First time watch buyer

[Hubertcumberdale]

Hey everyone!
I am new to the forum but have lurked around debating about buying a watch. Recently through the reddit page /reptime I found a site (geektime) and found a watch that looked really nice. I was debating between two watches, one that had a full description (Standard submariner VSF Super Clone 3235 with Automatic Movement) and a sea dweller that did not have any info but just the photos. Is this normal? Is there a certain model that's better than the other? And once purchased what steps will I be faced with?
Sorry for all the questions!
Best,

Hubert

Welcome aboard Hubert,

Firstly, to clear up any confusion, Geektime is not a TD, the T stands for Trusted, and is a list of vetted dealers, approved by RWI, with the full list below:

Trusted Rep Dealers

The websites & email addresses listed here are the only one to be used. Any other website found online or in a post other than from the dealer itself are not recommended Be careful, copycat websites are one of the most common scam out there and their addresses are very similar.

Am not saying to buy, not to buy, from Geektime, that's your decision, as at the end of the day it's your money, but if it were me I would go with one of our 24 TDs. Each TD has member reviews and I would recommend researching them before sending your hard earned money.

If Geektime is aying they can access a watch, the likelihood is that any of our TDs can too.

As for the steps, I would recommend reading the FAQs below (in addition to all the other stickied threads in the NewMembersArea) to help familiarise yourself with the process, it's not Amazon click and collect

Hey, it totally can get confusing with the different traders and the plethora of different options offered by each vendor. I personally use Eric - Geektime and have bought three watches from him and it has gone pretty well. On the topic of Submariner's, I have heard great things from VSF, but personally most of my Rolex watches are Clean Factory so I purchase Clean Factory from Geektime. There are pros and cons to each watch, but in my humble opinion, this Clean Sub is pretty outstanding. Hope I answered some of your questions!

Although it is NOT a trust dealer, I have bought from Geektime and the process was good. Took about 3-4 weeks to CONUS.
