Goon 0 Posted May 15, 2010 G'day fellows, New member here calling all the way from Sydney, Australia. I already own a couple of Skagens, Raymond Weils, but unfortunately don't have the finances to branch out to the more top end brands, so I've always resisted. Previously have never been interested in replicas as it don't like the idea of 'fakes'. However, a friend brought back a Tag Carrera back from Hong Kong as a present/joke, costing him $AU30. The quality while it's nothing to write home about, 6 months later, it still keeps great time and works fine. I have heard of more expensive replica watches, so I decide to investigate a bit more, which brings me here! Great forum, lots of knowledge floating around, and invaluable links to some reputable sellers. Mary seems to be the go around these parts! Any other Aussies here? Who have you dealt with? Advice?

Goon 0 Posted May 15, 2010 Thanks for the warm welcome lads (even that gun-totting American chap from Hollywood!). Thanks for the advice graman. I've always been a fan of Omegas, currently debating which model, so many choices! That's the beauty of it though, you can have a lot of flexibility and creativity with them, especially if you mod them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

alistairw 0 Posted May 15, 2010 Welcome buddy, I'm for South Aussie. Looking at the pics on the TV of Jessica coming into Sydney Habour you had a wonderful day today. Beware this forum is addictive, within a short period you'll have a collection of a zillion watches! Luckilly for me Rolex watches all look the same to my wife, she thinks I have three, at last count I have approximately nine! Cheers Alistair Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
