Has anyone had any experience of buying from Tempoinverso? They've got a couple of watches at what seems like a reasonable price. I enquired by email about seeing them but in an response they suggested the watches are in Paris, and there was no offer to see them in London where they are apparently headquartered.
None personally, but others have with no problems – http://forum.tz-uk.com/showthread.php?288969-http-...
Have just completed a purchase with Dominique at Tempoinverso, a beautiful Daytona 116523, it arrived this afternoon, less than 48 hours from agreeing a price, its description was described as 95% to 99% ,,,, I think it was better.
I would have no hesitation in dealing with Tempoinverso again.

Hi,
Just saw this thread and had to comment: he’s excellent and I was really pleased with how the transaction went.
Can’t remember which year exactly, think it was 2015, but really wanted and found on Chrono24, a Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Diver. A 15703.
Tempo...is French and after the initial email to and fro I just wanted to get to the brass tacks by dealing with him over the phone. His MO is that he operates out of Paris, but regularly jumps on the Eurostar (Fridays for the weekend) and does his U.K. business out of the West End, then goes back.
Don’t know how much you know about ROOs generally but they’re probably the biggest scratch magnet watches ever. So I did ask for lots of pictures (he had plenty on his site, but I wanted more), especially of the watch up close to ensure it was in sparkling condition. He happily obliged, I paid the deposit, then arranged for our meet on a Friday afternoon at his West End office.
I paid the balance when we met, and was taken aback by how perfect it was.
He genuinely prides himself, as he says, on only sourcing the very best stock and he said he won’t trade in watches that need work. Of course a lot of people talk up their own business, but a few weeks later through a friend of a friend I took up the offer to have the guys at the Audemars Piguet office in Mayfair to have a look at it, and they confirmed that it was in top notch condition and not a scratch under the loupe. Had never been polished and didn’t need servicing.
When I get round to it, I’ve got to tick off a Fifty Fathoms and an IWC IW379502 Galapagos. When he sources the right one he’s going to give me a call.
Sound guy, and one of the easiest and best trades I’ve done.
