threenineline 0 Posted January 5, 2012 Hello everybody! I'm Stephen and only as of last year have found the joy of replica watches. I had a IWC 3717 rep to start things off but sold it. That only started the infection of wanting more and more reps. A member from a "next door" forum referred me to y'all and so far I really like it over here. He is the great txrob779 :heavymetal: I just found out that he lives just down the road from me around the Ft. Worth, TX area. Good to have another Texan from the great Lone Star State! Anyways, thanks for having me and I look forward to meeting you. Also, if you wish to comment on this thread could you tell me what your first rep was and what made you decide it was the one? Thanks everyone! -Stephen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

greg_r 83 Posted January 5, 2012 Welcome, mate! At least another Texan helps us balance out all the Scandinavians.... As for your question, well my first rep was a Rolex DateJust bought about 12 years ago. Bought it simply because I'd been wanting a gen for years and couldn't justify the cost. Subsequently I bought a couple of other DJs and Day/Dates then took a long break from the hobby before getting interested again and starting to collect a rather wider range of watches back in 2007.

powderfreak 0 Posted January 5, 2012 Hey fellow addict My first one was a SMP 300, always wanted a Bond watch and before I really knew what I wanted I got a nice offer Mine was a 21j with mineral glass, now I would spend a bit more and get a Planet Ocean with asian clone, it's damn good value for the money!
