Speed of delivery more than good. The watch meet description to a tee, only way it could have been better if the watch was free. But that’s just being greedy, more than happy with the total experience... See more

Glaco 1958 watch

Another fine deal from BirthYearWatches. Watch was inexpensive but keeping great time and an interesting history to it. Thanks again Scott.

Terrible experience

Terrible experience. We agreed on a price for a watch and I confirmed via email. He ended up selling it to someone else a few hours later. Either because they paid more or because they are a regular. Either way its bad business. I find out later through research and asking experts that the dial was not original and was custom made. It should have been advertised that it is a frankenwatch. I dodgeed a bullet. Stay away!

We agreed a price, but I never said I would reserve the watch for you. You didn't complete the purchase, and the watch sold overnight while I was asleep. First person that pays gets the watch.
