Swiss-luxury.net - legit or not?
Browing the web and found this site...very good prices towards the bottom of the men's page:
http://www.swiss-luxury.net/mens.html So of course my inclination is yell scam...did a quick TRF search, but couldn't find anything (only swissluxury.com)... Don't see any contact numbers (just an email address) and no CC or paypal option... |

I've always been a big fan of buying from sites which accept Western Union MO's and don't list their physical address...
The lack of a phone number is a big plus. All in all, I'd feel real confident sending them $60,000 in cash based on internet pictures and their guarantee that their watches are authentic...that's good enuff for me!

OMG ............. I wouldn't touch them wearing a haz-mat suit. They have absolutely no contact info. Send me your money. I will at least send you the used scratch off lotto tickets I buy that aren't winners.

I think that there is a sticky about them in the watchout section. You can find lots of useful info there about the whos who of sellers.

Sounds like the Russian mafia is up to no good again. This reminds of me a scam web site that someone here tagged about a year ago.

All the photos on that site belong to eBay seller Generalwar, here is an example:
Large 44mm ROLEX YachtMaster II White Dial MSRP $33,650 Yet another scam site to add to the list, Great find!!!

Did you know that Generalwar aka SANT BLANC Swiss Watch & Timepiece Specialist Company and Watch_Chest in Branson, MO share the same building.

Thanks for heads up guys. Looked too good to be true, but pretty convincing.. till you look carefully and see that the text doesn't make sense
"All itemes and was bought from an authorised Rolex dealer...We give a 1-year guarantee on all our watches unless foregoing."??? Guess the old adage still rings true "You pay for get what you. (Unless foregoing)" |

Yes ! If you will saddle up your horse and meander over to Branson, MO, you can see his bricks and mortar building. He shares it along with another well known seller of gently owned Rolex watches. I wouldn't hesitate to buy from him at all.
