New RO Coming... Need a bit help for a peaceful mind!!!
Hi,
Im so excited that my first AP is coming in next coupe of days. This is the watch im expecting:   Im pretty confident on the buy, however, its my first time buying from this seller and i do not trust him 100% ( 90-95% up until now) Do the pics look legit to you guys? I just deposit 10% and gonna have a face to face transaction when the watch arrive. However we do not have AP AD in my city, what should i check to be 100% sure the watch is legit? It will come with a book, box and paper. The date of purchase is 07 december 2014. Please give me advices. I just want to totally enjoy the new baby without any concern in mind. Best regards. Cuong. |

For this kind of $$$ I would want to be very comfortable with the seller. |

We have an agreement when i put deposit down. The pics are the actual watch i will receive, base on the code engrave on back of the watch. Will it be ok? how do i check whether the watch was stolen or not? Please help. No1935 - I26598

If you meet you can tell by weight if the watch is real, that pic is. I would call up AP and ask if you can check if it is stolen but as it has box and papers I think it is unlikely.

When I bought a used AP I called the service center and checked the numbers with them. It calmed my nerves

It sounds like i should bring the precision scale to the transaction. Anyone could tell me what is the weight of the watch please? We can not be too careful these days, right?
I will call the SC as well. Thank you guys. |

I've called AP SC in Singapore. They told me that they can no verify anything without the watch present. Not much of a help :(

The baby has arrived with fully plastic covered. Bring it to a watchmaker. He states its perfect and it has only been wear for few times. In short, I'm the happiest boy right now. Thank you guy for all the info. Cheers!!!

I can not get used to the leather strap yet. Is it just me or the leather does not feel comfortable as my rolex day date with bracelet? I see some guy wears 26320or with rubber strap. How do i find rubber strap for mine? What part do i need? Thank you guys.
