    Hey,

    I am thinking of buying an Omega Speedmaster Reduced for my 18th birthday and I have been checking out this Japanese website called eLady. Have any of you had any experiences buying from this website? If so, are they trustworthy?

    Thanks a lot!

    Also, don't buy a reduced :)

    Buy a Pro, or a Date, or a MK40, or a Racing, all much better options.

    I had a good experience with them. I realize that not everyone has.

    Like most volume dealers, they do have some frankenwatches and redials. IMO, it's impossible for a dealer to know what is and isn't original for thousands of vintage watch models from hundreds of brands.

    You have to know what you are looking for and looking at, just like eBay. Don't rely on a dealer to do your work for you.
