We will see but@jasonvdwaars98 has agreed to drop the watch to@martijn as long as that is ok with him. Hopefully that will be the end of it. Sent from me -

Ok guys so looks like it did turn out to be a scam and the watches were never posted. Trader was@jasonvdwaars98 also known as jvdw98 on repgeek and other Dutch forums. He has been brigged on RWI and his full personal details will be posted here soon for everyone. We live and learn. In a way I am glad it was me and not someone who would just have to suck it up.

Thanks and yes it seems to be in extremely good hands. Good story though isn't it;) -
Ok guys I am going to share an ongoing trade I have and would appreciate some advice and some insight from those that have had similar experiences. On the 23/07/2018 I was PM’d by another member on RWI, he is also a member in here, although says he doesn’t have an account here and I won’t be mentioning any names, just yet. Anyway the member wishes to do a trade with an AP ROO Elephant fully modded and basically new that I had up for sale or trade on here and RWI. He offered up 2 Pateks, 1 aquanaut and 1 nautilus as well as another AP all standard reps. I agreed and we swapped Mobile numbers to conclude the deal over WhatsApp where we swapped addresses and I asked him to comment on the thread he see the watch for sale in so there was a record of the trade. Over the next few days we continued to chat about watches, wants etc whilst awaiting each other’s parcels. 26/07/2018 in the morning I checked the tracking of the parcel I had sent to him to see how it was doing and it was out for delivery that day so I messaged him to make sure he knew. I had given him a screenshot of the full tracking details on the 24th and box as well as attached his number to the parcel so he would receive a text message on the day of delivery, however I still felt it courteous to let him know. Later that day in the 26th trader messages me to say he had received the parcel was extremely happy and he sent me a screen shot (pic attached) of some postage details with my postcode on, no tracking number just the trader stating his parcel should be with me Monday or Tuesday the next week. Again we continued to exchange messages over the coming days and on the 30/07/2018 I enquiries as to how the parcel was doing as I didn’t have the tracking code to check myself. Trader replied he wasn’t currently at home and he would update me later on. Late that night I hadn’t heard from him so messaged again and received the same screenshot as above and trader stating it should be with me that week. I then asked for the tracking number myself to which he immediately sent one. I then checked Royal Mail tracking, no trace, so I try postNL, no trace so I then tried a few different multi tracking sites all no trace. Immediately messaged trader who sent a screenshot back saying in transit (pic attached) however again there was no tracking code attached to this neither was my address and he stated that if it wasn’t with me by Friday that week he would call them. 31/07/2018. Check the tracking code again still no trace and by now I am feeling this isn’t quite right so messaged trader again and he said he would call them that day. Evening time comes and still not heard from the trader so messaged him again and he sends me a picture of a smashed up car stating he had been in a car accident and will call them tomorrow now. 01/08/2018 I messaged trader as I hadn’t heard back from him and apparently he had literally just got off the phone to them and they was going to call him back later. 02/08/2018 trader messaged me that postNL had called him and the parcel would leave the NL in 2 days and should be with me next week it only needs to go through customs then it will leave the NL. 03/08/2018 trader messaged me again to say that he received another call from postNL the parcel has been recalled by customs and is under investigation, asking me why to do. To which my reply was I have no clue I have never heard of this happening like this. 04/08/2018 trader says he spoke to his friend who advised him that is best to ignore all contact from postNL and 4/5 times they just send the parcel. 14/08/2018 I asked the trader for a copy of the receipt with the tracking number displayed to which he replied he no longer had it. Apparently he left it in the car he apparently smashed up and no longer had access to it. From here I spoke with a couple of moderators who have since helped het a postNL investigation underway that was supposed to be finished yesterday but the trader said they need more time they haven’t finished yet. I personally called postNL where the employee told me they have no trace of the tracking number and that once in the system it cannot be removed by anyone so in his opinion it was never in the system despite the trader sending me screenshots with my postcode but no tracking code attached. I would appreciate anyone’s thoughts and especially similar experiences. Many thanks in advance Champsy Pics removed temp as they displayed personal info of the trader. Sent from me

Have a look over the forum buddy and you will see@legend modded AP’s all over. He is undoubtedly your man for the job to which I can vouch. I have had 2 works of art from him myself, one modded ceramic diver of which will probably never get sold and a rep of the grey themes to which I have the gen so wanted to compare the rep after his work and his work is amazing, truly. If it wasn’t for the thickness which wasn’t really noticeable on the wrist it would of been extremely hard to tell. If your going to wear an AP rep please have it modded [emoji120] Sent from me

Champsy replied to Legend's topic in General Discussion
AP Diver. Ceramic in my case and I do not even have the latest version, however it is highly modded and on the wrist it would take an amazing expert's eye to spot it wasn't a gen if even then it could be spotted. Absolutely stunning watch I would of certainly considered a gen of in the future before finding RWG and obtaining a modded rep version. Think that deserves a thank you RWG for both saving me a fortune but also keeping me happy at the same time. -

Champsy replied to Mike on a bike's topic in General Discussion
Buddy if you want to expect 0 problems your best bet is to buy a genuine and probably stick another 0 on the £600++ Maybe then you may get 0 problems however genuine watches do get problems also so I think your expectations are a little high for a rep. Good luck anyway Sent from me -

No I don't think it does. Take @Legend advice or get a gen one. Makes all the difference on the wrist as well.

Oh that’s painful but it could of been worse at least the watch itself is fine and didn’t drop to the floor and break or lose it swimming. Like you say the heat and humidity has been bad and could of done that to a gen one tbh. I switched out to the bracelet in this heat, learnt my lesson lol Sent from me
