My 83 year old uncle who passed away last year used to hold his phone like that.... After he had two massive strokes. Gen Z kids are so weird! 😂

You're a clown, a 20-year-old with no future other than showing your cock on OF for money and yet you seem to think that's something to boast about.

t least I’m doing it for my social media your a fucking loser
I've seen your social media, I know who the loser is


Do you show your tits on OF ?
No, but he shows photoshopped dickpics on Twitter.

How can this clown think he has anything to be proud of? His parents must be so chuffed at how their son turned out. Sad, really, really sad human being.

my experience so far with hont watch (conversation starts a week after payment sent after no update so I asked for a QC). no response in over a week since offering my refund & has been holding my money for well over 30 days with little to no updates. I sent him btc so I’m unable to chargeback or contact my bank so it’s all on his end to process the refund. I’ve been very patient with him & tried not to annoy him but I’m so fed up now I just want my money back or some sort of response. this has been a terrible experience overall and I can see he is blatantly ignoring my messages as he’s responding to other people on RWI and is online currently while I’m writing this. I’ve been dealing with this for far to long now and I’m just very fed up. I’ve woken up everyday to check to see if he responded but nope just continual disappointment. hopefully this ends up getting resolved and I will continue to post updates on this for the next couple weeks to see if I truly was scammed or not. I mean one week already feels like more than enough time when if he wanted to send the money back he would have done it already. he’s been giving me the run around for so long now. be careful doing business. you can see I was giving him very simple short responses before I just eventually got fed up today and sent a longer more aggressive paragraph asking for my money back.
So
ty this was my first time ordering reps I saw somebody compare the customer support to Amazon under here and that is just a completely terrible comparison I’ve never dealt with customer service like this before and I definitely won’t be in the future. I see why I should have just bought the real watch in the first place saved me all the hassle and stress. maybe I just happened to purchase it at a really unfortunate time as well.
OK so i've read your posts and without being rude you have thrown your toys out of the pram .It is funny you should mention Amazon . You're a new member, and by your own admission new to reps thus just don't understand how this works . One thing this isn't is Amazon ! The new members see the Reddit discussions ,the professional websites , and imagine offices with a sales team , signed factories , stockrooms , DHL vans buzzing in and out all day . That isn't how this works , despite the improvement of rep watches , due to improved CNC/tooling , improved RD etc this is still an illicit, underground and illegal business. The dealers don't hold stock ( some a little) , they don't visit the factories directly , they don't have offices, or stock rooms . For many of them this isn't there only source of income , they may have other jobs , and work from home . When they receive your order they are aware of which watches are available , and will visit a watch market ( another dealer) to collect your watch . They may take your order though and find there is a delay in sourcing the watch . They will use third parties for payments paypal, WU ,crypto etc they will swap these out from time to time . They will be charged extra fees/poor conversion rates by their card providers who are aware of the nature of the business .They will use third parties to send parcels , maybe a legitimate company with a reason to send out parcels, or individuals who they will change to avoid uneccessary attention . There is no factory with CF on the side , or a massive office block with Puretime or Hont Watch full of staff .
In your case you were unlucky the watch you ordered was in production but not available , that's how it goes sometimes .The factory may have been waiting for gaskets, or crystals , dials etc to be made from a third party supplier . The factories you see on websites don't manufacture the whole watch , they are assembly lines . They are reliant on other other production facilities who will supply the constituent parts .The dealer doesn't know with 100% certainty he can get the watch immediately . If Hont can't get you the watch , then neither can another TD . Again they may have another job ( i don't deal with Hont ), have lots of customers chasing watches and orders to fulfill . Most are one man bands , and English won't be their first language . If the watch isn't available it becomes a waiting game .This was then exasperated by CNY ( you don't care about holidays ) this is a total 2 week shut down which means even fake watch factories aren't working . So the TD apologised for the watch not being available , and informed you that CNY meant it would be at least another 15-20 to days before he could get the watch and provide QC pics ( this is a guess) . Yet only eight days later you began requesting updates . You were just unlucky ! Sometimes you will order a watch , the dealer will source it immediately , you will get the QC pics the next day and have it in your hand within the week . Other times you need lots of patience , watches become unavailable , holidays happen, watches get stuck in customs , postal strikes happen , factories get raided by the police , bad weather strikes etc etc and it will take say 2-3 months to get your watch . If haven't got the patience to just relax and let the process take place , then you're correct this isn't for you .

This is a whole lot of text and splitting it into paragraphs might have made it easier to digest ;), but otherwise this is a good summary for noobs to better understand what they are dealing with imo. (y)

Lmfao 5k followers on reddit is a lot I just said Reddit because that’s where I’m assuming he gets a lot of his clients from. I’m an influencer and I have a big following on other platforms besides reddit hints why my reddit has 5k followers. I’m just happy this post pushed hont returned my money.

Sigh. The idiot's mother is always pregnant. This level of utter idiocy is so depressing.

Fortunately @eBoy cheered me up with Don Rickles. Loved his interplay with Donald Sutherland in Kelly's heroes.

I've learned a lot from this thread. If I get my 🍆out over the internet...I can maybe afford more reps. :LOL:

Serious question though as I'm still new. I've ordered from Hont and gave him me payment/GL on QC/ address. He's just replied "ok" a couple days ago. Is it normal to need wait a while before hearing back with tracking number?

It's normal, don't sweat it. Now all TDs have s*!tloads of work after cny and apart from that he may wait for a regular pickup from his post guy. Also after you get tracking, be very patient. It can last a lot and tracking may not give you any comfort for a long time, complete radio silence. Such is the rep game.
