We state unequivocally that Polo Luxury was never involved in the said transaction, and neither have the individuals named in the reports, Emmanuel Odogwu and Franklin Gideon (alias Kelvin), been employees of Polo, nor are we aware of any watch brand called “Polo Wristwatch.”
Polo Luxury is honoured to represent some of the world’s most prestigious watch and jewellery brands, including Rolex, Cartier, Omega, Chopard, Piaget, Bovet, IWC, Longines, Montblanc, Messika, Roberto Coin, and Pasquale Bruni, to name a few. Anyone seeking to acquire any luxury timepieces will do well to follow these guidelines to avoid falling into the hands of scammers:

- Buy Only from Authorised Retailers: Always purchase from established, authorised retailers with proven record of authenticity, history, reputation, and after-sales service.
- Serial and Reference Numbers: Every authentic timepiece carries unique serial numbers and reference codes that can be cross-checked digitally with the official retailer or Manufacturer.
- Craftsmanship and Finish: Authentic timepieces are distinguished by their weight and overall heft. Examine details such as the case, numerals, dials and finishing, which reflect the precision and artistry of genuine luxury watches.
- After-Sales Care: Official retailers provide professional after-sales care, offering maintenance with original parts and services that ensure your timepiece lasts a lifetime.
- Certificate of Warranty: Every genuine luxury timepiece is accompanied by a globally recognised warranty card, duly stamped by the authorised retailer.
We therefore urge luxury timepiece enthusiasts to remain vigilant and conscious of these indicators to avoid falling prey to scammers and vendors masquerading as genuine watchretailers.
