Hi, Group!


Here's the second ROLEX rep I purchased after the first one (shown last night), although this POS was purchased from the scam site GLOBAL REPLICA. Probably a lot of the old members read this story before, but I publish it to remind members on the need to make rep purchases from trusted dealers. This experiencd forced me to find safe haven in the trusted rep watch sites I now proudly belong. This POS cost me $270 & is called a Piece Of Shit because it was when it arrived (after I had to hand the FEDEX driver the money order). The Sub was a mess: an hour marker had fallen out and was floating underneath the crystal, the stem on the crown was BENT & could hardly move; when wound BOTH watch hands moved together, etc. To make a long story short: (1). the bank issuing the money order would NOT cancel it; (2). I originally called GLOBAL REPLICA, only to have the voice on the other end tell me to hang up and call again, which I did to no answer; (3). numerous LETTERS, EMAILS, and probing from Better Business Bureau could not elicit any response from GR. I lost, but luckily my friend the jeweler/watchsmith took it and fixed it up and added the new blue (shark) bezel to it. I keep this as a reminder... . dave:

A true testament to learning the hard way It has happened to só many Most quit the game. Here you still are many years later telling the tale. People who find RWI relatively quickly don't know how lucky they are
