I decided a few days ago to go with a replica Rolex vs buying a used one. Had been debating between a sub or the datejust II got on some forms and started looking for a TD and not sure what site I went through orginally but after a few hours I found one I was considering. I emailed him back and forward a few times trying to decide what I wanted between the two looking for his input on which would be a more convincing copy because alot of people at my job have originals and know they are going to end up side by side eventually. Anyway ended up decided on the datejust in blue with the jubilee bracelet but before I went through with the order I decided to double check the site I was useing and ended up here and am glad I did because found a few people on here who had a bad experience with the site I was considering. So I joined on here and started looking around for info and am overwhelmed now im not sure who to buy from what I want anymore and am hoping for some feed back.
I have read on here that none of the date just with the blue face the color is off so now I'm back to leaning towards the sub which is fine but so many dealers and with alot of them. I'm not sure who it's made by. The one I was looking at was a noob v9 but then trying to do my homework I came across people talking about having original parts put in by some dealers to fix some of the mistakes on the replica. This sounded great to me but they didn't say the site they were useing just the guys name think it was Josh or Joshua. Then in other forms I saw people recommend having the movement oiled and cleaned as soon as you get it to prolong the life. And that some of the dealers can do this But they didn't name any who could or would. Sorry I'm sure alot of this is in the forms and I have spent most of the night and day digging and just keep running into dead links and having more questions then I started with.
So to summarize I'm debating between the datejust in blue or the sub. So which would be closer to the original between the two. What TD would people recommend for going through and oiling and clsaning and do you think the noob v9 would be able to sit side by side with a original and not be able to notice its a rep. If not what brand would you think or parts need to be replaced to make it look like a genuine and can the same dealer do this or what TD can. I'm. Going to keep digging and if I find my awnsers I'll delete but haven't had much luck yet. Saw some people talking about giving a budget to when you ask for some help so I'd like to get out for around $600 but am willing to go up to around $1000 if I have to. Thanks in advance.
