Hello,

I decided to jump on buying a watch from a seller with no feedback or history and hasn't responded to me since I sent payment (Today. I'm impatient.)

Here are the provided pictures. Much love,

The reason I'm asking is because I have learned high-quality fakes do exist.

If you made payment using Paypal, you should seek to return the watch and get your money back.

1. you should ask prior buying
2. you should ask in a watch forum.
If you think, when sharing Infos, someone could buy faster. You are right. My advise on watches, buy the dealer first...

You're right. I've only ever bought watches from a dealer and maybe I need to keep it that way. There are high quality fakes these days and people will buy them for hundreds on purpose.

Update: I called eBay and they immediately forced a refund through PayPal. :)
