I received the watch and love it.  Thanks for another great transaction.  Have a wonderful holiday season.
Until next time,

Hello Edward,

 
The watch came in this morning. Everything is as described. The watch is flawless.  It has been a pleasure to deal with you.
 
Best regards,
Yfm    8/21/2008
 

Edward,

The GO arrived yesterday and I am quite pleased with it.  I'll periodically check your website and perhaps there will be something else I want when I am ready to buy again (post-September).
Thanks again for giving me a perfect buying experience.  Best of luck and good health to you as well.
Thanks,
John Herke    6/24/2008

Edward

Just received the watch, its perfect.

Many thanks for an extremely accurate description of the watch.

I hope I can find another watch on your website someday that I like - this one went to my son and he is over the moon.

Thanks Edward.

Lyndon N G Bigmore    6/5/2008

 

Hello Edward:

 
 Yes, the watches arrived yesterday.  I didn't have time yesterday to open the parcel, but I did this morning.  I am very pleased.  Thank you.

 

Peace,

Phil Winters    3/9/2008

 

Hello Edward,

The Zenith arrived this morning safe and sound. We can both now breath more easily!

What a stunner – it looks even better in the flesh than in the pictures. And in such immaculate condition. I am so happy with this purchase. Thank you for bending your usual overseas rules to sell me the watch.  

Please feel free to add me to your list of references. It has been a true pleasure doing business with you, and I hope we can do so again. I shall keep an eye on your website to see if anything interesting comes up. (Also, if you happen across a Zenith Rainbow Flyback with coloured dial please contact me direct. I will be interested!)

Thanks again and I hope to be in touch with you in the future.

Kindest regards,

Jeff    3/7/2008

 

Got it!  Gorgeous.  Thank you so much Edward.  Have a great weekend!   Michael  2/1/2008

 

Hi Edward,

 
I received the watch today. I am extremely happy with it. You said in the text it was 95%, I don't see it, this thing is 100% good!!! We will be doing a lot of business in the future and your site will be my first choice when looking for a watch. I will check your site before anyone else's thats for sure.
 
Thanks again
Brian    1/17/2008

 

Edward --

I received the watch and it's beautiful! Thanks so much for the smooth transaction and walking me through the wire transfer process.

Thank you.  Watch is better than described.

Thank you,

Hi Edward,

I just today  received the watch--looks great!

Thanks and cheers,

Geoff    8/7/07

 

Edward,

Cheers!

By the way, your web-site is exceptionally good, and not just in
comparison with the lamentable state of the medium. I can't judge
(let alone help with) your job-professional matters (I teach
philosophy at $90,000 a year), though your description of watches
combined with your photographs show both exceptional intelligence and
taste--which is today an at once crucial and rare combination, and
speaks brilliantly for you.

Regarding watches, I am no collector. I just wear them. I don't
happen to like gold in any form (even substance let alone, god or
goddess forbid, color) or chronographs; and all but the Invicta-type
line is far, far beyond my cash flow. But, then, since a kid, I have
always wanted to have a moon-phase watch of high quality.

Best of health and luck to you!

Geoff    8/1/07

 

Ed, got the GP this morning just fine. Wow what a watch. All just as you described. It was nice to do business with you.

regards,

David Harwell    4/9/07

 

Hi Edward,

I received the watch today—it looks great; thank you!

Davin    1/8/07
 

Hi Edward
I just received the watch. It is very very nice, exactly how I wanted.
Thanks. 
Carol    12/19/06

Hi Edward,

Well out of the blue, my mailman showed up with the watch. I’ve looked over the watch and leather strap and everything is perfect as you said. I haven’t taken out the bracelet, but it looks to be all there. I didn’t think I’d like the leather strap with the additional leather under the case. But it feels pretty nice actually. So I may just leave it on. I found what looked like a flaking piece of gold plate on the bezel. It turned out to be some plastic that was stuck on. It wiped off with a soft damp cloth. So no issues there. The gold sets off the appearance really nice. The contrast with the black dial and leather looks real smart. I just wish it had a display back. I do like watching automatic movements doing their stuff.

