Happy friday everyone!!

This is my first post beside my introduction in the new member section so please let me know if I did anything wrong or this is not allow here so i can remove the post. I found this Tudor Blue Pelagos V6F V2 for sale and just wondering if you guys can point out any flaws for me that would be greatly appreciate it. Like I mention in the introduction post, I always have a thing for that beautiful blue dial on the pelagos because it is so vibrant and demand attention from your surrounding. The asking price is 315 shipped. Is it worth it to purchase it at this price or should I just wait for another used one that might be a bit cheaper. I just like to say I am currently a student studying pharmacy so my budget is not that high, and that is why I am looking inside the used section.

Thank you and have a great day guys!!

Hey man, welcome to the site. Typically, it is not allowed to post QC pics from a Trusted Dealer unless 1) you have a very, very specific question that you need a 2nd set of eyes for, OR 2) you have already accepted the watch.

You didn't note where this came from (and I cant open the pic for some reason), so I cant really tell you one way or the other. Generally speaking though, you need to remember these are cheap chinese fakes of $3000+ watches. They're going to have flaws...

The pictures you linked to are of a clearly used watch from a seller on Reddit. Something I'd consider a beater.

That being said, at TDs the watch is 358 and if you pay via WesternUnion/MoneyGram you get a 10 percent discount. So let's call it 350 shipped all in versus 315 for a clear beater watch. I'd spend the extra 35 and go through the entire rep experience from a TD. Let's say you have QC issues, at least you know it's all on you and it's your learning experience.

Pass on that watch. Buy new. The TD guarantees delivery and that watch works when you get it or they will repair it. I’m assuming the Reddit seller can’t guarantee those things. Do you know the maker of that watch?
