Purchased in China

Recommended Posts

HI -

 

I've just recently discovered this community and am thinking about buying a watch or two. I travel to Shanghai and Beijing several times a year and have purchased lots of cheap replicas over the years - usually for $10-$20 USD each. The automatic ones that you can buy over there are all junk - the battery ones are still junk but will usually work for a year or so.

 

I wanted to ask you guys to look at the movement that is inside these Chinese watches just to make sure that the ones from a trusted dealer are totally different.

 

Does this look familiar at all?

Do your reading here and order form a TD here. Much better rep's than in the streets out there.

I did some searching. I'm glad to hear that the ones from the TDs are not the same as the crap you can get in the markets. I've tried to find better ones over there but had no luck.

I have heard a rumor that at least twice a year, Josh, Andrew, Angus, Mary, Reg, Neil, and Eddie Lee meet in Gz. with the rep builders, and tell them which models should be sent to the street vendors , and which should be reserved for themselves...Just sayin..... :giggle: :giggle:
