sardonix 1 Posted January 10, 2013 As for Toro, I thought about this TD, email hin once, got a reply the same day, asked for some precisions (pretty generic questions), but did not received reply. This was on january 8th. Toro is a one man business, he gets lots of mails from new comers, he does not have staff to start long conversations. Be very short and specific in your mails to him. More in the line of "can you deliver this what i want" A reminder mail to him as " hey, i am still waiting on a reply on this one" could help. There are also dropshippers who take more time for your questions but they never see the watch they are sending you. Toro gets it from factory, inspects it, takes his own qc pics and sents it of at your approval. But he is short in communication (a lot are) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

trailboss99 996 Posted January 10, 2013 Welcome aboard, Emmanuel! First - we have a dozen dealers, and about a few thousands of people who buy watches on regular basis, so, just a few bad watches is not a big percentage. Shit happenz, you know it. I, personally, bought over 70 watches, and only one had little fault. So, don't pay much attention to negative reviews, it's not a norm. Good luck with your PAMs! Couldn't have put that better myself George, well said. OP: Mate, most of the points people agonize over here are very small flaws. People get hung up over very tiny details that don't stand out in real life. Remember, most of the pics you are seeing are macro shots. This helps explain: As you have said, the movement used in hand wind Pams is almost unbreakable and if it does die it's about 50 bucks worth or can be worked on by any watchmaker, it's the one most learn on.

Captain Swoop 0 Posted January 10, 2013 You can't compare a company producing high grade, high value custom carbon fibre engineering parts with a one or two man (or woman) replica watch retailing business. If you have a big mark up you can soak up the cost of shipping a returned item and with a customer buying many thousands of £ worth of custom built parts you will send out a replacement on spec before the original is returned. To one of the watch dealers they don't knowwho you are or if you can be trusted to send the original item back and their mark up is not huge. Of course they want you to pay for the return and they won't send a replacement until they have the original back. How do they know you aren't some bozo just trying to con a free extra watch?

emartin 0 Posted January 10, 2013 I never thought my questions and concerns would bring such reactions. Yes I'm a noobie and I'm asking questions. I'm reading alot of ironie and I can live with that but I never intended to be harsh or anything. BTW, I do feel I could find satisfaction in a quality rep and by nature, I ask question and inform myself, nothing wrong with that imo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's great, I hope you can find satisfaction! Many people come here and expect perfection from reps and then are disappointed when they don't get it - if you can live with the odd little flaw or imperfection then you'll be fine!

UmpaHimself 223 Posted January 11, 2013 One big difference you are buying illegal goods.So pick your TD first then the watch. If there is something wrong.....bad luck. A good TD solve it but you loose some money and much time. If you want no risk stick with gens from an AD in your city. +1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
