Hello to all :funky:

Hi there, new to this forum wasn't even aware there was one on such topics. Own a couple of genuine watches myself, Omega Seamaster chrono, Submariner 16610, and Tag Calibre S. However I have recently been introduced to replicas and a lot I must say I am very impressed with. The Hublot Big Bang I recently saw was of excellent quality so I am looking at starting a collection of high quality swiss movement replicas ..... I Hope.

Useful info on here on where to buy the best replicas so looking forward to some discussions. Thanks!

Beware Swiss Movements in replicas.  Read about movements and find out why.  And as to where, read  about the dealers.

Hi gang, been a lurker here for four years or so. Have gone through a number of gens but the watch bug is deeper than my pockets.
Grabbed a sub from BK a few hrs ago now I’m debating between the original sea dweller or the anniversary red version.
Going to research some more and grab some opinions between those two before pulling the trigger.

Howdy y'all from Texas!

I ordered my first rep a month ago and now I'm hooked. Can't wait to start collecting and modding.

Hello All Y'all,

Very glad to be accepted to this most exclusive forum  :beer:

Old dude. here.  First serious watch was a PAM9A, bought new about 1994 and sold on later to pay for an engagement ring...

Got a rep Radiomir put together with a Rolex movement by remote control (got a watch, then had the engine gotten through a friend fitted by a maker, done all by email and post), in the early 2000s.  It's had to have some work done to keep it going, but it is still here and still going (touches head).  Love the plain dial and if I can get to a computer that does not block postimage, will try to post up a snap or two (posting during lunchtime and where i am blocks an amazing number of sites :bitch: ).

Anyway, the watch bug is biting again and am being lured by a Cali dial Radiomir, but it was an Egi that got me thinking about this addiction, again.  Should I be twelve steppin' ?

Cheers,

Frank

Because you can't be sure that it is really 904L steel that's used, note that this doesn't matter

Hello all,

I've got an interest in Tags and Omega's but due to my work,  golf course superintendant,  replica's are a better option for me rather than ruining my gen's.

Reading and understanding the info on here, not expecting to receive any masterpieces  but it'll be better than wearing a casio  g-shock like the other plebs.

REP

Completely agree, I think that's the situation of many on the forum. A replica can be enjoyed and does not have to be inherently deceitful.

Why wouldn't they ?

Have a bit of reading of the pinned topics here and there in order to have a better grasp at how things works and then you'll be able to pick the watch you like from the TD you like ;)

hey everyone, as the name states, I'm a noob to the rep world. I'm from Canada, and I think it's quite limited in finding 2nd hand rep goods but that's just my experience.

What’s up board. I’ve been over at RWI for awhile, new here tho.  Been in and out of the watch game for several years but recently have gotten bit pretty hard. My latest acquisition was a Grand Seiko GMT spring drive.  Next on the list is a datejust but then I remembered the franken builds and started frequenting forums again....so here I am. 

I’ll be donating to RWG shortly. Always have to support communities I’m going to be involved in. :)
