    Help:3rd round QC for a SMPc

    Actually it is not a minor imperfection. If the quality of photo is better, you will see the alignment of the bezel insert is completely wrong from a meter away. Just have a look at spensertracy's SMP that is the correct alignment. After buying about a dozen reps, this time I really got a...

    Help:3rd round QC for a SMPc

    I just got mine today, got to say I underestimated the difficulty of re-aligning the bezel. No matter how I pry, the bezel won't come off and there are a few scratch on the watch now. Heating with hair dryer doesn't remove the bezel insert either. Guess I am now stuck with this...

    Omega Seamaster Ceramic 300M 41mm Advice Please

    I only got the QC pics at the moment and from my understanding the new policy doesn't allow QC photos on forum. This is very similiar to the one I got in my QC: http://www.torobravo2015.com/image/cache/data/omega/seamaster/OMGS0020/IMG_8940-1024x768.JPG I'll be sure to post the photos of mine...

    Help:3rd round QC for a SMPc

    Honestly you got one of the best rep, I'll accept it straight away. I just ordered one as well and the bezel alignment is way off and there isn't one available to swap that is nearly as good as yours.

    Omega Seamaster Ceramic 300M 41mm Advice Please

    This is by far the best rep SMP I've seen. I just ordered one but seems like the current batch all have issue with bezel alignment. Luckily it is going to be an easy fix.

    New here looking for watch ideas to start

    Hi mate, welcome to RWI. Are you looking exclusively for chronograph watch? Good chronograph rep usually have A7750 which tends to be more pricey and complex. I'll recommend start with \simpler automatic watch.

    IWC Mark xvi

    I think it looks like a standard A21J. It my guess is right, you can probably buy a new movement for less than the service price.

    How's your Tudor Pelagos holding up?

    Got my ZF Pelagos from Psycho, it is a beautiful piece. Just a question for those who own this model, does the bezel insert on yours clicks when you press on it? (It is turning fine but when I press lightly on certain parts of the bezel it depresses and clicks). No big deal but still a bit...

    I fooled an ADs with my replica watch

    It sounds bad to say this but I did on several occassions wear my rep into AD of different brand. E.g. wearing a rep PO into a Longines store or rep Tag into an Omega store but never the same brand, it is just plain dumb to check out a watch in the AD which you already have on your wrist and it...

    First purchase, rude to ask for a discount?

    Frankly, it is unlikely for you to get a discount with your first purchase but there is no harm in trying. Though you might get a discount for your next order if you use the same dealer.

    (TT's) CrPO watch unpacking and review

    So called "swiss ETA", there is no way to tell if it is original or refurbish movement and I'm not planning to take the movement apart due to my lack of skills. Perhaps one of the mods can verify if the movement is real. To me, only time will tell. If anything goes wrong with the movement, I'll...

    The crown is quite easy to screw it on and off, 5-6 turns to screw in completely and no screeching sound when screwing it.

    (TT's) CrPO watch unpacking and review

    The price of the watch is $328 as compare to $288 (V5 PO). It is a really well-made and beautiful watch and it really worth the extra bucks. I won't regret buying this one.
