chriszammett 0 Posted May 12, 2011 Hi guys I've been off the forum for a while but I need to buy a rep very quickly. I am getting married in a fortnight and I need to buy myself a smart 'dress' watch, or at least one that can comfortably fit under a shirt cuff. In the past i have bought a couple of panerais and a hublot, both of which are too chunky. I don't really know much about the more subtle watches. So - suggestions please, and dealers too, as I need it in double quick time! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greg_r 81 Posted May 12, 2011 You don't say where you are, but in general if you need it quick, PrestigeWatchCo is likely to be the fastest - but order it right away as you're cutting things pretty fine. As far as dress watches go, how about a Rolex Day/Date II. Not too small at 41mm, but not chunky either. A very elegant watch: http://www.replica-watches-guide.com/forum...showtopic=14553 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Balad1 0 Posted May 12, 2011 To get better advice, what is your location and budget? Also what color dial, strap and watch case is your preference; leather, metal? Something else to consider is buying a rep from another member on this forum or another. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chriszammett 0 Posted May 12, 2011 Sorry - should have been more specific. I'm in the UK, budget is £300 including strap. I would quite like a mesh strap on this style of watch, but it's not hugely important. I don't generally like rolex's that much, but could be convinced otherwise.

Balad1 0 Posted May 12, 2011 Here's a trusted dealer that is UK based; check his photo gallery of rep stock. http://www.replica-watches-guide.com/forum...?showtopic=4553 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chriszammett 0 Posted May 12, 2011 I quite like the Chanel J12 and Audemars Piguet AP JULES AUDEMARS SS BLACK What do people think? Is there a very good J12 rep available as whatever I buy I want it to be reliable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chriszammett 0 Posted May 12, 2011 and I also like the omega railmaster... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ska 11 Posted May 12, 2011 Of those two the AP is far superior. The J12 is just too feminine for a man's dress watch. Now the Railmaster is a fucking stunning watch. But although it's thin, it's huge. So be aware. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chriszammett 0 Posted May 14, 2011 I think I'm sold on the AP JULES AUDEMARS FLYING TOURBILLON. I've found one on precious time but he doesn't seem to be responding. Anyone know another trusted dealer that would have them? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greg_r 81 Posted May 15, 2011 Mary has this one, but getting it to you within the timeframe you stated is going to be problematic. You've left it rather late, I'm afraid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Balad1 0 Posted May 15, 2011 @OP, it's been 4 or 5 days since your original post and you stated at that time you needed the rep within 14 days. Considering you've already wasted a third of your time procrastinating your only viable option at this time is a EU based dealer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chriszammett 0 Posted May 15, 2011 It's been 3 days. I haven't been procrastinating just choosing a watch and finding a dealer. If I'm too late I'm too late. It's being bought for me as a present and I only knew about it the night before the post. I contacted pt straightaway but had no response hence asking about another potential dealer. Thanks for your advice though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Balad1 0 Posted May 15, 2011 Not to bust your balls but your original post was on the 11th and today is the 15th. That's 4 days, the extra day I threw in for exaggeration, LOL. Seriously EU based (stocking) trusted dealer, Period: Narikaa: http://www.replica-watches-guide.com/forum...p?showforum=103 Toro Bravo: http://www.replica-watches-guide.com/forum...p?showforum=156 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chriszammett 0 Posted May 15, 2011 You must be in a different time zone it was the 12th when I posted! ;0) Cheers for that other euro dealer though I hadn't heard of him. Andrew at trustytime has it and 'thinks' he can get it here in 10 days so will have a ponder this evening then order tomorrow with fingers crossed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ska 11 Posted May 16, 2011 Sweet!! Great result mate!! Obviously we'll need photos Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chriszammett 0 Posted May 16, 2011 Will do!! Anyone know any decent strap dealers for this type of watch? I'm clued up with panerai straps but not for this style. Strap will come at a later date mind as this watch is a bit of a budget buster! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chriszammett 0 Posted May 25, 2011 (edited) so the watch has arrived. Top marks to Toro. First watch was marked so he got me another and received today, 2 days ahead of deadline and about 5 days from payment. Edited May 25, 2011 by chriszammett Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
