Hey Perry,
I bought all my Monacos from other members in the M2M sales section, either here or over at RWG.bz. I tend to buy secondhand reps M2M (member to member) far more than buying new from TDs. It’s a good way to pick up a bargain, and speed up the process (if you buy from members in your part of the world).
As there’s only one no-name factory quartz version of the various Monaco models available, you’ll do equally well asking a TD to source you one, or taking a punt on a DHGate seller (as they’ll be sourcing exactly the same reps). So these are one of those cheap reps I’d have no qualms about ordering from The Gate (probably a cheaper option, given the usual relatively high cost of TD shipping costs, as effectively they’re insuring your more expensive rep against the possibility of customs seizure). You’ll find plenty of Gate sellers who do free shipping.

This guy is a commonly used DHGate seller if anyone wants to try it out. Hanbelson.

That might be a reputable store (I couldn’t comment), but those links are to pretty horrible, vague “Monaco homage” watches.
EDIT: Ah hang on - I was only viewing the first pic in those linked ads and hadn't noticed that subsequent pics show the correct design. My apologies @Geonor.
A quick search for “Monaco watch” threw up a slew of stores selling the correct VK quartz reps. @Gbtr6 you need to look for pics with the logo area of the watch blanked out (to avoid copyright infringement). Ideally there will be buyer review pics showing the actual watch with logos - or you can ask the dealer for a QC pic. Here’s just one random example:

Yeah they can't call them what they are since it's DHGate. Hanbelson and Jason007 are the two biggest suppliers of shitters on DHGate as far as I know. If you check customer reviews you'll see people posting their own pics with the correct logo.
When I noticed that your links also showed the correct Monaco style it was all good. I've ordered from jason007 but got a lemon and decided the whole thing is total luck of the draw, so I still tend to just price compare and go with the cheapest store for Gate fare!
Submariner looks better.
This is a Yacht-Master sir, not a Submariner.
Take time to read the forum. There's a lot to learn here if you're really interested in the topic, but take your time, really sir.
Thanks, I appreciate the feedback. Am interested as I like watches. Probably won't get into the esoteric level as many. But, nice watches I like.

I don't know where you are based but @RepPossessed in the UK sometimes has Tags in stock. You can always send him a private message here and see if he has any or can get you one. https://forum.replica-watch.info/forums/watches.10835932/
They pay the site hosting company to advertise here, and because you're not a paid-up member, you see the ads. It's got nothing to do with RWI.
