Jimster Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 What a great walk down memory lane. I remember him calling me to see how I liked the Black Seal. A real Swiss mvt not one you had to guess on. Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeff g Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 Efren and Chinatown, great watches -100.00 bucks. THOSE were the good ol' days. I still wear the Seamaster 300 from Adam, and the unreal FM Casablanca from Efren. They both disappeared within a month of each other. I think it got a bit on the warm side back in NY in early 2005. Great guys, no [censored]. Sorely missed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkcambel Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 I miss both Eddie and TTK (formerly known as Time To Kill). Both were always entertaining. I bought from both of them. And never had a problem. I still regularly wear an Upstream I bought from TTK (an odd one on a leather strap) and a Pam I picked up from Eddie.

hank7502 Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 I bought a TT Navitimer from EL. It was a very good rep, but I was inexperienced and sold it. Someone was very lucky. EL only sold the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

littleme Posted February 4, 2009 Report Share Posted February 4, 2009 I don't post on here often as I tend to like reading from others.On this occasion I'd like to say that Eddie was a gent and funny with it, a GREAT dealer. I think you tend to remember your first deal and it was all very easy, friendly and he had the patience of a saint.(god he needed it) 5/6 of my first watches came from el. (It's all his fault I have spent a sh*t load of money and had words spoke with my wife.Where is the git I want a word with him) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slickdick Posted February 4, 2009 Report Share Posted February 4, 2009 My first pruchase from EL was the legendary Solid 18k FM. It was quite a remarkable purchase, two pm's where exchanged and the deal was made. After couple of days the watch arrived savely at my door. now the point of the story is; 1 or 2 days later i recieved pm from EL asking me to check if there is someting with the payment. So I called my bank to check whats going on, seems i made spelling mistake on the bank wire. Turns out, he shipped the item even berfore seeing a single penny (where talking 1600usd at that time). All ended well, i'm no scammer PP'd him same day. I'd say he was truly a class act on another level... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gillorin Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 wow kasi, demsey... blast from the past EL was the man... I bought a few watches from him many moons ago... and like Slick said one of them my payment wasn't even sent before I got my tracking number... didn't even ask for that- I asked him for the total on a TW Best Sub (he was famous for these) and I said I'd take it, signed off for the day... came back to a tracking number! Top shelf dealer and guy, with his Elvis motorcycle helmet, 'Ivana Trump effect' PAM AR coating (this was high tech in 2003!) and was definitely the dealer I had the most fun buying from... even if his prices were higher than the rest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
