First timer - thinking of a purchase from Tony Chow

[1970steve]

Hi fellow members. I have just joined after getting drawn in to researching the fake Rolex market, finding out about a guy called Tony Chow, and placing an enquiry about buying a Deepsea Blue Dial 116660 D-Blue 1:1 V7.

Looking for a bit of reassurance really that I'm going in the right direction. Everything feels ok just now - I haven't parted with any money just yet and wanted to canvass you guys for some valuable feedback before I do! Am I doing the right thing? Do I need to look out for any potential pitfalls here. Just a bit of general advice and guidance would be truly appreciated.

Also, if any of you people have bought such a model from him perhaps send me or post some examples on here that too would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Stay clear and only use our trusted dealers, but before you even think of purchasing anything I suggest you do some research.
Look for the "Main Forum-New members start here" tab.
Good luck and happy reading,

That's great, thanks. I have been reading bits and pieces and to be honest there seems to be some very valuable guidance on here - so thanks for all the time spent replying with your experiences. It's appreciated.

Am I right in thinking, and reading - that 2016asian is ok to order from?

In generell you should only use forum TDs to buy your watches. I have to say however that I bought several reps over the last year from Tony C and it worked out perfectly. Anyways, save yourself possible trouble and just go with a TD.

Also, welcome to RWI!

Tony is awesome but so is Ryan at Intime

I bought a Noob v7 Submariner 6 months ago and played golf with it on. I guess the shock waves broke the movement as it was rattling like an old set of cutlery and not working. I sent in to Tony Chow to be repaired. It cost me 35 USD to get it fixed plus shipping on a 3 week turnaround. It works perfectly - and keeps better time than it did before. I've read the good and the bad reviews about Tony. All I can say is he was very helpful throughout and got the job done for me. I'm based in the UK..

2 users first posts are pro non-TD. Interesting

Now why do I have trouble believing what you just said . . . :thinking:

Guys, note that Tony Chow is NOT the same Tony from Asian7750.

I would not risk it. Why do so? Any TD here can source the same thing as Tony Chow, who is not a TD. These TD's are tried and tested. If something does go wrong you have back up here.

Yes. But it was a nice first (and only post). [emoji23]
