Hmm, you are wrong bro, there are a lot of members who can afford pretty much any watch here but they still buy a rep : ) this is a hobby : )
just cba with all the hyped stuff and how hard is to get it sometimes…
some pieces you get rich people using reps all day long…
Starbucks, green 5711, platonas (oh gosh), Pandas I just assume are all reps… if I can’t get a panda but can get 2 Pepsi, 3 Batman and a RG PP5990 is because that freaking panda doesn’t exist at all at retail…
When the Starbucks launched no one had it at all, I got it retail (because they fuc*ed me over a hulk twice and tried to make it up for it) 1 of only 2 pieces that my ad managed to get and sold it for £20k next day (not blacklisted yet cause of my networking skills =D).. I hated the Starbucks, Kermit every day of the week over a Starbucks \o/.
bottom line is, I know at least 5 guys who had the vsf Starbucks and even had the guts to say they got it from the same ad… one of them has fuc*ng 14 Ferraris… 2 f**king LaFerrari….. for us here in the forum it’s a hobby yes. For some stupid people it’s just a way to show off (sometimes getting hilariously caught).. these idiots try to fake it until u make it kind of practice…I do it cause it’s fun! Way more fun to build a Franken instead of just buying it of shelf.
No showing off, no dick measuring, no profiteering and staff preventing the scammers… amazing! Real people I can say.
I mostly am buying or keeping gen watches for the networking, occasional profit and obv for the ones that are not available as acceptable reps yet, such as RMs, PP 5990, 5712 (available but shit without power reserve), IWC Mojave…, 116506 (shot without the extra weight even the v4s)…
On that PP5990 the profit Will be about £200k minimum…
If you start looking as gen watches as business assets and not hobby it’s very profitable…it doesn’t mean that that guy won’t use reps and anyone that strongly criticise reps are the ones probably here reading it all maybe posting and loving it…
ssshh….. no one can know….!
those are the worse type… trying to pretend..
mill tell people all my watches are fake any day.. and have a laugh…
always remember… the biggest tell in a rep is you.!
