Anyone have experience with Kara's watches?

They have a bunch of listing on Chrono24. US-based, offer references, and offer not only a new, unused Rolex with plastics in-place, but also with the buyer's name on the warranty card from an AD (and all boxes and papers).

I'd love to know if you have any experience with them. Thanks.

Isn't this the same TRF trusted seller, Shane, whose handle here is "alikara"? If so, I just had a straightforward communication with him. I believe he has a trusted reputation here of honorable transactions--you can research this here at TRF. I am considering a purchase in the near future and unless something unravels between now and then, I'd be happy do business with him. I like my name going on the warranty card and having that information transmitted back to the source AD.

Bought a 116613lb from Shane, smooth transaction, great watch, name on the warranty card. I would only buy from him in the future.

Based on google search, Kara's watches is linked to this website : https://www.ashford.com/us/watches/m...a/cat20436.cid
How come the website shows only 3 pre-owned rolexes?

Hey Alex21 I'm not sure what led you to that website but that isn't us. If you google Kara's Watches the links on the first page are all us.

Oh okay, thought it was your website with that same name. My bad.
So basically you have no website other than using platforms like chorno24, james edition, etc. Right?
if i'm wrong, what's your website?

Great Experience

I recently purchased a Rolex Explorer II model and Shane was extremely helpful and patient with my questions. He put me at ease as this was my first time using the Chrono24 site. The process was quick and easy and the watch arrived exactly as promised. I wouldn't hesitate for one moment if you are considering purchasing a watch from Kara's.
