www.topswiss.co.uk - Scam Dealer Review

Site originating out of the Russian Federation operating since 02-Nov-2007. Customers report of having ordered their AAAA quality watches and receiving junk, with no return, exchange or refund option. Their "swiss" quality replicas run around £400, a price extremely high for any sort of replica even assuming that the watch delivered is in fact the highest grade.
Topswiss.co.uk is claiming to be based out of the UK. Their server IP as mentioned above is pointing to the Russian Federetion, and the watches are not shipped via the Royal Air Mail, but rather out of the Philipines.
It is worth mentioning that topswiss is not the worst kind of replica dealers (based on the user experience so far) as they deliver the watches. They misstate the information on their site by saying that their watches are Swiss made and carry the Swiss Valjoux movements. That is not the case and this makes them a scam dealer.

A recent email reveived from topswiss explaining why their watches are arrving from the Phillipines.

Hi Craig,
We totally understand your side. Please wait and see for yourself. This is our shipment process below, so you would understand more about Topswiss.co.uk We import from different manufacturers in Switzerland. All stocks go to Philippines from Switzerland. We then ship all stocks to our UK branch office to be sold as UK stock to customers. The reason why we dont import directly from Switzerland to UK is because of the customs problems. Thats is why need to make a detour. In some cases, we have low stock in Class AAA ones (high end watches) in UK thats why we inform our depot in Philippines to just ship directly to the customer to save time although it is more costly for us. As we dont want our customers to keep on waiting
.

Apart from the strange fact of the Swiss watch factory shipping from the Philipines his email has been received at 2:25am UK time... Weird business hours.

And again, there is no such thing as AAAAA ++AAA tripple star replica grade. This is an underground counterfeit industry and it's not exactly regulated by the Underground Counterfeit Fair Trade Standards Association.

So in short, what are the problems with topswiss.co.uk?

  • They lie about selling Swiss Valjoux movements and deliver the Asian 7750
  • There is really no such thing as Swiss Grade AAA+
  • They grossly overcharge
  • Even if their watches do come from the UK, they are clearly not made there... This makes them a drop shipper and, in the worst case scenario, the watch does not come, the seller does not stand by their refund policy and you are out of your money...

The best case scenario, the watch does come, it is the same quality as any other replica and you overpaid three or four times (we are not talking of course about the watches they offer on their site for mere ₤150 which turn out to be complete disasters).
