WOW, haywood milton there are some sellers here on TRF that blow your sales of 500 rolexs out of the water and you need 90 people to do it thats pretty funny

This goes to show you that the absolute best place to buy the exact Rolex you want is right here with some of our trusted TRF sellers. I hope JOEUK finds the exact watch he wants from a seller who can match his products quality
If OP has not found a seller by now, he never will. This post is 4 months old. Read the post above yours.

Buy right here from one of the trusted sellers. You will be treated with respect. The one thing this guy Milton seems to forget is the internet will bury his business with negative remarks. Before I buy anything anywhere I always check for negative comments about a business.

Clearly Milton must have slept through his marketing classes while at Cambridge. Or Oxford. Or whatever. What a mistake to have publicly reacted like this. Harry

Well, it is his business and hypothetically he can be as rude or arrogant as he wants with whoever chooses to become his client. After reading his post here I know I will never be. Not that he cares, obviously :)

Had been looking at some of this guys watches and was just about to pull the trigger on a couple - wont be doing it now though and I suspect his poor 'lording over everybody' 'I'm an expert' attitude will put off many others! A costly mistake! Nice collection or not, he still needs cash flow to keep it - every business does! A little courtesy goes a very long way!

Ladies and Gentlemen,
I have just bought my first Rolex, a delightful and stunning 'D' series Explorer 2 16570 (White dial) from SS Milton in Chester, I have nothing but positives regarding the whole purchase....courteous, mannerly and very knowledgeable people that I dealt with....it really is very easy to "diss" people and jump on the band wagon, take a trip to one of Haywoods shops and you'll soon realise what customer service is all about.

Simple decision...never deal with this seller. ...never includes all those whom i have the slightest influence over. And possibly those who read this post.

Funny how all the negative posts are from individuals who have never purchased anything . Just sat on the fence crowing about a successful business owners decision not to pander to the trivial .
The guy doesn't operate an internet based sales platform , it's quite transparent . Understand it and peck on some cheaper seed .

Why would you even be in business if you can't handle "demanding client" as you said in the beginning? That's why they are called CLIENT! What a prick

Good to see Haywood's business going from strength to strength with the opening of a new shop, taking the total to 4.

Plus, his inventory is now photoed and available to view/disect online.

Sounds like a good idea to wait until DavidSW has the model you want. Maybe he already does. Unlike many here I have not bought from him yet but I came close and spoke on the phone with him and had a few messages back and forth. A friend has bought a few from him. Give him a call. He in into good service. And Rolexes!
There are many other trusted sellers here with great reputations too. Service is everything with a considered purchase.
