BROM Posted June 21, 2009 Report Share Posted June 21, 2009 I believe that happy_alexx asked a genuine question. The reason I say that is that, I thought that this forum was to keep us from buying form the wrong dealer and getting sccamed. So I believe the question is absolutely ok. I do not believe asking if someone is ok to deal with should call for reprimand from the members. My believe is that if someone would ask if I was trustworthy to do business with, I would not be offended or defensive by that question. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lwgt Posted June 21, 2009 Report Share Posted June 21, 2009 (edited) "As far as i can tell through some pretty damn intense reading of this forum, WM9s rolex reps, once gone through BK's QC and mods, are the best avaliable." Should one order through BK instead of directly from WM9's site? I understand, from the above mentioned comment obviously, that BK QC's the watches... this is opposed to WM9 who are shipping without QC? Would appreciate if someone can clarify this. Thanks! Anyone? Don't want to start a new thread regarding this as I'm not comfortable with being crucified I'm asking because I've read comments like: "Also will do some much needed QC on the WM9." , referring to BK.

Noel Fleischer Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 IMO BK is the best dealer here for Rolex. i happen to be wearing the YM from WM9/BK and i can say its one of the best reps i own (i also have 3 gen rollies) the finish and workmanship is truly exceptional. Bk is a real gentleman; rare in this business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomhorn Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 (edited) Anyone? Don't want to start a new thread regarding this as I'm not comfortable with being crucified I'm asking because I've read comments like: "Also will do some much needed QC on the WM9." , referring to BK. As I mentioned in my earlier post, I think BK is the best source for the WM9 products. There was a post I saw somewhere where he showed what he did to 'fix' a WM9 v2 Sub for another forum member that had gotten his directly from WM9. Mainly small things, but the end result was a better watch. Pricing is the same, so no reason not to go with BK. On another note, I think the initial post should not have been in the 'scammer' section (thanks to whoever moved it), and that's why the OP might have gotten some negative comments directed at him. If he wanted info on BK/WM9 he should have posted in the General Discussion, Rolex or BK's subforum instead. If the same post had shown up in one of those places, I think the reaction would have been more subdued. I think the general consenus from the experienced membership here (and on other forums) is that BK and WM9 are not scammers and are well respected producers of high quality reps. Granted, some of the responders could have been a little nicer about it, but they were ultimately just trying to support a couple of the good guys in our hobby.

happy_alexx Posted June 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 I know BK is still arownd... Any updates on wm9? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jkay Posted June 14, 2013 Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 BK came back from China to announce that "George" from the WM9 factory had died by crashing his Lamborghini, but the Factory was family-owned and would continue to some degree. TC then discovered the factory and sells the world-famous WM9 Yacht Master now. But no one calls it WM9 anymore .. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
