are these worth anything?

Guys, i read about tissot that their warranties/indemnities etc is not valid on watched bought online.
any comments?

@mayankk - yes they'r worth fair bit. However, it depends on what the problem with the watch is. If it's not a case of missing parts, and the watch is otherwise in pristine condition, it could be quite valuable.
There's quite a large overseas market for these watches

missing the folding cover thing, and the glass, and the hand on the smaller inset dial.

Again I ask the same question, which I asked some time back.

Lots of Edifice owners. But none for Pro-Trekker range?

Dont worry about the product, he's a genuine dealer with good feedback. I personally bought 2 watches from him with a huge discount than others in Ebay.

I just bought a Citizen Eco Drive Chronograph for Rs.15,560.
It's a very new model and love to wear.

Dont be afraid to say it. It's a bad news especially since i bought it only couple of weeks ago.

Will have to convince myself to be happy that I got a windbreaker and casio calculator which easily together is worth 2K

P.S- Is there any solid way to know if the watch is a fake or not. The one traditional way is to check the weight of the watch because the fake ones are light weights but is there any other way also?

If you have keen eyes, the packing is a dead give away. The next is the markings on the face or the dial of the watch. See if they are properly aligned and straight. Next if its a chronograph, see if it actually works.

I won a bid on ebay and as soon as I looked at the packaging I knew it was a fake. If my memory serves me right, the seller was elanwatch.

I got a genuine watch and it came in a Casio box other than the carton where you can keep the watch for years.



Also made a cross check with the local dealer and confirmed that its an original piece. According to him its a good deal as he cant match with that price. Yes its coming along with the invoice and Casion one year warranty too.

If anything goes wrong, you can always raise a claim within 20 days for the refund and EBay is too open for genuine reasons.

@akhilesh, the seller name is timeclubindia

here's my bid details:
eBay India: EDIFICE EF534D-1AV Chronograph Mens Watch (item 300540935287 end time 02-Apr-2011 17:00:00 IST)

@Sajjt- I have the same watch and it looks much better in person than the pics

@aks_karthik- good looking buy. Why not post a pic of the watch on your wrist!

Hi Mayankk,
"Westend" is a fairly common brand in India, I have a matchless too, bought for around 2k. Not very valuable afterall And of course with all the parts missing... well. I'm not too sure.

Looking for a watch (mens)

Requirements:
Budget: Around 15K
Movement - Automatic/Quartz
Dial size - Above 40mm
Preferred Brand - TISSOT/SEIKO/CITIZEN (Others welcome except C Edifice)
Strap - Metal

Liked TISSOT T36.1.316.72 (Avl for 14.5K w 2 years warranty) but it is leather strap.

Any suggestions friends?

EDIT: How about Tissot T17158652 PRC 200 - Lowest price in India pls?

Yes, the picture is only doing 50% justice to the watch. Once you have a touch & feel option will clarify this.

I see some awesome deals on watches in this site www.bodying.in

How reliable are they? Anyone have experience dealing with them?
