True Facet?
Has anyone bought off there? I have bought an IWC from Crown and Caliber and had good luck, but True Facet seems to have ok deals
something seems fishy here https://www.truefacet.com/rolex-subm...0mm-watch.html steve |

I've seen that page. Looks legit. Seller ships to them to authenticate and then ships to buyer if it checks out. That watch you posted has no box and papers. Also aftermarket parts too.

I steer clear from any place selling this stuff. Too many other legit places IMO.

Crown & Caliber
I am interested in buying a pre-owned Rolex from Crown & Caliber, but I am always distrustful of buying second hand. I want to ensure that what I am buying is authentic.
Has anyone bought from C&C and what is your trust level for the authenticity of your purchase? |

My biggest concern buying from some of these “trusted” online grey dealers is whether or not they actually service the watch in full before they sell it. Not sure if they give it the works, movement, pressure testing, etc. I feel like that would cut into their margins significantly so they probably just give it a good look. Then when the 1 year warranty runs out you are stuck paying for a full service. I still think a lot of them are better than Ebay obviously.
