With 7 yrs old Bergie's polo still looking like new. 

Received the nasty letter, Josh sent replacement out as soon as I showed him the letter, received today (not through DHL), worth the wait, great piece.

Replacement received from Josh, an amazing Aquaracer version, real happy with it, was worth the wait.

Anyone know how the new rep compares to the gen?

They took it down. 

new stuff.

Think it was just bad luck. Received the seizure letter and Josh is going to ship a replacement. 

Watches received, running & looking great, delay was due to Mid-Autumn festival.

On a GSD Marrone Antico, great straps.

Thinking maybe my luck has run out ordering dropshipped watches. I ordered 2 from Andrew, since customs has seized my Josh order, I asked him not to use DHL, gave him a different address, he used DHL anyway, asked several times for tracking, yet to provide me with tracking ,order paid for a week ago on 9/11

Not sure what is going on, in 2010 I ordered seven watches from TD's got them all to me from qc pics to receipt within a week.

DHL email updated me. Not sure why PC would put Watch as description for delivery. I'm pretty sure this one is gone.

Notification for shipment event group "Clearance delay" for 16 Sep 16.

takes a lickin....

What does it mean for you? 

I am not sure what you are asking. It was my purchase, I am out the watch and the $$.

Phone call from customs, they are checking the copyright of product, I guess they opened it because they knew it was a watch, was from Josh at PC. Will he try again to mail another?

I think the DHL Cincinatti hub is a problem, have bought many watches from Connie, no problems ever, this one I do not think I will see. 

Maybe it wasn't on behalf of Tourneau. Just his own money and he was showing off that he was a manager there and knew his stuff which he obviously didn't.  Definitely wasn't drunk. But I can't help thinking it would have ended up in their pre owned section.

Tourneau is owned by an investment bank.  Their sole plan is making money.  They hire unqualified staff and don't pay them well, hence turnover is high.  Staff is mostly not well educated.  Bes guess is the offer was not binding until the "watchmaker" looked at it.  Sales guy was looking for a commission,thats all

Deal was going to take place in bar. When was a "watchmaker" going to look at it?

Fishy story
The guy was drunk
Tourneau does not sell fakes obviously
And one salesman cannot buy a watch like that in a bar on behalf of the company .. does not work like that ..

I'm curious now. Do you know how the deal would have to take place for him to purchase on behalf of employer? Can he buy off eBay?

Does Tourneau sell fakes? I met a guy in a bar who liked my rep Tudor (recent release). He showed me his Tourneau biz card and offered me $1700 cash for it to which I declined. He definitely knew it was a rep. Setting me up? Moron? Not an  above board retailer? The AD employer thing made me nervous.
