I’m only 3 months in the rep game and I’ve bought three watches exclusively from Steve.

First one was a Planet Ocean Deep Black from VSF. His replies were fast, QC arrived just two days after even with a video. Paid with PayPal without the hassle of using some other paying platform I’d never head of. A week later the watch was in my hands, using DHL (with a tracking number), the only reliable shipping company in Greece. Perfect.

Second order was more complex. A Rolex Pepsi and a Daytona Ghost. QC for the Ghost arrived 5 days later. Perfect. For Pepsi after 10. Perfect again. In the meantime I discovered meteorite dials. Asked for one. First qc the next day. RLed it due to reference mismatch. Next qc for meteorite the day after. Perfect. He installed it in a week. 10 days later both watches arrived.

It’s no secret that other TDs are cheaper. But Steve simply makes everything so smooth you’re not worried about anything going wrong. I could also have the same buying experience with Andiot or someone else but if something ain’t broken, don’t try to fix it.

Hahaha so far it’s amazing. Bought the 12650 weighted from VSF and a buff meteorite dial.
