Chrono24 first time user advice

Guys, not sure if I’m putting this in the correct spot but....

Looking at purchasing via chrono24 from a business seller, listed as member since 2014, 300+ trusted checkout sales and basically impeccable reviews. So seller seems legit

My question is regarding chrono24 trusted check out. Does this actually provide legitimate protection to me as a buyer? Is there any specific steps I should take in terms of paying to give max protection? Pay via credit card?

Appreciate the help

I’ve used C24 for one purchase before. I personally will always play with PayPal through my credit card. Started doing this years ago with golf club purchases, and have been protected on a few issues. I’m sure others who have used it more frequently can shed more light than I can.

Chrono24 does not give legitimate protection to its buyers. They only offer a platform for items to be sold and a feedback tool to help with the decision making process. Its up to the buyer to do their due diligence when buying.
As the old saying goes, "buy the seller, not the watch".

Use the Escrow service.

I used it for the first time buying my speedy . I was in constant communication with the seller I was purchasing from and also checked reviews of them prior. Very smooth transaction and item came exactly as described.

Absolutely use trusted seller escrow service AND AMX so you are doubly protected. I have bought several timepieces on Chrono and never had a problem.

I bought one before with no issues. I have heard horror stories about them. So do your homework.
