Ive just received QCphotos from a trusted dealer on here ,everything good , the OMEGA watch im buying is $468 so not cheap , I then asked the question , is the watch been, waterproof tested , he replied NO🤷‍♂️, I would have thought a watch costing that much would include it been waterproofed , do other TDs INCLUDE waterproofing their watches in the price , or am I missing something

Hi and welcome to RWI! Glad you found your way here.

I've read some TDs offer additional services to be paid at an additional fee. You can't rely on the factory's "waterproof" claims. If I were you I'd let it waterproof at a watchmaker near you (if it really is important to you).

Please take some time to read the sticky threads in the new members area (all subsections), learn the basic forum rules and get some very good advice in the process. A number of questions has already been answered there, this is just an example:


As a new subscriber, you've already been directed to this thread, please read carefully and look through the linked additional threads:


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


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.

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.

Just out of curiosity, what do you intend to do with your replica watch - surfing, scuba diving or something else?
