Took the plunge

Recommended Posts

After just a couple of days on RWG, I feel comfortable enough to have ordered a DD from one of the trusted dealers, Josh. I'll let you know when I get it.

 

Exercising patience. . . .

Breathe. . . .

Deep Breath. . . .

Nice choice mate. Probably not the best watch to wear every day if it's an allgold one tho. The plating will wear.

My wife's first rep was a FG Datejust from Josh. Still looks as good as new and she's been wearing it pretty regularly for about 8 months. Maybe she was just lucky but the plating seems pretty good.

Yes Hunter. Welcome to RWG! be sure to check out all of our trusted dealers. :Sleepy:

 

Thanks, and I did - just wanted to be clear.

 

I once own a Rolex green sub and really like the weight of the watch - do I have to worry about getting a light weight from Josh or another trusted dealer?

 

Also, can they easily add a link - with my old sub I needed an extra link so am I safe to assume the rep will fit the same?

A decent rep will come with plenty of links unless you have a gorilla wrist. And weight wise, they're almost exactly the same as gen unless you're getting full gold.

 

Here's a $108 LV Beginmariner, also known as Noobmariner, from Josh next to a $675 WM9 v3 Sub.

I received my watch from Josh in less than a week, and it is beautiful. It has all the right markings and the only thing that gives it away as a replica is the lack of a rose gold clasp. Unfortunately the bracelet is to small, but I sent Josh an email and within 30 minutes he responded and promised to ship me additional links. So, I have a beautiful watch, but can't wear it.

Sorry for the poor quality. I'll work on it.

Upate: I received the extra links from Josh and added them to the band. The watch fit great, and it looked fantastic on my wrist. I set the day, date and time and put it on. A little while later, I checkd it out and the minute hand had not moved. I tried setting the time again and it would not move, but did appear loose. I turned the watch 90 degrees and the minute hand losely moved too.

 

I sent Josh a note and within 30 minutes or less he had replied with instructions on how to return the watch. I still haven't gotten to wear my watch, but I do have to give Josh a thumbs up for his efforts to resolve my issues.

I'll keep you updated,

Bill

Bugger, sorry to hear you've had an issue - as above, you should be fine getting it sorted, it's just the waiting that's the killer! :shitfan:

If the minute hand is loose, it might be easier and cheaper to have it fixed locally than to send it back and wait.
