Advisory : Authentication Rolex Watches

[Darkangel]

Buy BNIB from one of the bros here la! More worth it...

I realised all these after 1 year buy back 10% less is rubbish...coz you can sell to a bro here...at the same price you purchased

Roosterkkk is selling 1 if I am not wrong...9.2k only! Buy buy buy!

[mazingerz]

deposit??? vintage or rare watch?????? this watch can buy from AD... still available but must wait for stock... dont hurry to get one ...

[flamenco]

The fact that u started this thread indicates your discomfort and concerns buying the watch.

It really boils down to your personal preference choice. Most, including myself, here would choose to make a pruchase with a complete set (ie box + papers).

If these does not matter to you, u may consider buying it. Although having the watch verified at RSC is a good idea. No 3rd verification is valid unless from RSC itself. Period.

RSC can authenticate the watch, however having a certificate/card just further strengthen the believe that the watch is real. it is like the IC that states you are a singaporean.

a watch with original box and papers commands a higher price compared to one without.

Agreed. sometime things is just not perfert .Can rolex center produce another certificate just like the one u mention.? Can pre-owned shop receipt (if the shop is reputable ) become the 2nd party certification?

After all yr bros comments. duuno want to take the watch or not? (too bad had put down some deposit) it's selling cheaper then sg roc bros here ranging from 300 to 600 bucks?

isnt worth it?

i will be doing a servicing and verification at ROC.

Btw, warranty card will be useless after the warranty period (2yrs) right?

then what the point of having it if ROC can verified and certified it original or authentic?

yes. black and white on invoice. they did that for every customers. a honest and reputable pre-owned shop in people park complex. (was giving thump up from a few people here)

local set. M series - price different around 300-600. (from fellow sg roc bro who is selling the same series)

but no warranty (international card) only.

[enzo]

ya not worth it if only a little difference. Are they going to write black n white they will be giving 10% buy back after 1yr? Anyway your resale value will drop without the certs.

[triton]

ask them to write this down on the company official receipt or company letterhead. if they dont write down, means they will not honor.

Dear all

they are giving 10% buy back after 1yr.

So any comments guys?

[triton]

is it a local set? if it is a local set purchased from a local AD, they will have records. if overseas set, then not sure liao.

[surestik]

What's their asking price? if price not much diff, can check wif some of our bros' gmt complete package on sale here mah.

Advisory : Preown Rolex - Authentication/Verification & Warranty

Dear all

i have visited one pre-owned watch dealer (in people park complex, not Peng Gwee.) they are selling M series GMT2c (less than 3mths old proclaim by the dealer) without warranty card but with original box and full links? is 13 links = to full links

they told me that if u bring the watch to rolex center, they (ROC) will know that, this watch is still under warranty if they refer to the series nos, no need to have the card.

they are giving 10% buy back after 1yr.

So any comments guys?

[seiko.citizen]

any tips or ideas? would be eager to read and try. i personally find the staff OK... so far they are not rude to me personally or anything, so I cannot comment personally, but I have seen instances where the staff was rude to others (inc. my old man)

[triton]

he find the people there a bit snobby.

i would have to agree with you. there are many ways to deal with them. just need to find the appropriate method.

[triton]

My point of the whole thing was not the delay and time it was brought to me, it was the lack of service and the way things were done. The sales manager who sent the fax missed the point.

do you think they miss the point or they purposely evade the issue?
