Hey everyone,

I am new to the board and the whole Replica watches world. I literally come with no knowledge or whatsoever so thaty I dont even know the leading watch brands.
I was browisng vary watch brands and came up to AP. I think it's the best looking watch brand so I thought to get a replica one, since of course I am in no situation to spend over 15K USD.

I have been reading a bit for the past week, contacted a TD (whos name will stay discrete) and wanted to make a purchase. Since I couldn't use with him a credit card or PayPal, I thought I might look for a different TD so I came up to Andrew.

I had no idea what was his website or even how to contact him but I sent him a message on this board and he replied within 3 hours.
After that I contacted him through email and things went really fast.

After browsing Andrew's website, I chose the Royal Oak Survivor SS/RU White VK Quartz Chronograph watch.

I will try and update this post to give you guys the dates and my opinion of the whole proccessing and purchase period.

The Timeline:

1/6/2020 13:21 PM - Contacted Andrew via email the first time
1/6/2020 13:27 PM - Andrew's answer
1/6/2020 15:18 PM - Purchase has been placed and ordered after Andrew checked if the selected watch is availbe.
1/6/2020 15:19 PM - Andrew update me that tracking update and also QC Assurance pics will be sent within 2-7 days time before shipment out
Also, Andrew gives a gauge of waiting time:

QC pics (4-12 days time)
**Please note that popular watch models on waiting list will take a longer waiting time to come in from Factory

Delivery Time (11-20 days depending on country)

**For UK transhipment it will of course be longer - Refer to the UK trans page for more details


So far, Andrew is very responsive and everything looks great.
The only thing I think about is the watch itself beacuse I have never purchased a replica before and never had any "luxurious" watch, so I won't even be able to see any flaws (if there are) so probably for me it will be (or not? haha)

Hope this whole process will help others in the future as well.

Yours,
