The watch has been returned but was confirmed as a fake by Rolex Brisbane.
Does returning a fake watch and having $29000 repaid change the fact that fraud was being committed? Read that again....$29000.00. I would be taking legal advice. This does not reflect well on Australians. If this guy has something to say then he needs to step up now?

I wonder how many people aren't aware they are wearing a Fake Daytona. Out of 1000 people who bought one at a grey or private sale, a small percentage will be fake.

In case any of you think returning my funds after being caught is acceptable; Go rob a bank, when you get caught ask if it's OK to just return the money and walk away.

Makes you wonder how many times this was done by the seller. doesnt seem like an honest mistake based on the lost and OP.

Very smooth modus operandi tends to indicate experience....

It’s a shame the thread title isn’t “Horology House sells fake watches”.
There is little recourse people have against many scammers, but this dude has a name, a business and a moderately lucrative YT channel. I’d be smearing jobbies all over his internet presence like a pig in a bath.

I personally think we need to hear what Chris (HH) needs to say, there is always more to it than meets the eye.
As of now, we only have one side of the story. Innocent until proven guilty? |

FAKE 116500LN Australia Perth Serial 357Q00K9
Chris has some form for dubious behaviour - albeit nothing illegal before now.
For a while he had access to a stream of new desirable Rolex from an AD he had a relationship with. He was flipping them on the AWBSS Facebook forum for massive markups. When people made comments disparaging flippers he shut down threads, deleted posts and/or banned people. Then the Rolex AD found out what he was doing with all the watches they sold him and he went on a massive rant about AD spies on the Facebook forum. I guess they cut off his supply. Based on the above, it seems that once his supply of legit Rolex was cut off he MAY have resorted to selling fakes. I don't know it for a fact, but it smells that way. |

At least we can post here
The Mods are closing down each thread on the Australian Facebook site I get 2.5 days, I'd be pissed off at 2.5 weeks but 2.5 months can only be questioned as something not quite right Oh well nothing like excuses when selling a $30K watch, yeah there's just so many other things to tidy up before sending off Chris has a reputation to uphold and no doubt a smartphone in his hand so look forward to his reply Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk |

I've had many PM, from others that have had been scammed by this guy. They are all still trying to get their money back before they go public.
Chris has been messaging my friend who he scammed all afternoon telling him to make me take down this post.... His had plenty of time to respond. In the mean time he kicks us out of his Facebook Group Scam, and I did not break any rules there. Haven't even posted a single time there. |

Please don't take this down, $29k is alot of money and he has taken advantage of every excuse, Volcano tradegy, Bushfires, Fake DHL follow up. He has shown he has zero integrity, there is no doubt he knowingly did this.
I can't wait for the new transcript :) |

I have no idea why they are scared to post something up. I could post some screen shots of said conversations, but then I'd have to blank out their names which then holds no water. |

Spam the guys YT channel. Even if he removes comments, it’ll cost him time and stress him out.
