tigercrash 0 Posted November 26, 2012 This is my first post, so sorry if I sound like a noobie. I'd like to get a rep Omega Speedmaster, preferably with a leather strap. I looked through the "trusted dealer list" and wondered whether the list is still current. In particular, is the "trusted" part still current. Also, I looked at the Timeshop website and noticed that the watches listed there vary in "movement" type, with "Copy Venus Manual Working Chronograph movement", "chronograph Lemania movement", and "Swiss ETA 2836 automatic movement" being among the most expensive. So my questions are: 1. According to the "Top 10 Lies of Replica Watches" (http://www.rwg.bz/board/index.php?showtopic=39), there is no such thing as "Swiss" made watches. Do any dealers "custom make" some of their watches and could this be why a watch is listed as having "Swiss ETA" movement? (see http://www.timeshops.net/speedmaster/711-omega-aqua-terra-co-axial-man-ss-white-eta-2836.html) Or is this a scam? 2. If the movements listed on the Timeshop website are real, what is the difference between "Copy Venus Manual Working Chronograph movement" versus "chronograph Lemania movement" versus "Swiss ETA 2836 automatic movement"? I assume that these are all of higher quality (more reliable) than the various asian type movements? Which one is of the highest quality? 3. Has anyone had any experience with Timeshop or any of the other "trusted dealers", in particular with reference to Omega rep watches? Which are, in your opinion, the better dealers in terms of trust and quality of rep watches? I am willing to spend a little more for a rep if it's of higher quality - well, higher quality where rep watches are concerned. Obviously I'm not expecting a watch that is mechanically equivalent to the real thing, but I also would like the watch to keep accurate time and not fall apart within a couple of months after the purchase. Any advice or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
