You must do your homework before you buy any vintage watch from anyone.

My real experience:
1. Must go to the shop to see the watch physically. The website photos are so blur.
2. The movement model can even change when you see it physically (different from the website photos).
3. Your homework is utmost important when case no.2 happen. I normally will ask the "real" reason. But you own source of homework information will determine the authentication.
4. If you have doubt, just ask them to close back the case back , stop the purchase , and check with shifu or information again.

One is good condition but I was not fast enough. When I got there someone has placed a cheque and booked it.

2 are the condition not that good and not up to my expectations.

The one that I bought was that I acted quick and the watch condition is nice.

No issues, like someone said, ask if it's a redial but other than that no probs.

He will declare the spec of the watch to customers, but u may ask thoroughly before committing to any purchase.

Need to WhatsApp him first for the watch you wanted because some good deal watch is easily sold out and his website is not updated soon enough.
