Against my better judgment I ordered another RZE.

Last year I bought a super compressor that literally every possible way it could have alignment problems, it had problems.

Well this one has finishing on the sides of the case that would embarrass a $50 Timex.

I’m done with these guys.

Edit - I contacted them for return and was told to just send it back to Singapore and be sure and let them know tracking. What a waste of money this has been. Unbelievable. I’m anti-RZE now and going to dump my other two to get them out of the house.

Edit 2 - Cost me $68 to ship the watch back to Singapore and RZE asked me to claim the watch worth $200, which I did and replied to them they owe me the difference between the $200 and what it should have been insured for if it’s lost.

So you had to pay return shipping and they asked you to commit fraud? Nice.

I think I'll stay away from them, too.

There are so many more yet to explore…..LOL

Seriously though I do look over what I have just to make sure I don’t buy the same/similar colorway.

Had to give it a punt for $125. Amazon’s liberal return policy and Kohls 3 miles from my house made it a zero risk.

Botach is in fact legit. Both of my Seiko GMT’s arrived today. Their shipping is a little wonky as a shipping label was first created then cancelled…….which had scam written all over it. 48 hours later it updated, shipped and got here 4 days later from Vegas to banjo-music-squeal-like-a-pig SC.
