Hey guys, I'm new to this forum and I was just wandering if anyone could tell me if this website www.perfectwatches.cn is legit, because I really wanna get my hands on a Rolex Submariner with Blue Tachymeter and Blue Dial(picture below). Thanks :D

Not going to lie....I'm very confused as to when we yell at the noobs to use the TDs and when we credit them for finding new vendors....

If they aren't on our Trusted Dealers list, your money is a gamble and the chances of getting what they show you are slim to zilch.

 

Western Union isn't something to be "Gotten", you sign up for it, it's FREE!

 

Sign up for a WU account, call your bank and make sure they don't block WU payments, select the watch you want from the TD's lists, and you're golden.

 

Sit back, wait two weeks and ****POOF***** You'll have a sexy rep in the mail. A watch that is how you seen it on their site, now on your wrist.

Not a new site , been around for a while .

 

But why would you tempt fate with a dealer of no known background when your watch of choice is available from a dealer who is Trusted .. Makes no sense !

New vendors means, or should mean, trusted dealer.

I'm sure you've seen (quite) a few noobs asking about a dodgy site selling gorgeous reps, only to end up with what you've seen here, nothing new about that.

My first post was about such a scam site which offered an impossible rep, as it turns out, so I've learned since to stick to the TD's and basically just ignore any other such site.

So it is a very good advice to stick to the TD's, that way you get support from the staff should things turn south in a deal.

New vendors, I.E trusted dealers, is something that which should only come from forum staff, who's very in the know about these things and knows which dealers that could be considered to be trusted.

New dealers both makes it to the TD list and for that matter also goes away from the very same when they're no longer considered to be trusted, all for the sake of keeping the members as safe as possible with regards to who is to become just that, a trusted dealer.

 

HTH.

Hey, that's my starting point too, but this thread happened just last week, and some senior member came out on the otherside of the fence on this point. Just saying.....gets confusing.

Using a pretty site you discovered is most appealing in theory but the "net" is filled with sharks. There are thousands of sites out there that have come and gone and most have scammed people, hence it is not practical to try keep a list of those that are legit....oh wait, we do have such a list, it's the trusted dealers here.

I used them for my first purchase in the rep world. Ordering was easy and shipping was fast. If you need a good beater I would say their good for that. I then placed an order with a TD and paid over double and was half as satisfied. Did notice that they have increased their prices about 35% since I ordered from them.

You can ask the TD about the watch and they will send you over some payment details for western union.

 

You can then walk into a western union shop/agent and send them the money. That way no one gets my cc details, as I had over cash to the agent.

 

I find this a safer way

Before i found this forum, I used perfectwatches.cn for my first 2 reps and had good experiences both times. They accept CC's, shipping was fast, and communication was excellent. The watches I received were exactly as advertised, both in the $150 range. They both function and keep time well, an Explorer and Datejust TT. I used them because they take CC's and I had safe recourse if they tried to scam me. However, always know that YMMV. With all that being said, I would agree with everyone to stick with the TD's here. I could have been totally scammed, I just got lucky! I'm working on a BK purchase now and will stick to TD's from now on.

Some also accept PayPall, easy to set up. And maybe, if you try hard enough, they even accept Banktransfer? Next to that, it is really easy to set up a WU account.

If you want one like the picture you need a Rolex Dealer/AD.

I wouldn't buy from any "Replica site" that uses gen pics.

Yes perfectwatches.cn is legit. I have bought three watches from them before I discovered this forum. At the time I though I was getting the best for my money but far from it. Their prices is like double of what TDs will charge. You get better quality reps/movements with the TDs here. Don't waste your hard earned money on them. You are lucky to get here before ordering from them I wasn't that lucky. Do your home work, take your time, search, ask, read and learn then make your move......Goodluck.

Hey itzkr15!

 

Website is not a scam. I've dealt with them before. You pay with your visa card, most likely your bank will think it's fraud, so you'll have to clear it with them right away. You won't get any QC pictures like from TDs here and you will get your watch in mail in about 7 days.

The quality of a watch you'll receive is not that great. It's something our TDs have been selling a few years ago.

 

Also, these guys offer two grades:

lower- comes with 21 jewel movement, usually between $100 and $200 (fit and finish is just ok)

higher-unknown; I have never bought this grade because I think it's ridiculously expensive at $600-700 (the same fit and finish as above and supposedly with swiss movement)?

 

I am a fan of experimenting, even if I have to lose money, but if you are looking for a good product, check the list of Trusted Dealers.

 

These guys probably won't take your money and run, but they don't have quality product. In fact, you would pay less for something like that on Canal St.

 

perfectwatches.cn simply does not fit the bill. Maybe one day they will, maybe not..

 

Best of luck to you!

Yes. The entire list comes from Noobs. We were all NOOBs at one point.
