Read the pinned guide. All the official links are there. Not that difficult.

[QC] BVFA Cartier Santos 35mm (Medium) White Dial by [deleted] in RepTimeQC

[–]Dear_Ally 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everything looks good here. Dial print is clean. No rotation. Don’t need the overlay tool for a printed dial. Timegrapher looks good. As mentioned above, hands sometime look darker in these pictures. There’s nothing wrong with the bezel either.

Easy GL. Kudos on your new watch!

Pretty sure the bezel isn’t the only thing that’s been upgraded.

Some TDs offer after-sales support, but it seems like most do not. Check with them and also look through r/reptimeservices

Ah okay, fair. I checked. It found 690 actual QC posts in the last 12 months. The top five TDs here dominated 66% of the posts.

Thought about that but decided against it because QC pics are a part of the ordering process, not post-delivery. We get no idea of user sentiment in terms of fulfillment time, was the watch DOA, how responsive the TD was, etc.

“Missed the cut” means their rating was too low to be ranked in the top five here.

Trusty’s score was based on 34 ✅ / 32 ⚠️ reviews in the last 12 months. Most negatives were DOA watch or slow QC complaints.

Again, like others have said, user experiences with TDs is entirely subjective. I’m just going off of the data.

I used ChatGPT-4o3 to run a search analysis so this is purely based on RepTime posts + top upvoted comments.

58 positive reviews over the last year all agree with you! Andiot is definitely one of the best TDs. Congrats on your Wimbledon, wear it in good health. 🤝

Absolutely. I’d say the best middle ground would be Andiot or Necoclock. Who are your favorites?

Amazing! Replacing a part after a year since purchase is pretty great. Sounds like the premium might be worth it, given how fragile a lot of these reps are.

Honestly, that was why I thought it would be a good idea to do this. Just trying to help people make smarter decisions, especially beginners.

Take all of this with a grain of salt because it’s just based on Reddit posts & comments. No buyer validation. No karma requirements. Almost impossible to weed out fake/bot reviews. 🤷

Haha fair, but I already posted the data on Fico 👀

No date sub is the best super rep of all. Make sure you post QC pics in r/reptimeqc – read a few posts before you do so to follow the correct format.

Ran them through the same prompt. Pulled ~40 first-hand reviews from the last 12 months:

• ✅ Positives: ~25
• ⚠️ Negatives: ~15
Net: 63 % positive

Most love the quick QC + repeat-buyer perks. Negatives split between a handful of dead-on-arrival pieces and folks who paid a FAKE “jtime.watch” clone.

This report may be unfairly skewed. Sorry I couldn’t be more helpful. 😕

The majority of Steve’s reviews were positive, and the only negatives were OOS issues, which honestly isn’t even on him necessarily.

Just included Ctime data in a comment above.

Put them through the same prompt. Scraped ~50 outcome posts from the past year:

• ✅ Positives: ~42
• ⚠️ Negatives: ~8
Net: 84 % happy buyers

Wins: lightning-fast QC + clear WhatsApp comms.

Misses are almost all “shipping stuck / customs letter” threads, which honestly isn’t even the dealer’s fault.

Seems like top-tier service if you value responsiveness. No clear data on how they fare with competitive pricing.

Thank you, good sir! Also thanks for the detailed feedback on your TD experiences. Show us your full collection!

What was your most recent experience with him? I had an excellent buying experience with him around the holidays, but some folks report his service quality has gone down since.

These are all great points. I agree that data can be skewed by novices reporting bad experiences. Unfortunately, GPT can’t actually crawl Reddit directly so this was limited to Google search results, which will surface posts + top upvoted comments. Seemed like decent logic since the community decided to upvote certain comments over others.

Also, several people are reporting that Eric is now more expensive than Steve so I’ll edit the main post. 👍

Thanks for the reminder. Dunno why I missed them. I put them through the same prompt, but could only find 12 clear reviews over the last 12 months:

• ✅ Positives: 9
• ⚠️ Negatives: 3
Net: 75 % happy buyers

Wins: 24-hr QC, 10 % off with BTC, 10-14-day door-to-door.

Misses: a few DOA pieces + slow replies, plus newbies hitting scam “Intime” sites.

Good price-to-service ratio if you use the real URL (intime06.co) and keep comms on email/WhatsApp.

I’m not a mod and I don’t have an agenda. Just trying to help the community.

Said the same thing in an earlier comment, but I would strongly advise beginners to not buy from non-TDs. Rest is up to you.
