Purchased a watch from Replicahuase.com... was that a mistake?

Recommended Posts

So after more than a month of waiting, replicahause did finally send my Breitling replica. upon initial inspection, it seemed impressive. However, after a closer look I noticed some obvious flaws. The most noticeable is the fact that the #2 on the dial is faded and appears to have dirt on it.

 

I am curious, is this to be expected with regard to all replicas?

 

Has anyone else purchased from replicahause? Should I have avoided them?

 

thanks!

 

*new to the replica scene.

Um.

 

$650 for a cheapie breitling worth $40 if it even worked.

$550 for a quartz hublot.

 

The fact that your watch was dirty.

The fact that hundreds of people have posted online that they either a.) didn't receive the watch they ordered. b.) the watch was broken on arrival or broke within a few days. c.) tried to get a refund and got fuck all.

 

Just out of interest which breitling did you order, how much did it cost and can you post a photo of both the outside and the movement?

I paid a little more than $200 for it. Here is a link to the watch I was sent:

 

Mod Edit: link removed.

 

In order to show the movement, i suspect I would have to remove the back -- I do not feel comfortable doing that.

I'm very curious to look at the watch details myself. However I've never browsed over at that site because every time I have tried, Firefox and my virus scanners always go into some kind of alarm-bell mode.

 

Anyone else with the same issues?

Yup just checked them out.

 

The $200 breitlings go for between $40 and $70 at most of our dealers. Sorry.

 

You won't kill the watch by taking the back off. But to be honest there's not much point anyway!!

Biggest SCAM EVER. I got two watches from them and they were both shit and not at all what was in the picture. I replied and said I wanted a refund and she called me a faggot and said if I call my credit card company she will give my address to the russian mob and they will come and kill me and my family. NO JOKE HAHA I still filed a complaint and got my money back but FOR THE LOVE OF GOD STAY AWAY lol :)

If all you lost was $200 you probably got off easy, many have lost much much more. I lucked out and found this forum (the original RWG) right before I was going to place an order - $600 for a $100 watch.

We should invite her to RWG1.1...

 

Seriously, we tell her we would like to interview her about her site for a forum dedicated to replica watches. Then we have a little fun with her.

 

The old timers will recall the BestSwiss thread. Best fun ever.

Also, I just purchased a Rolex Submariner from Marvelous Replicas -- should I be worried about that?
