Newbie here... Finding this to already be a addicting hobby

[OmegaRules]

I am new to the replica watch hobby and as you can see, I have a liking to Omega styles and have already found myself becoming addicted to them. I started with the Omega 50th Ann. 007 and when I received it, I was stunned at how well made it was and the feel of it. I even had a reputable jeweler remove links as I was anxious to begin wearing it and she even thought it was real. That got me hooked line and sinker let me tell you.

Ordered the other two I had been looking at which is the newer style GMT and also the GMT Orange bezel with the stitched rubber band. Both also are great to wear and I now find myself trying to give equal attention to all 3, almost like kids.

Anyway, I wish I had gotten on this site and set up the Tapatalk app on my iPad, iPhone earlier as I am sure I would have learned a lot more before jumping in on my purchases but at least I am happy with what I have received so far and the mechanical aspects of the watch, time keeping and GMT functions are all working well.

Just wanted to introduce myself again as a newbie to this whole replica watch hobby and share my 3 babies with you.

Nice one!

You'll soon have fewer cents in your pocket and a busier mailman...

Wear em well

 

[Thrasher]

Yep you will soon know your mailman first name route schedule and he will be dropping by twice a day if you share a common interest. My mailman and I talk about motorcycle engine technology. I think he knows more than i

Ain't that the truth... I'm feeling the burn in my pocket haha.
I've had about a rep per day lately.

Lol, but remember what another correspondent said on another thread: its a marathon not a sprint...

I seem to be learning that quickly. I have a Rolex DeepSea on the way now.

Which one did you get?

 

[dragonman4]

Nice. I love the 50th anniversary. Have one from WBK that I'm now selling because the DSSD makes it feel so tiny now haha. You'll see what I mean once you get yours.

Nice, you're switching it up from the omegas already. I really like your black seamaster. I think it's an absolute classic.

 

[OmegaRules]

Hello Malevolent. I'm actually awaiting the DeepSea with the half blue face. Should be a fun watch to wear.

Nice, I like your style. I'm also an Omega man. I have a gen SMP 300m and a rep 45mm CrPO. Got a 42mm V5 PO on the way and will be getting a 45mm blue TiPO (w/ blue strap) and an LMPO if they really are coming back. I'm just obsessed with the PO tbqh.

 

[OmegaRules]

Thank you all. I am excited to see that my Rolex DeepSea Sea Dweller DSSD has already made it to the U.S. Yay! This will be my first attempt at using the EMS service so fingers crossed it clears customs as well. DHL however was super fast!

Nice

Is the TiPO the one with non working sub dials? Do they do a working one?

The blue bezel/dial one is the TiPO -- chrono or non-chrono. BP's version has the faux hour/min counter. Marvellous Replica does have a version with the working right subdial but it's minutes instead of mins/hours, and it's not a great rep from looking at it (pearl, case dimensions, etc.).

Would love to pick up a TiPO with a fully working chrono but it doesn't seem there's one on the market, at least a proper one. Real shame cause it's a stunning model.

I hate to break this to you bro but you need to be a little bit more careful about showing the display casebacks of Omegas with Co-axial movements to anyone who even has the slightest interest or knowledge about Omega.

Real Co-axial movements have black escapements and barrels that are super easy to tell. You don't even need to be an expert who memorized how the movement looks like or with a loupe to tell a rep from a real Omega.

Lovely ones!

Just received my DeepSea today. Excited!

Thats why if it has a clear caseback (except for the 111), I skip it.
