Was incredibly fortunate to win James' raffle a couple weeks back (#46!) and immediately knew the piece I was after - the blue dial VC 4500v from PPF with quick change steel bracelet and rubber strap. James reached out and ordered it for me right away. QC pics arrived in a couple of days. Unfortunately, the first one had some index and date window alignment issues so had to RL. James was great throughout the entire process and we agreed to order another. The second unit arrived about a week later, received QC pics right away and gave the GL. James got it shipped out the same day and provided tracking info.

The dial is as advertised - absolutely gorgeous, you have to see it in person. The strap change system is really convenient and the build quality from PPF seems legit at first impression (other than some rotor noise, which is a known compromise I was willing to make).

Another amazing transaction with James (WA +44 7538 149458) - highly recommend him!

13. Anything else you notice: I'M AWARE OF THE SUBDIAL SPACING AND I DON'T CARE :) The buckle tongue on the clasp appears to be too short (circled) - I asked him to check that. Assuming the marks on the bezel is just dust or the plastic, I think this looks good. Would appreciate any thoughts. Thanks!

Snagged this gorgeous weighted VSF Yachtmaster from James at Alternative Luxury (+44 7538 149458) during the last Fire Sale for $430. Lucked out as the original buyer had to back out and I was second in line. Had been eyeing this one for awhile and incredibly happy to have it on my wrist!

James was awesome to deal with. Got QC right away and tracking number a couple of days later. Communication throughout was outstanding. Watch arrived in a travel case and very well packaged.

I've also been entering James' weekly raffles. Just as I was receiving the Yachtmaster, James reached out to let me know I'd won this week's raffle! I'd already started talking to him about my next purchase so the timing was perfect. Second watch incoming - thanks James!
