I have bought and sold on C24 using their escrow service and had no problem so far. But I have no experience of what happens if eg the seller rejects the watch and then fails to return it. In theory everyone is ID verified but despite that, I know there is the possibility of a dispute ending in deadlock where the buyer refuses to accept the watch and the seller refuses to accept a return, and the money just sits in escrow indefinitely.
I’d still much rather buy and sell watches through C24 than eBay but it’s never going to be completely foolproof.
