Is that 'e' really in their address? Sounds way too much like a scam / clone site based on that alone. Now, as for 'watchshop (dot) com'.. yeah, it's risky. I bought my ventura from them recently and had no problems personally, however i've read a lot of reports indicating that it's very much a luck-of-the-draw kind of thing.
I'm based in the us and I saw this site with watches that were considerably cheaper. However I looked at the reviews and saw that people got conned by this site. It has cheap(er) watches but should I save my money or should I buy from them?

If so, yes, it's extremely legit, the Watch Shop is one of the biggest watch retailers in the UK, they even advertise on the tv and have been around for years. They are AD's for all the brands they sell, have a physical showroom store, and even have a free 30 returns policy in the UK. Buying from them is pretty similar to buying from a shop like Goldsmiths or Earnest Jones.

How much risk are you willing to accept, because you're better off flipping a coin with this seller.

First time i've used Watch Shop..... and had my G Shock GD-350 delivered today from them.
![Watch Analog watch Watch accessory Wrist Strap]()
While i like the watch very much....... I'm not so happy with this seller.
This watch is clearly a customer return. No protective film on caseback or crystal, various settings have been made in the module, watch was not put back in the tin correctly causing the sponge to deform and theres a small scratch across the tin. This watch has obviously been used by a customer and returned to Watch Shop.
The watch itself is perfect though, i really like it and it was a good price with discount code, trying to decide whether to go through the hassle of sending it back for replacement.
So be aware.... If you order from Watch Shop, you may end up with a customer return.
