How to choose between TD?

[clothbo]

Hi, I’m new here
looking to grab my first rep.
iwc mark xx

got 2 offer $398 and $250
both says the watch is from v7f
and both got a pretty good review in Reddit and here.

should I just go for the cheaper one?
thanks!

Are both seller's Trusted Dealers. I suspect the one selling for $250 is not. Spend a month or more reading before spending your money. You are buying illegal counterfit watches. This is not like buying on Amazon.

Hi and welcome to RWI!
Please take some time to read the sticky threads in the new members area (all subsections), there’s heaps of good info and the basic forum rules you should know before making your first steps here, plus a ton of good advice. For anything else, feel free to reach out to @eBoy or me, we’ll be happy to help.
Re your question, provided we’re talking about rwi TDs, check out their shipping and return policies and accepted payment methods. Then, before ordering, contact them to ask for availability. In that occasion you also may ask why the price difference and see what they answer.
Good luck

Bingo. There you have it ... That's, by the way, the number one reason for extreme price differences between seemingly identical watches. It's almost always the movement.

Given the amount of marked up junk/dollar store garbage you see on amazon nowadays I would tend to disagree. LOL

Also a newbie here! Make sure you check that they are TD's and the site/contact details actually match the ones that are listed on here.

Other than that, as long as you have done your research, I think it is down to going with the TD you feel more comfortable with.

I am impressed. A newbie that knows what to do and has done his homework. Next he will be a supporter after 2 posts.

Whoever created the treasure trove of information here on this forum deserve some kind of applause! Simply incredible!

Much appreciated!!

If you don't want to make an error on your first watch spend 4-6 weeks reading. The factories makes the watches, the TD's sell you the watch. All the factories make different levels of quality.

Truth!

All the big TDs here are well known and respected. Also important if something does go wrong as it inevitably will sometimes, you want the peace of mind
