Good point. I was also worried about that but I think these are just actual examples and not "studio quality stocks". I've gotten a set of quality control pictures for all our 5 watches before they were shipped. My GMT 2 had a specific flaw that was fixed. The pictures i got are also different from the ones the other user posted in the GMT 2 thread. The Patek 24 has a slightly misaligned Roman 12 and in hindsight that was visible on my QC pictures.Ive looked through many of trusty times qc pictures they have on their site and a lot of them dont correspond to the model, looking at some of the AP's the caseback and bezel number are different when you go to one that should only be a different colour but should be indentical in every other way. and scanning though others i see too many discrepancies.
I would pass on them if i was you, and use one of our TD's

For me the biggest reason was Andrew's responsiveness and use of PayPal. That means peace of mind and option to not pay for two weeks (he ships before payment, a considerable risk for him, probably the reason why they are slightly more expensive than on other sites).
Sorry. I sound like a fanboy but I'm trying to muster up courage for another multi watch purchase.

and.. he ships before payment!!!? why on earth does he do that??
The anonymity and security is why PayPal was such a success and was acquired by EBay (that's why Peter Thiel has the funds to sue Gawker into bankruptcy...).PayPal holds the money. They payment has a payment ID so he sees that the payment is pending or whatever you want to call it. I don't think that this 14 days money back thing is specific to my PayPal account type. I'd be very reluctant to give out any banking information or credit card information to foreign businesses (diamond uncles from Africa-emails come to mind...).

I've purchased watches from Andrew over the years with no complications. However, you are such an obvious shill. Take a hike.Andrew is definitely the most honest and sincere dealer I have ever purchased from. Everything is exactly what he says it is... and if you could prove him wrong he will send he always do the right with any thing. By the way I' d rather PAY a little more than get screwed. Your the man Andrew. Example. I wore this watch ROLGMT105A - YG/YG 2008 GMT Black Swiss 2836 one time and crown broke. With no hesitation Andrew is sending me a new clasp but guess what people he is that why I will never leave this guy
Try searching for cartel and learn the story behind it. Then come back here and explain your joke.I'm new to this website but it seems like the RWI genre don't like Andrew or Trustytime. Tick tock, tick tock..get off my block. Slinging reps ain't no joke lol.
I already read it man, I wasn't making a joke. I was making a statement.pTry searching for cartel and learn the story behind it. Then come back here and explain your joke.
I don´t understand the statement then. It´s in the constitution of RWI to protect the members from those who seek unjustified profit. TT and PC fall into that category with their past dealings. Members are free to deal with them, but on their own account, and without the security provided by RWI modsI already read it man, I wasn't making a joke. I was making a statement.pp

He may be generous, but he's not the sharpest knife in the box - you broke the crown, so he sent you a clasp...
