  1. Never seen QC of a movement, so yes you ain't getting one. Welcome to the rep world.................. To expand do you think there are going to check every movement for each buy. Lower your expectations please or you will never be happy in the hobby, this is a buy of illegal goods for one tenth the price of gen from a guy hiding from authorities not a department store. Sorry to be so blunt but if you had read around looked at other QCs you would know this already.
  2. OK guys heard from seller and although I am not happy with anyone not using a box it was not a total bad job unfortunately I'm sure by the time Andy got what was left it sure looked like it. Why I read it tissue (around bracelet,watch ,under case back etc ) to keep from getting scratches then plastic wrap then regular envelope then into bubble shipping envelope. I will look into this further guys just give me some time at work now.
  3. Am i being too synical as I just re read the OP and he added the following: 'forgot to add... customs risks is on buyer, usual trading rules apply. i'm not responsible for careless mailman as well' I'm sure its just a coincidence........................ Andy that was there 3 pages before you bought it/ seller marked sold and I do not see you in thread at all ? (Guys always post PM sent before you do it gives me a time line when I investigate.) It was OPs like 2nd post in thread, I think he just forgot to put it in.
  4. Crap I put a leather strap/s in a box, as AJ can tell you. I am tempted to contact heads of all the boards to incorporate this into all our sales rules. Something like" If you ship a watch it must be in a box : Styrofoam or cardboard (no soft envelopes gents) or YOU are responsible for lose or breakage." By the way love those little styrofoam ones I get from China, .
  5. Andy had to get ride of one pic, had sellers name an address on it. I know was not your intent just for size purposes but had to go.
  6. AJ you posted there , I will go take a look. Naturally a big no no and just a plain stupid way to ship.
  7. Very nice I like it but where do you get the proper case back I wonder. http://www.vintage-db.com/articles/rolex-1665-quot-oman-quot-sea-dweller-1
  8. " Gerlach watches from Poland, Steinhart in Germany or Prometheus and Borealis watches from Portugal amongst many others." Ding ding ding , give the man a cigar ! Had just about all of those my Borealis was in the raffle all fine watches and so can an Invicta be a fine watch for the money if know which one to buy. Now cavi on the reps well one feels gen the other not so much , that is the way it goes keep one sell other I guess. On the hate they are perceived as the brand of uncultured, unknowledgeable watch collectors. Hey I have one bought long ago before I knew any better not that it is a huge ugly watch just can not wear an Invicta feel like a cheap whore now a Seiko at same price point yes , now you are a smart WIS.
  9. Thanks , like I need another. Oh if you want Pepsi on SKA: http://www.sports-watch-store.com/ska369p1/
  10. Hmm me thinks taking some let us say Rolex styling cues has caught our eye. Oh Ok used link for Bond well without using link seems I was on the right track. No wonder Nanuq likes it! SO I said to myself really like that maybe get a gen , not over 6 grand we need a rep!
  11. It's a mystery to us how they choose that is for sure, now I sort of like that one but the ones you posted nice also, go figure.
  12. Yes it is, really a great value at the price point.
  13. They make a real nice 40 mm auto diver like 200 meters . Bought one for a buddy of mine wearing three years no problems, he loves it go figure. Here it is like 78 usds http://www.amazon.com/Invicta-8928OB-Gold-Plated-Stainless-Automatic/dp/B000JQJS6M/ref=pd_sim_241_3/186-0071622-0652646?ie=UTF8&refRID=1M9MPF3R5P8E500HX19X Works , looks, holds up just fine, like I said go figure.
  14. cavi , under 100 no biggie it's a beater. The problem is it's an Invicta a brand that is hated and I mean hated on the boards. Try posting one of these next store for sale they will take you to the wood shed, just saw it happen poor guy.
  15. Man that f**ken dial, no it's the hands, no it's the insert, OK it's the whole watch ...................... in a forum of modders you are without a doubt one of the best.
  16. You and I just missed one for sale with a gen insert and crown !
