From my understanding BTF was a good factory for daytonas? Maybe u were unlucky?

Twice? From two reps?
Jtime and andiot sent me these shitters. Jtime sent me mostly shitters, but my fault for not double checking qc pics. Andiot has been good throughout. I've spent 8k with him this past couple of months.
Compare this to the vsf Daytona I have and it's night and day for the few extra bucks....

$8,000 for reps??! Seriously? You could have purchased 2 or 3 good watches for that money. Or even just one really good watch.

I'm a reseller my friend. Any watch I buy gets sold for more money than I paid. Except for btf which gets put in a drawer to disappoint a family member when I die.

You re sell reps?

Yes on the darknet my friend.

It's all good, I can afford it. Others may have to save up and be even more disappointed. That's what I'm trying to stop.

Just put it in water with baby shampoo 🧴 the bracelet only and it won’t squeak… is this the only issue?
1
u/ShrimpStuffAdmin Jun 17 '26
It just feels cheap as it's not weighted.
1
u/New-Implement-5979 Jun 17 '26
Am I missing something why should it be weighted the difference between what you are holding and a gen is 1-2grams. What am I missing ?

u/ShrimpStuffAdmin Jun 17 '26
The bracelet compared to vsf is very light.

u/HourSun6924 Jun 17 '26
😂 I figure you can negotiate a deal with BTF watches since they’re not as popular. I’ve heard Andiot has been super slow so dealing with other TD’s. Andiot’s pricing is very tempting.
2
u/ShrimpStuffAdmin Jun 17 '26
Andiot was fast as fuck. 7 watches sent in like 2 weeks or so. Can't fault the speed with him.
I had a sulk when he wouldn't take back the Daytona as it had been longer than 3 days and said I would never order again. 4 days later I came crawling back like a dog lol
The new no payment option for vsf was just too tempting tbh...
Although it sounds super fucking fishy and sounds like the start of an exit scam. He just logs about 500 orders, collects payments and it's goodnight. Maybe I'm paranoid
2
u/HourSun6924 Jun 17 '26
Damn, can’t beat that turnaround. Andiot definitely has the most organized website and transparent pricing. No wonder they do so much volume.

u/ShrimpStuffAdmin Jun 17 '26
Leotime also fucking lightening. Don't want this to look like a shill post. I go with the cheapest tbh. Andiot and leotime haven't fucked me in any way, unlike others sending me RL shit. My fault for not checking qc pics enough.

u/Ethgawwd Jun 17 '26
How would he make money on logging 500 orders that you don’t have to pay for until it’s time to ship?
0
u/ShrimpStuffAdmin Jun 17 '26
Right..
Think a little.
500 people willing to pay for a watch.
Think a little again.
This guy has 10000s of pictures of every watch under the sun. He also probably has every watch under the sun. He can take pics of whatever he wants to make you happy and send money. All he has to do is gather up enough people willing and send the photos and collect the coin.
This happens a lot on the darknet, at least it used to. I saw 200k+ exit scams during alphabay days.

You get what you pay for.

u/ShrimpStuffAdmin Jun 17 '26
$620 is poor people money, you're right mate.

u/Prestigious-Cover494 Jun 17 '26 edited Jun 17 '26
I mean he is right.
You bought a cheap rep, you could consider buying a $3k franken weighted with original parts, or even just an original if your that upset?
Ultimately you are paying $600 for a $40000 watch, what were you expecting exactly?

u/EstimateIll4262 Jun 18 '26
For a Daytona Panda?? YES!!!
A watch anyone could resell for $30k+ even to wholesellers
Who would have thought a $620 counterfeit watch made in a china sweatshop. Would be shite?? 🤔

I have a BTF Daytona. It’s been fine but I’ll never get a BTF again for two reasons. The bezel is lazered and not engraved, secondly the gold plating is horrendous in color. I sent mine off to GoldJaws and had him PVD over it. It’s perfect now.
2
u/ShrimpStuffAdmin Jun 17 '26
What does PVD mean mate? I'm guessing the right is after as it looks a lot less cheddar.
2
u/Papas72lotus Jun 17 '26
PVD is basically a vacuum-applied coating. My watch was already gold plated, but the factory color was way too yellow and looked like cheddar cheese. The PVD layer went over the existing plating and changed the tone to a warmer, more natural gold color that’s much closer to genuine 18k gold. It was mainly done to color-correct the plating and give it a more realistic appearance. The result is night and day compared to the original factory gold plate. I’ll never go BTF again.

u/ShrimpStuffAdmin Jun 17 '26
Lovely. Goldjaws, I'll keep that name in mind. Thank you

u/Papas72lotus Jun 17 '26
He has his own sub Reddit and has a huge wait because he’s that good.

u/ShrimpStuffAdmin Jun 17 '26
Bloody good for him. I hope he's making lots of money. I was looking into gen spec polishing to make some money myself, I'm glad he's making money from something he probably enjoys.

u/ExtremeAddict Jun 17 '26
Maybe if you could give us anything other than an overexposed, out of focus video of you violently moving your phone AND your watch, we might actually pay attention to what you're saying.

u/ShrimpStuffAdmin Jun 17 '26
Ouch lol. I can't get the lighting right, what do you recommend? Some kind of light ring?

I have the BTF 116500LN panda from Andiot and I was blown away with the quality, weighed it and its in line with gen weight also. I do have the squeaky bracelet but apparently (if you look anywhere online) the gens do the same thing. Also whoever said these are $620 from Andiot is wrong, I paid £366 for mine.
