Hello from Italy!

[Booob]

Hello everyone!

I'm from Italy, and I've been collecting good-but-cheap mechanical watches (Orient, Seiko, etc.) for years.

I've always wanted to make a jump in quality and buy some 4 or 5-digit watches, but I always hesitated due to the cost. I can afford them, but I always stopped because, before making the deal, I started to think about what else I could buy with that money instead. I can't justify spending so much on a watch, considering that I wouldn't wear them daily and, after all, it's just a watch.

However, when I was looking around for Rolex watches in the gray market, I started reading about the danger of buying a replica in the gray market, and I found out that some replicas are nearly indistinguishable. I looked into it further, found r\RepTime on Reddit, and then, finally, this forum.

It's been 3-4 months of research, reading, and learning, and, I have to admit, dreaming. I discovered that I can wear watches I've craved for years at a tenth of the cost.

So, it's time to start this journey!

See you on the forum! Cheers

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.
