Hi guys just wanna share with you this guy on Facebook in my country selling ridculous prices when I asked him how much was Pam312 and he told me 800+ in doubt I even asked why was his so expensive compared here. His reply was to ask me try and said all the TD's quality are like Bangkok night market standard which will spoil within a few days. What do you think?

here is his Facebook page : https://www.facebook.com/OneStopTimeZone

and a few screenshots of my conver later, check out the page and leave your comment here. Thanks guys. And I'm new here :)

Yes and I'm sure he's the only one in the world who sells Eta movements made in china specifically :rofl:. He's the dude who took apart the rolex clone and told everyone it was an Eta when it wasn't. We have 3 local dealers here in RWI, no idea why anyone local would consider that dude over the TDs here.

its the same BS all sellers use when selling reps, AAA, best version etc. who the heck ever proclaims it's a C grade rep upon purchase? Stick to TDs, I would ignore dudes like those, you can't really get rid of people like them ever.

buy from our TD, lots of online dealer/reseller overcharge their price for maximum profit one, with our TD if got problem got mods can help sia, those reseller sell you low grade one (with low grade movement ) you also won't know unless you open case and check

Doesn't apply to this particular dealer. Afaik, he sells stuff which our TD sells, just at inflated prices. End of the day, it's a rep, you can't go complaining to legal authorities for a rep. That's why we have TDs here

Lol!! I've notice his page popping out for quite some time as well. Not only does he resell at a higher price but the way he says about his rep is utter bullshit..

I dislike the way he describe the reps he sells and his voice!! Somehow I don't really like the sound of his voice maybe cause he's always repeating the same shit all over and over again on a 8 min video?

That's for those who doesn't know the trades and thus end up going to him.. so we can't blame them as people uses Facebook more than search on the forum more these days..

For all you may know he's a member or lurker here getting whole sale from the td's and re selling them at those prices. He most likely buys all 2813 or 21j movements. Doubt he even opens his casebacks

Yes. I ever asked one seller, his watches are AD walkable. Meaning can walk into AD. And price is damn high.

Ok, let's test this.. Some basics of a rolex

How is the printing of the wordings on the gmt/ sub?
Answer : they have a 3D looks to it on the gen and those newer version should have this too, it might be flat out need to see a pic of his watch to know if he knows his stuff

Date wheel overlay have different color on different versions of the sub/ gmt and should be centered

Under different lighting the bezel should have different shine to it.. The closest you can get is by platinum mod, else gen is far nicer and crisp..

Tbh these info can be found on rolex page itself or which ever brand/ watch you want to question him

Who cares. If he's not an outright scammer taking your money and not delivering anything, then he's just another reseller, buying reps from China at wholesale prices (which we can purchase at too) and selling it on again with a huge markup.

Not the first, and won't be the last dealer to do so.

Don't waste your time, just stick with the TDs and you'll be good
