Seller has been banned until this can be worked out.
OP I suggest that you reverse your payment.

Yes and thank you friends. I’ve filed a dispute case with my bank.

He had 2 posted watches for sale on this forum recent past. I sent him a PM about one watch....inquired about condition, service history and any other information. He sent me additional photos and more about how he came to own the watch. I sent him a new offer price & included my phone # so he could call for a chat.
He did call me twice but his line was very crackly; had a high pitch humming sound and we could not communicate. I became concerned and just walked away. He did not try contacting me again. I did capture his phone number...PM me if you would like.
Hopefully you get your money back.

He's been persistently trying to sell me the sub and I am getting suspect feelings off him. And I keep asking about condition, and he replies with just that he has a 3 day inspection. If the buyer here already sent payment, he is still representing as if he still has this watch ready to sell.. Seems sus.

I banned that account from TRF several days ago, how are you in contact with him?
A word to the wise, stop contacting him.

I have contacted local authorities and filed police report.
My bank has been advised of the fraud along with the police report and are
investigating the case.
