Here is a whole page full of the TD's here that you can order a DJ 41 from. As for advice, do some research on here before you order a watch. There are a bunch of sticky threads to read.

My advice:

1) Only order from a trusted RWI TD.
2) VSF and Clean factories are the way to go. (There are Pros/Cons of each, no perfect answer)
3) If you go 2-tone, get it plated.
4) If you want to upgrade, get a WG plated bezel (either flandad plate your stock bezel or buy xing WG plated bezel).
5) Get the watch you like bc 99.9% of people won't notice the watch you are wearing, much less question it's authenticity.

Who are the options to do plating? There is only one guy I know of in the US and he has mixed reviews.

Also, are most people choosing the VSF movement or the CF case? Is there a consensus on RWI or no?

Do you know why the VSF movement is considered superior? For example, is it a 1:1 clone that you can interchange genuine parts on it?

@Bloody9 all this information is easily located on here if you take the time to search. You have been here for over a month and should know by now how to navigate the site.

Edit: member being a dick (post 6) so he will not get any help from me again.
