New member, can you advise me please?

Hello to you all.

I am in the market for a new/unworn 116613 or unworn 16613. I found these people in the US, certainly my preferred market to deal in as I have bought from Swiss Supply in Miami and was very happy with them:

http://www.olxwatches.com/

Does anyone have any experience of this company and do the prices strike you as too incredibly competitive?

Thanks for any advice you can offer. I am in the UK, by the way.

I don't know how you found this website as it is only three weeks old and not even ranking in google when searching for its own domain name ie "OLXWatches".....

It would be a shame to think that you are advertising the site as the website is hosted in Russia and is not in the USA.

If you are a serious buyer, my apologies and welcome to TRF, and please take Steve's advise......

Thanks, i am a genuine UK buyer.

I figured it was a scam.

Some poor people are going to get swindled. Horrible.

OK, can anyone give me a steer on this item and these sellers please:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...=STRK:MEWAX:IT

I think it is stunning. Vintage, but totally stunning. I would have thought it would go up to about £3k, sterling.

My other option is to pay full price for a new one, a loacl dealer is offering 12-36 months interest free credit too. I am thinking that will be a safe route!

Additionally, and apologies for sounding like a nutter, anyone know of:

http://www.jewelersontime.com/index....4f95e6faf164a7

Once again a polished website, but...are they for real?

OLXwatches smells much like Russian OC. Run the opposite direction if you value your money!
