Purchasing a Rolex from Mall of the Watch Monaco

Hi guys

OK so I have been dealing with the company "Mall of the watch" who are based in Monaco.

My question is, how do I know if they are reputable? I can only pay with bank transfer, and therefore have no cover if the watch does not ever arrive or it turns out to be not the real deal.

Their website looks legit - but thats easy to fake.

http://www.mallofthewatch.com/

Would you guys use them or should I avoid?

Myself would not risk it plenty of places in the UK to buy a Rolex.

x2 The little bit of savings isn't worth the risk. You'll agree if you get scammed too.

Oh, and if the price looks too good to be true, it probably is.

Did you end up buying a watch from Mall of the Watch? And if so, how did it go?

They look legit, Some friend bought Omega DSOTM and it was all OK.
Prices are low however, which always makes me wonder about authenticity or legal origin.
