HI all
just thought id post a thread about rep friendly watch smith ,and the experience ive had so far, from day one meeting up with xxxxxx who is a rwi rwg homage and wrist check forum member that is offering this service working with watch-smith , has been
very accommodating to all my request with excellent communication ,day to day update on the progress on my watch and very reasonable priced !!

The watch was giving in for poor power reserve and time keeping and waterproofed

Sec@12 ap i was given the good and bad news .. the watch was in a bad way

I was offered 2 option after the work was carried out full service and power re-severe testing
take it back as it was at reduced price .
or a new moment serviced and regulated so ive opted for the later
so will post update when i receive it back

If anyone else is interested getting there watch serviced and repair work carried out please contact

EMAIL REMOVED-TB99 who also is rwi rwg homage forum member

The member in question is banned here, RWG, repgeek and may well be banned at HF as well.

The admin team strongly recommends that this guy is NOT used as he is a middle man only and that always ends in tears. We also know nothing of the 'smith or his ability to either work on or obtain parts for Chinese movements.

RWI has several good trusted watchmakers in the EU including Wiz in France just over the channel.

How strange that you post this as your first post just minutes after joining. If I find out that you are this asshat I am going to make your life a fecking misery pal and believe me, I can!

+1 on Wiz, Domi, Katt, LFH, Victor and G.

They are watchsmithes, not middlemen pretending to be so.

oh really .. i was not aware of that at all of the bans... I do not need to be in cahoots with him or anyone else mater of fact !! I only post it for all other rep watch fans in the UK , that we might be able to get our watches fixed here .. and if you read my post ..as stated that i will report back on .. everything once the watch is back !! soon need to attack me for posting this thread !! i'm also a member on rwg rwgcc and repgeek . so you can see i've also posted my experiences there to with countless other post your more then welcome to look !!
I have nothing to gain from this what so ever , only passing on what i deemed useful to other member's

asshat ???

I wish I'd got here earlier before it was censored.

Surely not the guy with the cake?

Oh yes, and a big +1 to Wiz and Domi.

Just came on the AP section to post about the new carbon diver and saw this.

I can confirm zorro is certainly not me.

Z - Sorry mate, should have said I'm not flavour of the month over here.

Not banned at RWG or HF, but they're not endorsing my services either. To clarify to anyone reading this, RWI does not endorse my services.

Sorry about this Trailboss, he's not intending any harm. I have his Gold AP RubberClad - he's genuine customer.

I have met Zorro here in London and have seen his many excellent posts on the other forums, I believe him to be a stand-up guy. Don't think he's trying to con anyone.

Been pretty busy this past month or so bud so not too many new ones. Although I did get a special offer Graham from Toro... :)

Have my eye on a Silver Themes and maybe a special order RG (like your Montauk but with a Safari dial). Oh, and also all the new pams... It never ends!

Will drop you a text when I'm back to the big city and we can grab another coffee.

I get a nasty smell here.

I'll be happy if I'm proved wrong and will be the first to apologise, but this shit stinks.

No, you were posting your experiences with Exton and herein lies the problem. If the 'smith himself was here all would be good.

Some people have an entire forum of members to protect. You have just joined here, you have 14 posts and were praising a service we forbade. Just doing my job. If I have a choice betwixt not offending one member or keeping the other 40,000 safe guess which way I'm gunna jump each and every time?

There are certain rules we all adhere to here. Promoting non-trusted watchsmiths is not one of them. Inviting friends to jump to your defence is also not advised.

Again, if I've got this wrong I will apologise.

I'll vouch for Zorro...

I doubt he was aware of any wrongdoing by posting this, but now that he knows, it's a fair bet it won't happen again...

Z, the hundred you're paying me for posting this, you'll pay that by gift, right...? :p
