You can view his last posts for a more clear picture. Unfortunately, Storm and another member had a pissing contest and it got out of hand with vulgar and racist remarks. The bans are temporary AFAIK.

I stand corrected. Shame what occured as I liked Storm, but what transpired was ridiculous to say the least. I felt 2nd hand embarrassment just reading it.
It seems they have done nothing with the 5 star ones (flagged by myself and I assume a number of fellow members) which is very disappointing but not surprising.
If there was a way to rate their bs platform they would get null points.

I received a customer service survey the other day so within the survey I tore them as best I could for the presence of those shill reviews. I even took the time to point out that descriptions in the reviews were all from single review users and for products that were not listed as available on the website such as other high-end models like Rolex. Suffice to say any lingering thoughts I had towards their legitimacy have now been permanently dismantled.
Have you considered involving the police? I mean regardless of where you discussed the watch, that sum of money is enough for them to get involved and since it's a custom watch it's not illegal for you to buy it with no stated replica pieces. Only supposedly genuine parts and modified pieces.
The legality of the item shouldn't even be an issue. It's not like we're talking of something highly illegal like a pound of Cocaine or something similar....
And if the watch in question doesn't even technically fall into the counterfeit category, then getting authorities involved shouldn't even be question.
Personally, I would first file a criminal complaint with a local prosecutorial authority and once I have a case number/code etc. I would file a complaint at the suspected or last known place of the perp's residence, because I wouldn't want to wait until my local authorities do that for me in 6 or 8 months or so...
9 Grand is serious enough to warrant police involvement IMHO.

I don't know how the British legal / law enforcement system works, but where I live (within the EU), it is possible to bypass the police and report felonies & crimes, or suspicion of one, directly to the district prosecutor's office. Of course, investigations will ultimately be delegated back to the police, but it is a good way to avoid the uninterested & unengaged police force (even though technically they are required by law to investigate every single complaint — it's not their "choice" or call whether a suspected crime is "worth" being investigated, but in reality they will often try to "talk you out of it" just to save the paperwork or make you wait for hours at the station to discourage you from pressing charges and hope you just give up and disappear). So maybe that could be an alternative?

My way of dealing with cops who don't want to do their job is to tell them that I will take it up with the minister, via registered letter as well as Twitter and Facebook all CC'd to the opposition spokesman/women and ask them how happy they think he/she will be about the adverse publicity as you are sure the opposition person will be thrilled but disappointed.
After all, your case is 1000s of pounds and there is good evidence that there have been others.

Exactly. There's enough reason to believe that this is just the tip of the ice berg. Which also means that there might be the chance of recovering at least part of the money as this a-hole probably accumulated a lot of serious assets already as opposed to the occasional amateur teenage scammer who'll already have unrecoverably spent your 300 bucks on video games, OnlyFans and sneakers on promotion at Walmart/Tesco etc.
But you'll never know if you don't report this and claim the damages.
My God, 9 grand... I'd be so annoyingly over the authorities like the biggest 'I need to speak to the manager'-Karen in the world, they'd have assigned me a personal, 24/7-reachable case handler at Scotland Yard already, just to silence me! Lol
As I used to say..
If it doesnt work with force, it will work with a greater force.

First rule of brute force: if it’s not working, you’re not using enough of it.

And if that doesn't work, remember C4 fixes everything, broken or not.
I keep coming back here hoping for a happy ending
