BigTazz31 0 Posted June 28, 2017 Good Afternoon All, I have recently become interested in the hobby of replica watch collecting and decided to dabble in my later years. Now before you ALL roast me, I have read multiple articles on the NoobV7 and Trusty Time. I was told Andrew is a great person to work with so I decided to place my order for the below. I am simply looking for the BEST AVAILABLE Rolex Submariner Two Tone available. Can you all give me some opinions both good and bad on my purchase and if it were a wise choice? I want to learn and that's what I am here for. Just takes a little while for me to type in my old age. And read, and learn how to use the computer, and just about everything else hahah.... thanks all. http://www.ttw-138.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1_7&products_id=15385 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RepGuy 108 Posted June 28, 2017 You seem to have done some research, so I'm confused as to your question. Currently, the Noob v7 (and v8 in the Hulk version) is considered to be the best quality STOCK rep available in all versions of the basic sub (date and no date). It's safe to assume you will have the most gen-like sub if you go with a v7. I will say that for many people, a two tone sub is a bad choice. It doesn't go with everything, and is very flashy. If you're into that look, then go for it, but for many people the solid stainless steel models are a more robust option as they go with literally everything.

Daffy 105 Posted June 28, 2017 Please what is "BP" thank you British Petroleum. Their logo color scheme is green and white. Or, in the rep world, it's the name of a specific rep 'factory', like Noob or ZF. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BigTazz31 0 Posted July 7, 2017 Here is what I paid for : http://www.ttw-138.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1_7&products_id=15385 Rolex Two Tone Sub Mariner - $688 Rolex Matching Box - $108 Here is what I received for over $800....... The Watch arrived DOA The Bezel does not sit centered on the watch. The Bezel is extremely sharp as opposed to genuine Rolex The gold on clasp is fading to orange and completely different color than the bracelet links. The links on the bracelet are very loud - "clinging" / "squeaking" Overall the watch is a completely over priced piece of garbage. I took it to my trusted jeweler who told me the quality of the watch was worse than a cheap Seiko for $25. He also stated that there is a place down the street from me that sells better Rolex replicas for $50 - $75. Result : I will be contacting Trusty Time and demanding my money back or disputing the transaction with my bank. I suggest nobody ever order from this distributor. I placed an order with Andrew two weeks ago, got tracking info, but still haven't seen QC pics. DO NOT USE TRUSTY TIME!!!!! HORRIBLE QUALITY WATCHES Maybe you could take some pictures to show us what you mean. How's that sound Tazzhole I will be posting them as soon as I get home today. Wait for it ......

tomtom1988 63 Posted July 7, 2017 Knew you'd be trouble from the get go, dispute the payment with your van is a no no, totally against forum rules Mr bank manager I bought a rep from china and its shit can I have my money back? Really? If you'd done your research you'd know what to expect, the gen isnt anything to compare to, it's a $10000 watch, you should of known that gold plating on a rep is a bad idea, hmmm it sound ratly? It's not real gold dude! I'm sure it's not as bad as you make out anyway Breakdown QC pics should have been gone over throughly You can't compare rep to gen quality Gold plating is not the best in reps DOA yeah that's a concern but trusty would put that right He's one of the oldest TDs around and hasn't got this far selling shit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cpotts24 0 Posted July 7, 2017 This post has me pretty worried. My QC pictures looked good to me but my watch is sitting at my house and I haven't got my hands on it yet. I went with TT because of the reviews and longevity. Sure hope I made the right decision Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
