Watch Rapport?
Has anybody dealt with watchrapport.com? If so how was your experience I am looking to buy a watch but not sure if I should take the chance.

Just make sure to look your watch deep in the eyes to ramp up the rapport a bit

Can we actually take this topic seriously for once?

I would suggest building some rapport with the “Who’s Who section“ in this very forum, where you’ll Find comments about this seller

I guess there is not much experience dealing with this seller (which seems to be more like a Chrono 24 website than an individual seller). |

I'm paraphrasing a bit, but that's how I remember it. And here we are. Seems like everyone is holding their cards awfully close to the vest on these Watch Rapport folks... |

Their online prices are 20 to 30% below market. For example, I am purchasing a 216570 polar. All legitimate sellers including the amazing boutique sellers on this forum, sell this watch for around $11,000. Watch Rapport? $8000, $9000. Perhaps they just found an old stash of thousands of these watches and can undercut the rest of the market by 30% Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Pass.
Looks like nothing more than a glorified aggregator site. |

They are nothing more than glorified watch brokers. The site reposts other peoples listings, and claims it as their own. I presume they are marking up watches trying to make a quick buck without having to have skin in the game.

Interested in this as well..
Curious if anyone on here has purchased a watch from that site. Prices are very below market value. Im seeing 15500's listed for $34K. Still way above retail but current market is pricing these at $40k and up. |

As mentioned above:
They are nothing more than a listing aggregator, and don't actually possess any of the watches they advertise. All of their "inventory" is simply watches that are listed elsewhere, by other sellers/dealers/platforms, that you could probably find on your own with a little searching. They also appear to use old/outdated listings (with old/outdated pricing), which I am guessing they do on purpose as a form of bait. Again: Pass. |
