Happy to find this site

[watchguySF]

Greetings everyone,

I'm happy to find this site. I have loved watches for a long time and just recently discovered the ease with which I could buy replicas. I've only purchased from one dealer at this point and overall I am extremely pleased (Rolex Explorer II, Omega Seamaster, Patek 5740, a lovely Tank Francais for my wife - who was first suspicious and now I can't get it off her wrist - and an 41mm AP). Still figuring out exactly what I like, but I definitely like not overpaying by $10k for a stainless steel mechanical watch that costs $500-$700 to produce!
I'll probably pick up a Sub, a GMT Master, and I am really hoping someone makes a good close of the IWC 41mm chrono. It definitely seems like chronos are the hardest to clone. I was looking at a speedy, and the case looked fantastic but it was very obviously a Seagull movement. It's a pretty movement, but no way it will pass for authentic.
I've been a bit of a stickler for accuracy, so -10 seconds is a bit of an emotional adjustment for me, but I guess I will have to make do.
Thanks to the mods and the creators of this forum. Much appreciated.

Another good thread to read to understand where RWI comes from and some fundamentals is this:

https://forum.replica-watch.info/threads/the-first-constitution-of-rwi.51989/

Most of the information you need to know to start is there. If you're preparing to buy, read the stickies before ordering. When you're finished, you can continue learning by reading the stickies in all remaining sections. If it's stickied, it's important information.

If you intend to sell, read the sales rules and all stickies in the sales section with particular care and make sure you understand each single rule. Sales rules infraction is taken very seriously here. As a new member you are not eligible to sell. Using the sales section is a privilege, eligibility must be earned, make sure you know and understand how.

For anything else, feel free to reach out to @eBoy or me, we're happy to assist, advise, direct, explain. Don't hesitate.

Don't be afraid to post noob questions in the new members area. In doubt, use the flame free zone. If you feel uncomfortable anywhere in the new members area, please reach out to @eBoy or me. Mutual respect is of utmost importance to us. On the other hand, we're grown-ups and are supposed to be able to deal with a bit of irony, don't take it personally, ever, a bit of irony never harmed anyone. If you laugh at jokes, you'll make friends faster.

This forum is a treasure trove of information and benefits from the engagement of all members who take their time to share their knowledge, help each other out and have some fun. We hope that you'll benefit and enjoy this platform as well as contribute positively to it.

If at any point you feel to contribute also on another level, feel free to pm the boss (trailboss99) to become a supporter and get some little perks with the status (editing rights, for example).

Enjoy the forum.

Welcome to RWI Forums and have great fun here.

Which IWC Chronograph are you referring to?

As for the Moonwatch, till today, it is almost impossible to get a 1:1 movement for that so I guess saving up for the genuine is a good idea if you really love a MoonWatch.

In general, replica watches have come a long way since the early days of 2000s till now and improved by leaps and bounds.

Cheers.

Thank you for the welcome. Yes I found that out about the Moonwatch. I imagine the chronographs are difficult to copy. The IWC I was referring to is the new 41mm one with the open caseback:

I am quite sure that Factories will come up with this IWC Chronograph Pilot soon in 41mm.

Stay tuned.

Cheers.

 

[watchguySF]

I figured someone was working on it. Thank you!
