My apologies to Jtimewatch...I did not mean to spread "false info" against your reputation...I DID mean to speak negatively of the scammers who represented themselves as YOU but in fact were simply out to scam the likes of me. Enough said...YOU are a reputable firm and hopefully I will do business with the real YOU in the future.
Stand-up response right here. Well done and kudos to you. It sucks to get scammed. I'm dealing with that right now. kicking myself too.

First purchase went well. Second one too. Third purchase did not. QC pics were not approved and asked to replace for another watch and seems like they came back with the same watch that had misaligned date. Then opted for another watch model that stopped working after less than a year and no waranty or repair. So stuck with a non working watch.

I will reach out to them to see what can be done and hopefully work something out.

How exactly is it Jtimes fault that your watch stopped working less than a year? They don't make them, they just risk their lives to get them for you. They shouldn't help you for badmouthing them like that then trying to change it and be all nice about it. Something tells me they arent the problem here.

You realize that this would be equivalent to blaming your local car dealer that the new car you purchased a year ago broke down after being driven daily. Nothing about this is the dealer's fault.

A new car that was made by a illegal bootleg production plant by underpaid workers with no safety standards lol

Like I said before. Some people just aren't cut for the replica game. Just spend your money on a Seiko or Tissot and you can get warranty guarantees and excellent service.

Trolls get a life
Not sure if you're calling anybody who disagrees with you a troll because you refuse to accept the nature of replicas but I'll spell it out for you so you can't be ignorant anymore

First, you confuse the "dealer" with the "factory". Does your local car "dealer" make the Toyota on the parking lot?

Second, Your replica watch looks nice but it's a chinese toy made in subpar factory conditions by underpaid workers who don't give a f****. This is a tiny mechanical movement with small parts. You can get lucky and a nice watch that can last 5 years or one that can blow up in 5 weeks.

Third, Dealers ensure watch is sent out working but how can they know what will happen in 6 months? How do you wear your watch? To ask them for 6 month warranty is crazy and no replica dealer will give you any warranty on a watch for 6 months.

Fourth, if you want to play the replica game long term, go find a watch maker in your local area or in your country you can ship it to. Once you get one broken watches are just a blip.

Truth hurt you that much?

Apparently, you dont know what a troll is either. That figures since you cant even operate a watch more than 6 months.

If only there was a way to get it back working again. Maybe if we set up a system whereby people could attend classes to learn how to repair non-running watches - they could then earn a living from repairing those watches.
We could call them 'Watchrepairerers'.

I get it’s a gamble. So no TD is better than the other. And buying from a TD is the same as buying from Ali? Seems like advocating for the TD is a sport in this thread. Wonder who benefits from this? So anyone that relies on a TD for a fair play is just ignorant? Now that is just plain stupidity. I guess your money is not hard earned or you simply have nothing better to do with your time. God forbid anyone from having a bad experience with your fave TD and telling about it.

Yep, go to buy your reps in Ali, it is the best for imbeciles who can't distinguish TDs from factories.

Parts are made in batches. If an entire batch of date wheels have misaligned numbers then every watch made using one of those date wheels will have misaligned dates. If a batch of dials have misaligned feet then every watch made using one of those dials will have alignement issues.

Then opted for another watch model that stopped working after less than a year and no waranty or repair.

It ran for almost a year without issues and can be repaired. Much the same as a real watch made by a real company, a company with a website, a marketing department, a QC department, R&D department etc..

Wonder who benefits from this?

Nobody on this forum if that is what you are insinuating.

You can't blame a TD for a watch only running for 10 months then stopping. As for his guarantee/warranty on the items the dealers sell, their T&C's lay out very clearly what the do and don't offer.
Most manufacturers of genuine watches will only offer a 1 year warranty, and will often refuse to honor that warranty if there is water damage to the inside of the watch or any other damage caused by the owner.
