I have no idea how Reddit vet their TDs but I doubt it is as vigorous as here. It can take years to get TD status. If we see any signs of trouble from a TD then they are removed and we actively try to get funds back. It does not always work but over the years very few have gone rogue thankfully.

That is a brief summary but usually it is an arduous process for all concerned.
The TSWatch thing was hilarious though…..

Careful what you say - he may take contract out on you.

Asseem trees of green,
Red roses too,

For me and you.
And I think to myself,
What a wonderful world.

Thanks.

Not true please check your facts in regards to me.

Thanks
- You've shown to incorrectly service movements that you overcharge for
- You liken yourself as a professional when you have a dirty, canal Street set up for "repairs" and plating
- You can't take criticism and have paper thin skin.
- You've shown your proverbial arse here repeatedly in the face of more reputable, professionals



Sod off back to Reddit where your bots can vouch for you.

Look I know I’ve made many mistakes in the past and wish I could take it back.. I’m fine with the truth and continue to practice my craft. I just have no relation with this Martin person and did go through the proper process on Repgeek.

Martin claimed to be a “TD” on another Reddit sub, not ReptimeOnline. That was my mistake.

It amazes me that some people expect bygones to be bygones when they don’t make the people whole again that they burned. Just saying

You mean you just paid to be a supporting vendor?
Isn't that how it works over there...probably no vetting process whatsoever.

Maybe I'm wrong.

You were also just banned over on reddit (RepTime) as well.....things seem to be going down hill.
Sorry....completely off topic!!

Not a watchmaker but pretty sure $75 is still a ripoff for what he's claiming to do.
(Noticed he's still doing tiered listings for servicing, which is dishonest and shady.)

Plus, how do you check for dryness without disassembling the movement? For that matter, even inspecting?

I'm not buying the whole "trying to be better" act, he was called out for the same behavior years ago.

Level 1 mini service. LOL. 100% scam, you pay $75 for nothing - he probably doesn't even unpack the watch, just ships it straight back to you.


Difficult to believe that 1 person can generate so much hate just from working on watches. There's complaints about the quality of the plating, some even claim he didn't do the plating work they paid him for. The few who defend him look like shills or (1) staff.

Lol I can't even:

"USA 🇺🇸 Stock- I have the largest USA inventory with all products going through pressure testing, regulating and rotor silencing."

By silencing, he means coating it in grease and you've already shown previously he has no idea how to use a pressure tester.

"Why trust a product made in a underground factory without a watchmaker looking at it first?"

My thoughts exactly, which is why I recommend using a watchmaker and not a charlatan who thinks the keyless can affect the amplitude.

"4. Industry Leader in Plating- I have the most experience in this hobby with over 10 years and constantly getting better in my craft with money invested in genuine watches to ensure consistency and quality."

Points of order: What industry is he referring to? And who decided that he's the leader? The sock puppets you use?

"Reasonable Prices- I try to keep pricing in line with TDs online with of course the added cost of services and express shipping watches over daily from HK. I diligently work to offer watches at different price points including stainless models that allow everyone to enjoy a watch."

Reasonable? $75 Dollars to glance at an assembled movement?! (Again, how can he possibly determine if something needs oil without disassembly?)
