    Welcome to my Channel.
    Talking about wristwatches is one of my favourite subjects.
    Collecting luxury wristwatches is also a passion of mine.
    It’s a hobby that’s becoming increasingly popular amongst older men and a few ladies.
    Watches are assets not investments. Let’s discover more about buying & collecting luxury wristwatches together.

    I had exactly the same issue here in Hong Kong just recently. My watch was barely if ever worn and I was extremely surprised when they said it was scratched and I only accepted their revised offer simply because I was unable to sell my watch elsewhere, and even with the reduced offer it was still more than I was prepared to let it go for. The photos they sent me of the scratches they said were there are simply not consistent with any normal wear and tear, especially some on the caseback! It hadn’t occurred to me that this was deliberately done but now that makes absolute sense.

    Thanks for the warning Brendan No wonder Andrew left them. When you have in-house Watchmakers who are drawing a wage out of the business there must be a temptation to artificially keep them busy and offset the wage bill by doing things like this. You should spend a couple of quid with UA-cam and promote this video to get as many views on to as possible.

    All this over 150 bucks. I had a cousin ask me to buy him a watch for his son. It was brand new. My cousin let his son wear that watch to church before he had it sized. He called me the next day and told me the watch was scratched when I gave it to him. It’s amazing what people will say after they scratch a watch. I’m not saying that’s what you did but it’s a hard thing to prove for a dealer in these situations. Never buy watches again for family.

    After you provided irrefutable evidence that they damaged your watch on purpose watch, they should polish your watch for free and apologize for what they did. That was the only honorable thing to do.
    I don’t know how expensive it is the Judiciary system in UK, but you have evidence to file a lawsuit against them. They were liable for maintaining the integrity of the product.
    These guys are dishonest.

  • @scuba_1846

    I will never buy another watch from Watchfinder again. I bought a Zenith El Primero for my 40th and when it had issues I sent it back as it was under warranty with them and should have been under manufacturer warranty also. I said I wanted it sent back to Zenith and they completely ignored me and serviced it themselves. I asked for paperwork so I could see proof of what work had been carried out and they ignored that also. Turns out they had already nullified the Zenith warranty as they had opened the caseback before I bought it which was def not made clear to me, when I complained they said that it was my fault for not asking. It was 8 months old when I bought it so why wouldn’t I assume it was still under manufacture warranty?

    @Akstergrind 2 місяці тому +2

    Having been ripped off myself by a number of big companies, I completely understand your anger and frustration at the way you’ve been treated by Watchfinder. What I’m not sure about (possibly because the sound was turned down in favour of your taped conversation with the Watchfinder guy) is the reason you kept packing and then unpacking and then trying on and then repacking the watch again for what felt like ages. Surely it would’ve been better (and less potentially damaging to the watch’s finish) to simply pack it up once and just close the lid on it? Like I said, the sound was off, so I didn’t hear any possible reason for what you were doing, and I’m absolutely not saying that you damaged the watch. Just an observation. I really hope you get some resolution on this. I know how much this kind of thing can affect a person’s mood and mental well-being.

    Times must be hard for used watch sellers at present. That said it’s a great time to pick up a used bargain. Just seen a mint Omega Speedmaster Racing with back and orange dial now reduced by £2,600 from the original used price. Bargain! However the scalping from the grey dealers can be expected as they scrimp and scrape to keep going now the gold rush is over.
