Mystery Shopper 5,887 Posted October 3, 2012 Hello & welcome. I don't know if it is worth selling it later in the member sales section after you qualify to participate. See the link attached. http://www.rwg.bz/bo...tion=rules&f=65 These are 2 of my wife's watches. The J12 comes in smaller sizes but she wanted this one.

How do I contact them please? x If you go down on the front page of the board you will see a section called Trusted Dealers. There you can see specials they have on offer and links to their web sites. Also for instance if you go to Watchinternational and click on their specials a new page will open. Find a Watchinternational and put the mouse over it and a box will come up. Here you will have an option to send them a personal message. Works for the other dealers as well. Hope this helps.

onionbag 1 Posted October 3, 2012 Hello and welcome Claire. Regarding your Chopard, something like this maybe? http://www.1-pc8838....rtz-p-4286.html Send an email to [email protected], enclose the above link(if that's what you want) or a photo and see what Mary and Rochest come up with. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Luthier 1 Posted October 3, 2012 First - all women here are in their 20's, doesn't matter, what passport says. Second - I highly doubt your Chanel is a replica. 20 years ago no reps of Chanel were available, and replica wouldn't live 20 years. And third - welcome to the Forum, and here's watches for you: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ClaireB1973 0 Posted October 3, 2012 Oh god I love all these watches! Hmm my Chanel is 1986 - def been in a drawer since then, I've been married 8 years and its been here all that time and hubby inherited it - his mum died 20 years ago but Chanel dealer in Darlington said its a fake! It had a new battery this afternoon and worked perfectly since! I soooo want that chopard oval sports one and the Cartier and the Chanel j12 .... Oh where to start?! Will be reading more forum tomorrow I can't absorb any more info today! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Luthier 1 Posted October 3, 2012 Start from reading our Trusted Dealers feedbacks, then choose your dealer. Then send her/him an email with picture of watch you want, that's it. Don't rely on dealers websites - they're in some cases not updated. Your Chanel dealer, maybe, was in tender age in 80's, so, he knows shit about this watch.
