WHAT???????? Movement from Japan? Ha.Ha.Ha. My deepest condolences, bro... I guess it's a scam. Buy ONLY from "Our Trusted Dealers List". You're lucky if you paid by PayPal or Credit Card. You can get your money back... probably. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AllergyDoc 40 Posted August 31, 2009 (edited) I used to have that watch: Cost me $90. You've likely been scammed. Lawrence has cheapo Bentleys: http://www.houseofsouvenirs.com/breitling.htm Send him a picture of what you want, or link to the scam site. Should cost you about $85 delivered, give or take. P.S. I had some fun with that watch! Only wore it a few times, though. Edit: Watch cost $90, not $70, from Tony. Edited August 31, 2009 by AllergyDoc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dr.Manhatten 0 Posted August 31, 2009 oh bummer dude. one thing you should always look for when buying reps is the hands on the watch, if they are at 10 and 2 its usualy a stock photo from the makers website and will hardly resemble the watch you will receive in the mail. hope your able to get your money back.

neilowen31 0 Posted August 31, 2009 i live in scotland so was expecting it to take a couple of weeks to arrive, when you type replica watches into google this is 1 of the first sites that comes up so i automatically thought it would have been ok to order from there, fukin scammers, ah you never know it might still arrive yet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AllergyDoc 40 Posted August 31, 2009 Bad news when they don't return your emails. They're usually dodging you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
neilowen31 0 Posted August 31, 2009 cheers for replying guys, i will let u know if it arrives or not, goin to the italian f1 was hoping to have the watch in time for that, oh well shit happens Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dr.Manhatten 0 Posted August 31, 2009 yeah dealin with reps is a tricky thing, most the time even when you find a good dealer, the quality of the watch is sub-par. if you stick with the recomended dealers though they should do right by ya. if your into Panerai's you should check out Jackson Tse or Getatwatch. great value from them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

greg_r 81 Posted September 1, 2009 Yeah, I've come across this site before. Well-known scammers I'm afraid. You may get a watch (if you're lucky), but it won't be worth what you paid for it. Sorry to be the bearer of bad tidings - a lot of us have made this kind of mistake first time around. Go check out our Trusted Dealer list - there's a bunch of folks on there who can be relied upon to supply a decent watch at the right price. Welcome to RWG!

The 10 +2 thing doesn't mean they stole the pic from a gen site - in some cases yes, in this case it would be difficult since this model doesn't exist in gen form. As the others have said, do some reading up on the trusted dealers here to find a proper rep of a real Breitling. It will be worth it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KBH 7 Posted September 1, 2009 It took about 2 minutes on that site to realize it was a scam site. The most interesting thing I thought was they didn't sell Rolex. It's almost all quartz except the chronos are auto which are all obviously 21j movements. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

neilowen31 0 Posted September 1, 2009 the price doesn't bother me, as long it arrives and looks as good as it does in the pictures, this is my first buy, i will use the recomended sellers for my next watch Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trailboss99 994 Posted September 1, 2009 Regretably it prob won't look anything like the pic on his site. It will be a very basic rep. Col. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KBH 7 Posted September 1, 2009 Check out the Cartier Santos. They have the "perfect" dial spacing that no other dealer has been able to get. I think somebody should give it a try. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
neilowen31 0 Posted September 1, 2009 was having a look at 1 of the dealers on the trusted sites bit, Perfect Clones, there watches are the same price if not dearer so the price i am paying doesn't seem to bad to me, it was nice lookin watches on that site, also there pictures had the hands set at 10 and 2 also Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AllergyDoc 40 Posted September 1, 2009 Perhaps, but Josh's watches will be fitted with Asian 7750 movements that will drive the chrono dials. Your watch will not have functioning chrono dials. In other words, Josh's chrono watches, like the Bentley you ordered, will function like the genuine watch. Yours will not. Lastly, take a look at Josh's pics again: the watches are not set at 10:10, they're set at 1:50. They're pictures of the replicas he sells not their genuine counterparts. I'm feeling nostalgic. I haven't explained this stuff to a noob in forever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greg_r 81 Posted September 1, 2009 +1 to what AD said. Firstly, those photos are NOT of the watch your dealer will supply - most on that site are photos of genuine watches. What you are likely to get is a low-end rep with fake chronos. On Perfect Clones' site, however, those are indeed the watches that will be supplied if you order - and they will contain the movements advertised. Josh isn't my favourite dealer, but you can rely on him to supply what he says he's going to supply. I really REALLY hope that you get something decent, but past experience with that dealer suggests you will not, I'm afraid. Sorry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trailboss99 994 Posted September 1, 2009 PC is one of the most expensive of the trusted dealers and not my first choice. Great for a first timer tho. As someone said above some dealers do set their hands at 10 10 for pics. This is because that position does not obscure things like the date window of the dial printing. The watches they have at PC and at all our dealers are a lot higher quality than the one you will get from WatchReplica. I will bet that the one you get from there is a cheap rep made for the African and Mid East market and "sucker" sites like them. The sub dials on that watch shown are not stopwatch dials like they should be, they are faux (false) dials that just move to the date when you click the pusher. They do not work as a stop watch like they should and do on a 250 dollar watch from our dealers. That watch would sell for about 110 dollars from one of our dealers. A 2oo buck plus watch from our dealers would have a saphire crystal not the mineral glass that one has. The watches the dealers here sell are a different kettle of fish entirly. The cheapest rep at PC (a 108 dollar sub) is a lot better than the everyday sites. Our guys sell to collectors who know whats what and not "joe average" off the street who will buy one rep and go away. Our guys depend on us returning time and time again. Col.

I went back and was looking at some of the other stuff on there - there seem to be quite a few gen photos too... But yeah, quite right - on a second look that particular watch is definitely a 21J cheapie. $90 tops. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
