RWI describes Andiot as "a new dealer for RWI but a well-established seller with a great website". A Reddit thread on r/ChinaTime carries the title "ANDIOT WATCHES, STAY AWAY, terrible product and zero customer service". Both statements exist in public. There is no Trustpilot profile, no third-party rating, and no way to resolve the contradiction from the outside.
This page does not resolve it either. It sets out what each source says, where each source sits, and what a careful buyer does when the record is split.

What RWI says
The RWI forum lists Andiot in the trusted dealer index. The listing describes it as "a new dealer for RWI but a well-established seller with a great website". That phrasing means two things. First, the business existed before it joined the RWI trusted list. Second, RWI accepted it to the index, which is not automatic.
The forum record supports the "established" framing. 1,300 threads and 7,800 messages is a substantial footprint. Most sellers on this list have fewer.
The site, andiotwatches.vip, records 777 monthly organic visits across 6 keywords. That is a small but real search presence, and the domain has 436 referring domains. Those figures are consistent with a functioning business, not a placeholder.
What Reddit says
The Google page one for "andiot" returns the seller's own site, three Reddit threads, a Facebook group, and an Instagram profile. No review site of any kind appears.
One Reddit thread on r/ChinaTime carries a direct warning: "ANDIOT WATCHES, STAY AWAY, terrible product and zero customer service". A second thread on r/RepTime offers a neutral order timeline. A third asks "Anyone have any experience or feedback on Andiot watches?" without a conclusive answer.
The warning thread is specific. It names the product quality and the customer service as the problems. Whether it reflects a single bad transaction or a pattern is not clear from the thread alone.
Why there is no independent score to check
PureTime has three Trustpilot profiles. Andiot has none.
That absence is worth stating plainly, because it removes one check from your process. Trustpilot scores are imperfect, but they aggregate multiple buyers over time. Without one, you work from forum threads and Reddit posts alone, which are harder to evaluate for volume and recency.
No review site appeared in the Google results for "andiot". That is the full extent of the publicly accessible rating record.
How to weigh a split record
A split record between RWI endorsement and a Reddit warning does not cancel to neutral. It tells you that the seller's performance is not uniform, or that the two communities have seen different samples of it.
RWI's trusted list is based on the community's collective experience. A single Reddit thread reflects one buyer's experience. Neither source outranks the other automatically. The steps below let you add current data rather than rely on older sources.
- Search the dealer's name on RWI and sort by date. Read the most recent ten threads.
- Search the dealer's name on Reddit and sort by new. Check whether the warning thread has replies that confirm or dispute it.
- Contact the seller with a specific question about a specific watch. Evaluate the response time and the precision of the answer.
- Ask in a current RWI thread for recent buyer reports before committing funds.
Before ordering
- Confirm the payment method and understand that most replica transactions are not reversible.
- Get quality-control photographs of your specific watch before it ships.
- Ask what process applies if the watch arrives faulty.
- Use the UK WhatsApp number to establish contact before paying, not after.
