Disappointed with the quality

My 3rd and last watch from Chazingtime, this time GMT Master II with SS/YG Oyster Bracelet arrived today after 8 weeks.

Really difficult to wind and set time/date, missing the firm click when unlocking the crown to set the watch.

Took me some time to work around but mechanism seems very sensitive, I wont even bother asking for a refund as I can see where that goes.

Most importantly the outer dial doesnt even line up to the 12 and is off centre, which I would have expected the QC process would pick up.

This is the second Rolex GMT with problems, first one GMT II Pepsi Oyster Bracelet and the pins kept falling out of the band so I ordered a new oyster band $180usd at my cost to fix that problem.

At least that seems to have fixed the issue for now, but again at my cost making the total cost for the Pepsi nearly 1000USD.

The second watch is a Rolex Oyster it seems to be holding up for the moment, maybe just steer clear of the GMT’s from these guys.

I would normally expect some better quality management given all the photos they send, but the photos dont give you the complete picture.

Thanks anyway Chazingtime.

The TD has nothing to do with the quality of the watch, the factories do. What factory model did you buy?

YOU should have picked that up in the QC process. How is that off centre? You mean the bezel is off centre?

Dunno it isn’t in the description from Chazingtime communication.

Yeah no offense you picked a mid tier factory. TW+ is not a high end clone factory.

For this model, Clean is king. Then ARF. Then GMF.

Sorry bud but this is why we do research before buying.

Ah my bad. I see you wanted the 116713 not 126713.

Still. I would have gone Clean and the newer generation. Unless the green hand matters that much to you.

Trying to find DayDate for CLEAN
Clean doesn't make Daydates. I suggest you introduce yourself to the forum and do some reading about what the replica game is. You don't understand the difference between a dealer and a factory, you are liable to get scammed. Warning given.

Regarding your Daydate, I will set you on your path. Here's 36 pages of reading.

For alle GMT Master II - Pepsi, Bats, Rootbeer?
Yes I would say you can't go wrong with Clean.

Pepsi :

Batman :

Rootbeer.. the most debatable model... there is a new ARF tungsten version to match the weight of gen, so maybe not better but different to Clean. If it was me I would still pick Clean, but this is why we say there is preferences.


You also need to look at the movement, which is the best copy of the 3285

I won't link the other models, grey/gold bezel and bruce wayne but they're out there you can find them....

Sorry guys I might be a newbie but what is the promoted QC process for??? This watch is not even worth $50 in Thailand. The minute has moves around when I tilt the watch, no wonder I was having trouble setting the time……I have not even removed the shrink wrap from the watch.

I’ve spent over $3k with these guys you would think they would be supportive and give me some service, or offer an alternative replacement. So I recon a refund is totally out of the question here. Chazingtime are gangsters and not helpful at all.

Can anyone please send me a link where i can get a Rolex CLEAN SS/YG Oyster Band GMT II please.
