Hey guys,

I was also tempted to buy from the sites found with google.

But at the end of reading this forum for many reasons it is preferable to buy from trusted retailers recommended by the forum.

Apparently the site you mentioned looks good but does not exceed 55% of the antiscam as a test.

You do.

puretime.co is repgeek.com's most popular and trusted dealer - I'm open to recommendations!

For the sake of the forum, I trust the gentleman here have the common sense to let it drop and get back to helping the noob.

 

RWG does not need a return to the flame wars.

 

@baxter - the watches you linked to are nice. A bit of shopping might save you a few bucks though, those prices look a bit high to me.

 

Remember as a general rule, most dealers get their watches from the same factories, so dealing with a TD from whatever forum you happen to have membership in is a good idea.

baxter465,

 

The UPO is the super rep of your list (I would agree with earlier posts that I would go with the bracelet, but that's just me) to add to this I believe MR (Marvellous Replica) a TD on here sells those for $208 so you can save yourself $30 by going with him.

 

I have the Aqua Terra XXL, got it from narikaa also a TD here(it's a 21j ......and MUCH cheaper) which I enjoy very much, I'm not sure if the hand wind is better overall build quality (I doubt it), but I would bet the strap is shit on both so that's something to consider, I know I'm swapping mine out very soon.

 

 

The other two I have no interest or opinion on......hope this helps.

Chill out guys. I thought we got over this petty bickering BS a couple of weeks ago! Have a beer or some weed or something. At the end of the day it's not worth it.

+1 on that.

 

Check with M at Marvelous Repilcas on the UPO, he can likely save you about $60. Also have you considered the SS bracelet?

Thread cleaned up. Quit the bickering guys.

 

We have chosen not to offer puretime a place here for a variety of reasons, however he is trusted elsewhere, so discussion of watches he is offering is hardly unreasonable.

 

@RichardMiami - well said, mate

As long as we're talking about Omega reps: think this one is worth the money? Would'nt doubt it if it had saphire glass.

It's a Quartz mate, if you're happy with that.

It's a Quartz mate, if you're happy with that.

 

Actually looking for a quartz because of the timekeeping ability and less risks (because quartz quality is always okay from my experience). Am I wrong?

[onionbag 1]

No, you're not wrong, quartz is accurate..............but in this case inaccurate.

The chrono for me. I'm a freakin' sucker for a good looking chrono and this one fills the bill.
