Hello guys,

Im new here.. I wonder if you have any knowledge regarding this brand : Andre Belfort.. Retail was selling RM4000-5000 but i saw groupon only sell for RM900 plus. Any chances of replica or overprice item?

Regards,
Paul

if you think you're getting a good deal, well you're not.
its typical mark up price of a watch 10 times, then give discount 90% to draw gullible ppl in.

watchsnob says it already.

Do you know who André Belfort is? He is not the mustachioed man in the grainy daguerreotype on the company’s website. The man in the photo is no doubt some Civil War-era fishmonger from Boston, and that photo was probably found in a shoebox at a flea market. No, André Belfort is a fictitious person with a vaguely French-sounding name, invented to dupe ill-informed people like you into parting with your money for a baroque case: some frilly script and an open-heart dial.

basically, for any watch no matter how cheap / expensive...if the quality is good, watch sites will go crazy over it.

it may be cheap...but there are still other options in the market.
if u want fancy looking ones, got seagull, arbutus, ingersoll...
also got the venerable tissot...

then for belfort, i doubt u can claim warranty here if anything happens...u dont even know if they got any form of after-sales service.

I received one of these as a wedding present. Like everyone, I thought it looked like a nice watch, even though I had never heard of it. My wife brought it from wowcher.

Within a year the watch was pretty much useless and I'd only worn it 5-10 times. It ran way too fast and the dial broke.

I sent it to Germany for a repair. Some address near Frankfurt using an official RMA from their website. However, they apparently never received the watch despite signing for it. So now I'm stuck in limbo as the courier claim ora delivered and they claim its not received.

Nothing but hassle and the lack of social media around the company make it impossible to make contact. They also take about 4 weeks to reply to any email and I can't find a telephone number anywhere.

bro if we cant convince u then just buy it ... after it breaks down within a year you would have learned a valuable lesson and at a low cost.
