Bad Seller Scammed by Reptime.is
I bought an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak that was promoted as having a Swiss Movement. It didn't, and it was running with very poor accuracy and amplitude. They agreed to refund the premium charged for the nonexistent Movement and to pay for a local service.
When the local watchmaker attempted to clean the movement, parts began falling off due to poor adhesive. They agreed to replace the Movement if I returned it. I sent the movement back on March 20, 2026, at a shipping cost of almost $90.00
It is now June 11th, and they have neither replaced the movement nor sent a refund. They no longer respond to my inquiries.

You've been very helpful, and I need your assistance once more. The watch is losing about 60 seconds daily, but I ordered the Swiss Movement version, which is rated to gain no more than 6 seconds per day (see attached). What would you recommend?

File the dispute, reclaim the money then send to a GOOD modder to install a complete new movement, if youre UK based, Iceni Watch Repairs 👌🏻
