Hi, this is my first post on RWI as well but just wanted to let everyone know how my first purchase with JTime went.

So I was interested in a Cartier Santos de Cartier 40mm SS 3KF 1:1 Best Edition White Dial Yellow Gold Bezel on SS Bracelet.
JTime didn't have it listed on their site but they had a Rose Gold one listed so I emailed Jtime directly asking if they can source one.

5/5/2022: Emailed JTime about the Cartier.

5/6/2022: Li responded that he can get one.

Since Li said he was able to get the Cartier, I figured why not also asked about getting an Omega - Aqua Terra 150M 38mm RG/SS White JHF A2836 Mod 8500 even though he didn't have anything similar on the site.

5/6/2022: Asked Li about finding the Omega AT.

5/7/2022: Li said it was possible and gave me a price.
5/7/2022: Told Li I would take both and an Omega watch box and papers since this was going to be a gift.

5/8/2022: Li gave me the payment breakdown.
5/8/2022: Told Li I would do an international bank wire so he gave me a 5% discount.
5/8/2022: Li gave me his info for the bank wire.

5/9/2022: Issued the bank wire via my Chase App. The processing fee was $40 which was basically the 5% discount, haha.
5/9/2022: Li confirmed payment and asked for my shipping details. He said Lana would send me the QC in 7 - 10 days.

5/13/2022: QC for the Cartier Santos came.

5/14/2022: Approved the Cartier QC.

Then nothing...

They did say 7 - 10 days so I waited.

Based off all the positive reviews from everyone here I stayed positive.

5/19/2022: After 10 days from when Li said I would get the QC, I emailed Lana and Li about the QC for Omega Aqua Terra.
5/19/2022: Li told me the factory handling the JH Omega was unavailable since they factory was slow on production. Li offered me a refund or I can look into getting a different watch.

5/20/2022: I asked about the Aqua Terra 150M Master Chronometers VSF 1:1 Best Edition Deep Blue Dial Silver Hand on SS Bracelet.
5/20/2022: Li confirmed it was in his own stock so they could process it quickly.
5/20/2022: Asked Li to send me the QC.

5/21/2022: Li asked me to pay the difference via PayPal FF.

5/22/2022: Made payment via PayPal with an $8 processing fee.

5/23/2022: Received QC from Lana.
5/23/2022: I liked what I saw in the QC pics but I asked for a lume pic of the watch and a pic of the watch head on while laying flat on a table.

5/24/2022: I got the new pics from Lana and approved the QC of the Omega.
5/24/2022: Lana confirmed my shipping address details and let me know that they will need 3 - 5 days for their shipping agent to process the order and provide the tracking number.


So far so good. I know based on everyone's reviews, I'm in good hands.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

I will post the watches when I get them. I am hoping to have it in time for my Wedding in the beginning of July.

5/26/2022: I was provided the shipping details.

As I’ve seen in other posts, the tracking won’t work till it’s in the US.

Anyone on here know how long it takes to get to the NYC area?
