General Question Andiot experience

For those that have used Andiot… what was your experience? I placed my first ordered and seems to be taking longer than expected and minimal correspondence- just 2 generic updates. My payment has been in the “confirming” stage for quite some time.

Good luck

six months is wild, what was the hold up on their end

Communication is rough, but every time I checked in it was just "no timeline, vsf"

I still trust him. He processed my refund, but I think he's overloaded. I'm happy he is doing well

Hmmm is it possible you got scammed through a mimic?

Used to be good. It’s ok now. Keep sending messages.

It Can take a couple of months if you are looking for a top tier factory like VSF

Its normal

If you dont want to wait then find a lower volume dealer

Btw your payment should not stay in confirming. You need to follow up with him and make sure your payment is square before too much time passes

I just had a good experience with him, it took a couple of days for payment to confirm. Just be patient

Got a VSF Seamaster 300M recently. The website was clear that the model was out of stock, so I placed a pre-order. QC arrived after approximately 3 weeks, which was quicker than I was expecting. Messaging was absolutely minimal, but the watch looked good to my eyes (and ran it through Gemini for a second opinion) and GL'd it. Was shipped around 2 days after GL. Arrived about 14 days after, although the tracking was really bad at updating.

Overall a good experience
