Everyone be cautious of this seller, bought a RM55 dark legend from him, watch never showed !! Did some digging found the pics he sent to me where the same as another guys QC pics even though he sent me a tagged pic of the watch !!
Payed for the watch and haven’t heard from the seller in 24 hours… most likely I got scammed.. stay aware…

just saw this beauty. first 2 pics show a watch wrapped in plastic. Last Pic is AI and if you zoom, the hour marker isnt even straight. BEWARE
Ordered a Daytona ghost mod from this seller in April this year. Shipping info comes in May, and a month later no movement. All seemed well until ultimately the watch gets stuck shipping. Tracking shows clearing customs in Dubai, then mysteriously vanishing. “Gui’s” only solution to resolve is to purchase another watch at full cost, even though apparently he made over $500 in margin on this mod will do absolutely nothing to share in the loss or reduce that margin to provide a solution. There were no mentions or offers of insuring the package upfront at all.
I genuinely wouldn’t be surprised if an empty box was shipped to Dubai as an end destination and a FedEx label was created just to create the illusion that this operation is legitimate.
Other TDs offer reships, or various other solutions but this is completely unacceptable. You absolutely cannot trust this seller.
Honestly all the signs point to this being a scam, and I recently saw another comment from someone with the same situation happening to them. At the very least, know that if there is an issue you will be shit out of luck.
Beware there a fake DDGTOP telegrams. Three different fake accounts
All the accounts are fake and use an american whatsapp number. This number is also used in a fake steve onewatch account on telegram. Please report if seen and dont fall for these scammers.
DDGTOP contacted me this morning raising the issue and wanted me to make sure his customers are aware.
All the pictures are off the fake accounts
The only official DDGTOP telegram and whatsapp are below, image in comments.

Got scammed by this user. I was rather stupid. Should have avoided using PayPal FF. Be safe out there.
I've purchased from Popup since January 2025 and have completed about seven custom builds with him, all of them superfranken projects. Up until recently, things seemed to be progressing normally.
However, I'm now concerned about several outstanding orders that have been fully paid for but still haven't been delivered
- In November 2025, I placed a deposit on a CNC 5711R build priced at $2,100. I completed payment in March 2026, but the watch has st.ill not shipped.
- In May 2026, I paid $2,800 in full for a weighted daytona build with a gen set.
⁃ Around the same time, I also paid $2,100 in full for a Submariner build with gen set.
As of todav, I have not received anv of these watches. I've been told multiple times that shipping would happen soon, but still no shipping confirmation or tracking. Someone from RWI whose met him before actuallv mentioned that currently there are 20 people with similar situations that have messaged him looking for help. Is this an exit scam? I don't understand and i think l've been patient. 2 of the 3 builds were already in stock so I don't understand
Obvious scammer im just messing with him now. Btw i never sent money
I have been seeing a lot of "franks, superfranks, megafranks, etc" being sold across our rep reddits. I am sure that there are builders/modders that provide legitimate services, but I can't wrap my mind around how many there are now. Particularly with newer-model watches whose parts are VERY hard to get... yet somehow people are turning them out? Thinking about how incredibly close the rep factories are able to recreate the genuine thing, is it crazy to think there are people making fake "genuine factory rolex" packaging for rep parts? Most buyers wouldn't know the wiser. It is particularly concerning when someone is reselling a "franked" watch. Not trying to throw any stones at anyone, just want to make sure people take a second to ponder before potentially getting ripped off.
This is a confirmed scammer dropping comments across various WTB posts asking users to shoot them a chat. Please be aware. We have updated the wall of shame to reflect the latest bans so please take note as well.

Anyone have expirience with this seller?
Yesterday I PayPal’d /Manga-masta254 for a v7f ingineur. Today that same post with updated username photo was listed by /abraham_ochieng .
The post on /watchexchangebst is still up but it’s being hidden from me.
