Probably the wrong spot to post but I got no answers in the seller section. Am going to the US in January and was hoping to take advantage of the tax back 11%. I have been looking at this watch at Watchtime forever. It seems like good value at $9K (pre tax back), but the reviews of Watchtime on google are not great. Can anyone provide advice on this company, I dropped in there a couple of years ago and it is a nice looking little store, but if they have a bad reputation I will run. Maybe one of you has had a look at it (has been for sale for many months), it is not a popular modern dial but I like classic colours so that does not worry me. Has not got a box or papers which is also of concern (may need service, I fear they will open it and find wrong parts or worse). If not I may go for a watch from Nick Hacko, he is never cheap but at least I know he is legit as are his watches. With the Aussie $ down low, buying in the US now does not make sense like it did just 12 months ago.

I just bought a Rolex Sub through them a couple of months back.
They have been around for a long time (10+ years) and have been in the Block Arcade for longer.
A1 reputation and out of all the retail shops that sell '2nd had Rolex' their prices are generally fair.

Nick Hacko seems to be probably one of the more expensive sellers BUT his reputation is flawless and he is smaller than watchtime.

They have also reduced a few of their prices over the last 24-48 hours.
Your watch is now down to $8990 inc tax.

Yes Watchtime has what looks like a very reasonable price for a 168000 so they may be worth checking out for that watch you are interested in.

Nick Hacko does have a good reputation but asking $99 a year to be on his email list seems a touch greedy IMHO.
