Well I checked out the address and looks like the buyer is a years-long Ebay/Amazon/etc. scammer from Vietnam. Problem is I already sent out the watch the moment he paid.

Well we'll see how he does. My passwords are pretty secure, and non-recycled, and if he tries to pull an item did not arrive/not as described scam good luck to him trying to get any dosh back from this fucking legal black hole of a country.

Yes it's the best bang per buck Casio. You have multiple time zones. You can quick check 4 + your home time. It has easy to push buttons unlike the gshock. You can go backwards and forwards when setting the timer. 5 ALARMS! It also has a very cool amber light that you can set to shine for 1 second or 3 seconds.

New from /fa/ so I had no idea theres a watch general (a duh!) but this is a watch some guy is trading, his story is it was gifted by ex and he lost the box when I asked.

He said it is from 2017, its a Submariner.

Thank you.

It’s a fake. Don’t be delusional because you think you’re getting a good deal. Look at that shit finishing on the bracelet on the second photo. Here’s how the back of a modern 116610 looks. Rolex doesn’t use those stickers anymore. Report the advert because he’s knowingly trying to fraud people.