Edward, thank you again for selling me this very nice watch. It will take its place next to my Ball Hydrocarbon and some day soon the rose gold Zenith that my dad is holding for me in San Jose . If you get in any new watches, please let me know.

Thanks, 

Dennis    11/21/06

 

Edward: Good to hear, thank you for an excellent transaction. Please also use me as a reference as well. Thank you and have a nice weekend. Sherman    10/14/2006

Thanks Edward, I am very happy with the watch that I received. I will be checking you website for other watches in the future. Sincerely, Bart  10/6/2006

 

Hi Edward,

Thanks for all the watches!! 18 of them are here safe and sound...The Rolex is NIB, the Zenith is really a great-looking one & the D&B is very interesting piece.  What a deal!!
 
Wishing the President arrives soon!  You'll like it too.
 
All the best,
Daniel   5/18/2006
 

Hi Edward,

I am so impressed by your superior packaging. It took me almost 10 minutes to unwrap the watch. You are the best!!
 
This Rolex 18K Blue Sub is in like new condition and I'm very happy. Thank you for everything!
 
Warmest Regards,
Daniel Szeto    4/13/2006

 

Edward

    The watch came today , what can I say , its stunning , needless to say its Brand New and never been worn as you described .
the Pictures don't do the watch justice and the sapphire crystal is so clear it disappears .
 
Many Thanks
Louis Salvaggio    3/16/2006

 

Hi 'Cousin' Edward,

Greetings! I received the ML Flyback today. This is just perfect!
 
The fruit Delight is my favor candy.....:-))....Please accept it as my small token of thank you with all you've done to our friendship. God bless!
 
Best,
Cousin Daniel    12/14/2005

Hi Edward

I picked up the watch today from the post office. It was exactly as depicted and I am very happy to have chosen to acquire the watch from you. This was a smooth and easy process and I will be looking again to acquire another watch from you in the near term. Please feel free to use me as a reference if you should so choose. I would be glad to and will be referring some friends to you as well.

Best Regards

Edward:

The Blancpain just arrived and as you well know- IT IS STUNNING!!!

Thank you so much- must have been fate as I just missed an SS one that day and began an internet search for another and there it was!!!

Have a great weekend! I have added your site to my favorites list and have passed it on to some of my friends!

Sincerely,

Greg Baker    6/18/2005

 

Dear Edward, I returned to New York last week and then left the very next day for a tour of Canada. Pardon the delay in getting back. The watch is fantastic and exactly as described! You were right when you said it was as close as possible to getting a new watch, without actually paying the price for a new one. I am delighted with the purchase. I must thank you for providing me with such detailed information about the watch, which gave me the confidence to go ahead with the purchase. In fact, I was determined not to purchase a second hand watch over the internet, but was reassured by your mails, so decided to take a chance. I certainly do not regret it. Please feel free to put my name and email address down on your list of references. I will be pleased to reply to anyone who seeks a reference. Once again, many thanks and it has been a great experience to have dealt with you. I am sure I will enjoy this superb watch for many years to come. Cheers, Fali  5/24/2005

 

Dear Mr. Lam

Im so glad. I have just received the watch.   It is found in an impeccable state.  Just as I saw it for the first time in your site.  I want to thank you for your amiability and seriousness during all the process of purchase.  It is a true pleasure to know and to do business with people as you. 
 
thank you again.
 
best regards

Hi Edward.

 
The watch arrived at the post office 2 miles from my office at 8:39AM but they didn't deliver it until 2 minutes before 3:00PM. Funny how the post office works.
 
The watch is beautiful. It looks rich and elegant to me.  Thank you again for bending the rules for me and getting me the watch so quickly. I will truly enjoy wearing it.
 
Dealing with you has been a pleasure and I wish you much continued success.
 
Sincerely,
