I was reaching out to purchase it. Thank goodness I didn’t buy from them. I’m sure it would not have turned out well.

Yes, they are clearly confused and believe they are an AD.

Horrible customer service. I have a friend that bought a Hublot from them and for some reason had some sort of issue (mechanical and also strap related), they wouldn't honor the warranty or even want to take a look. He had to file an insurance claim with his credit card to get it settled. So bad.

The question I have is why would anyone who frequents TRF with any regularity would reach out to "jaztime" or whoever they are, rather than DSW or the other Trusted dealers that advertise on this site?

Thanks. I agree. All reasonable questions that certainly didn’t warrant that reply.

probably he doesn't have the watch, and it would be shipped from someone else.

This deserves to be spread. I don't care what the OP asked or said in their original email, this reply is totally uncalled for.

Unreal.

Good question. As you know I have bought 4 rolexes from DavidSW and 3 from chris o neill. All perfect transactions. The watch I am looking for was a mk1 and it’s a little harder to find since they only made them for about 1 year. So jaztime has a YouTube Chanel I watched while researching the watch. They had the watch I was looking for so I reached out since I was getting impatient. Lessons learned.

When you only post 1 picture of the watch for sale you need to ask more questions. But that in itself should have been a red flag. Lessons learned. I just don’t want anyone else to be treated this way.

This guy is playing games.

I just read- he wrote, “call, no emails.” When I called him, he asked how did you the number and please email. I told him ok WhatsApp me on your business account and he pretends to be busy over there too.

Why does their company advertise the fact they were robbed?

Seems strange. Also their nasty gram forgot information after the word permanent in the email.

2008 - 2010: GARAGE START UP
Originally our CEO, started by buying and selling used Rolex Watches via Craigslist and eBays. Thus he was following the tradition of Bill Gates and Steve Jobs. In 2019 he started his first brick & mortar watch store.

2012 - 2013: IRVINE MARKET PLACE
For a short time we resided in the Irvine Market Place just across the street from our previous location but soon had to move out again because a well known fast food chain offered more for our store location.

It is just odd.

Wow found this on the BBB site. Looks like they are scammers. As long as you don’t have to talk to them they seem to be fine. They are not a watch dealer. They source watches and charge a premium for it. Disgusting way to treat people in our hobby. I hope no one buys from these guys.

BEWARE NEVER EVER BUY BROM THIS DEALER

I was looking for an AP Royal oak offshore that was advertised in their website with box and papers that it was in stock. After I clicked the BUY NOW they didn't process my order. I've emailed them to inquire the wire transfer info and the didn't respond. When I contacted them through WhatsApp they've said that they don't have the watch and will try to source it. Later they've said they can't find it and if I want to buy another watch. I replied to their WhatsApp and said I will think of buying another model and contact them later. Next day they are trying to push me to buy another model, so I ignored them and blocked their number. Guess what the've emailed me and say that they can get me the watch without papers. LOL wtf is with this Jaztime
I've replied to their email and said that I've got the watch from another dealer (In fact I've got it from dealer who have it in stock and shipped it next day without fake posting like this Jaztime)

To make things short I think most of the watches of their website aren't in stock (Aka ghost listing) and pushes a sale for a different watch.

The initial post wasnt a scam. Just a nasty response.

Subsequently more issues emerged.

Keep checking on DSW. I see them regularly pop up on there with the MK1 dial. He has one right now fully stickered and unworn.

Thank you. I just bought one from Takuya on TRF. Full set. I’m loving it so far! I’d rather pay a little more and have no worries then to buy from Jaztime.

Because this is where it belongs. Who's Who is where buyers search for seller info and reviews, and post their experiences, good and bad.

I have got to say I never understand why anybody buy from those places? Actually I do, it's to save a few hundreds dollars over watches that cost thousands. If you are going to by an expensive watch, pay the price, pay a few hundreds more to get what you want ... We have a great community here in TRF, many very trusted sellers,as well as well known members / flippers (you know who you are : ) with great reputation and feedback, that will deliver what they promise, talk to you and stand by what they sell.
