first order!

Impressive... I'd have gone with one properly modded PP rather than three stock ones (especially the Nautiluses) but the Rolex collection is a great example of “why choose... have them all!”

Hi Everyone, quick update. I ordered the SW dial set for the 5711 Nautilus and 5167A Aquanaut. During the dial exchange provided by Andiot's watchmaker the Nautilus has had a date change issue so it has been sent back to China for repair. I am told by Elliot that the shipping costs will be covered both ways and that it will be repaired in due time. All 8 watches came in one piece. The AP Royal Oak came with a scratch on the side but apart from that I am happy with how things went. I'll upload a photo of the 8 watches once the Nautilus is repaired.

In terms of how it was sent:

In 4 seperate shipments.

Each shipment contained 2 watches and were packed diligently and sealed.

Customs was a breeze.

Any questions let me know.

As a first time buyer I'll be transparent with you all to cover all areas as needed.

Cheers.

This joy was able to be achieved. It took time for me to update but things went smoothly in the end. One Nautilus came with a defect to which I am hoping will be resolved shortly.
