I have about 6 replica watches that have issues. 2 PAMS, 3 Rolex, and a Brietlling. I know they are probably easy fixes for someone that knows what they are doing but I dont know anything about fixing watches.
So I guess my question is what are you thoughts on selling them on the forum? is it allowed? What kind of price point do you recommend? They are mostly Asian movements.

Can I post them all on one thread or is it the same rules that are in REP SALES, one watch at a time?

Theres no problem with selling broken reps on the forum aslong as its fully detailed on what the issue is, albeit that depends on how much you know about the issue.

As for pricing, thats a bit of a vague question.. How can we possibly answer that.
Obviously it depends on the fault and the general condition of the watch.

I would suggest for a minor issue you could be looking at under half what it cost new

So take into account what you paid, example $500

Then take into account its used, maybe has a scrape or 2=$400

Then take into account the fault, what do you suggest this would cost to repair.. Hypothetically speaking lets suggest $80 =$320

Then you have to make it attractive for a buyer to want to repair this... So reduce it some more and you could be at $250

For a movement fault where the movement needs a service or could need replaced, you should be looking about $200

if your reps only cost $100 - $150 there may be some buyer who like to fiddle for learning purposes and may pay $30/$40

In the "replica watch sales" section would be a good start

Theres a list of rules there also. This site is not connected with "REP SALES" rwi has its own set of rules

First up are broken Rolex

Blue - just stopped... when you turn the crown it sounds like it’s working but watch doesn’t keep time at all.

Green - just stopped. When you turn the crown it sounds like gears are grinding. Watch doesn’t keep time.

I’ve had these a while. I’m not sure if the factory or model.
The white is definitely one of my favorites... it works when it wants to. The reserve doesn’t seem to last that long.
The PAM with rubber strap works as it should I just don’t have the thing that goes around the crown.
The PAM without strap between N and W missing the little marker. But works as it should.
