Hello folks, I'm a new member from the US. I've long been interested in this topic and now it's time to get more involved.
I have been collecting a number of watches for years, most recently good Swiss made ETA based, and a few Soviet and Russian watches.
I've long been waiting for the replicas to catch up and now it looks like they're doing so.
I've placed an order with Ryan, and I'll keep everybody updated as the process goes.
 

P..DR..D

Welcome aboard.

Good luck with your first order - out of pure curiosity, what's your brand / model choice & what did you go for ;)

The payment on my order apparently went through, after a few hiccups. So 3-5 days to QC photos.

I'm new here and this forum is very big! Could you please tell me where "Ryan's section" is? Thanks, and sorry for the inconvenience.

Welcome and enjoy your incoming Daytona.. I own one Russian watch, a Vostok, and its a pain to change the calendar date. All the best.

Thanks for your kind replies. Point of order question. This is just a place for saying hello, right? If I want to continue the discussion with vendor-provided QC photos and my own photos and descriptions of the purchasing process, where is the appropriate form to do this?
This is a big place and it's a bit hard to know the customs right off.

Normally under the vendor section (probably the best place to elicit a response etc) , but just be careful as there are rules around posting of QC photos.

and this was written by the boss man himself

Congrats on your purchase & hope it's what you want.

Ah, I understand. My intent was to really say "These QC photos look great, this is a great looking watch, and the dealer takes the time and trouble to send them." My dealings with Ryan up to now have been great, so far so good.

Ah cool.

Once you've green lighted them (GL'd) post away yeah.
And am sure Ryan would appreciate the bump / nod.

Good luck with the new arm candy :D
