vemo 0 Posted June 26, 2012 So glad I found this forum. I was almost taken in by that iParadisiac.co website and the watchesbyjames.net scam! In any case - glad to join you guys. I am a watch fanatic without the funds to match my wants. I own a genuine TAG Link which I wear everyday, but would love a few more choices, and Replicas seem the only way to go. On my wishlist right now are a Rolex Daytona (maybe a Submariner), a Panerai (probably a Luminor Marina), and a TAG Carrera or Monaco. I'll start trolling the boards, but any experiences you can share with replicas of these watches would be greatly appreciated! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

B5GLX 0 Posted June 26, 2012 I was almost taken in by that iParadisiac.co website and the watchesbyjames.net scam! I am a watch fanatic without the funds to match my wants. I own a genuine TAG Link which I wear everyday, but would love a few more choices, and Replicas seem the only way to go. On my wishlist right now are a Rolex Daytona (maybe a Submariner) Wow, your experience almost parallels mine exactly. After finding that Watchesbyjames site, I decided to do a bit more research and found this site. I, too, own a gen. In my case, it's an Omega Speedmaster Pro I bought on a whim 5 years ago from an AD at Crystal City in Washington, DC. My tastes, however, go beyond my means so that's why I'm entering the world of reps. I started looking for a Daytona, but after learning more about the available reps, I decided to wait and bought a GMT Master II for my first. Definitely read as much as you can here. There is a lot of information to help noobies. But of all the tips I've read, this helped me the most: Find a TD that you want to work with and then select the rep you want to buy. After that, patience is the key word. Don't rush into things and don't expect everything to be instantaneous. Welcome to the forum and I hope your experience will be as good as mine has been!
