The Watch Thread - Part 16

[hwaa]

I think if pricing is something like $200-300 off, it is still possible.

But to halve the asking price, only fools will believe that it is authentic. Way too good to be true. If I can sell for $3.6K and people will still grab, why am I selling at $2,000? Put yourself in the shoes of the seller, and think if it makes sense. Why he's so nice to forego upwards of $1,600? Cos he is very nice and trying to gain karma? Even if authentic, something is fishy about the whole thing.

Also, why does he use chrono24 pictures in his listing?

thats why they still try cos there's actually some people that will take the bait in such amazing deals.

Ya, second hand still possible, I've seen some amazing deals on Carousell, assuming authentic. Those deals usually snatch up same day same hour though.

Yeah thats what I thought as well. But they have so many good reviews (swissengine_sg has 416 5 stars) with many buyers claiming their products are “authentic”. I don’t know if these “grey market” sellers really legit or not, considering that they don’t t offer the official 5 year omega warranty

Fake la.
100%. They will say is what factory reject etc.
Got alot of tag heuer seller say the same stuff.

If 3k legit. Why still there. Dealer swoop clean. Flip 4k. Earn 1k also song.
Pls don't be naive

Ok thank you so much guys. I think I have to go with my guts here. The price is too good to be true, so I wont deal with them. Maybe if they allow me to authenticate in swatch group then I will re-consider

doubt they will, u can give it a shot though. ask them deal at swatch group after circuit breaker then see what they say.

i roughly know they operate based on pre-orders, very little existing stocks. exchanged a few msgs with nickalice before in lazada.

My first watch (in black). Remember the days the strap would get smelly due to dirt and grime buildup over time.

No need use such tone. Most here are first time or amateur buyer looking for simpler friendly advice from the more experienced community. Just my 2c worth. No ill will intended. Tks.

thats just his style, blunt and straightforward but sometimes it helps.

nice strap boss!

It’s common sense le . Half price tag Heuer on Carousell or q10 ... and u really think it’s authentic. When did you ever heard of factory reject tag watches and hence selling cheaply ?
