Intro to the world of Reps via Steve and TheOneWatches

[Guuulj]

Hi everyone, since I discovered this forum a week ago I've been absolutely taken over by it. Even though I didn't plan on buying a watch in this timeframe, I had to satisfy the urge.
I saw that Steve is held in high regard on r/RepTime and on this forum, thus I ordered an VSF 126610LV today.
I'll document my experience on this thread, so far I've been very happy with communication I had with Steve.

Will do. I gave GL on 5th but it’s still sitting in the warehouse per code.

QC process was smooth, GL on first.

I’ll post pictures once I have it in my hands.

Thanks for the welcome! I made sure to read the rules upon signing.

On 22nd of August I received the parcel with a watch!
After contacting Steve about the arrival, I wore the watch for a day without removing the wrap.

After a day I removed the wrap after deciding that even if something is wrong I won't be shipping it back to China.
As I unwrapped the watch I noticed the bezel is very hard to turn between 9 and 5. After contacting Steve and sending the video, we concluded it's becoming better the more I turn it. We settled on that as it's not requiring any service.
It is not ideal however and I'm unsure whether bezel turning is supposed to pass QA. I didn't receive any video of bezel turning in a batch of QA pics and videos.
All communication was great with Steve, he was quick to respond and help whenever needed.
I will shop again with Steve but I'll probably make sure to include the bezel video in QA as well.
Hope this info helps someone, enjoy your day!

Oh, I forgot to mention the accuracy!

On Steve's video it was +0 / +1 but my experience while wearing is -8 / -10 a day.

You expect a replica Rolex to have a bezel that operates as gen ? You wore the watch unwrapped for a day ?

Of course not, I didn’t want to give that impression.

What I don’t expect however is being afraid of breaking it because of how hard I’m turning it.

I’m talking about pickle jar challenge type of hard.

I wore the watch wrapped for a day as Steve instructed, but unwrapped it because I decided I will not send it back even if defective.

Thank you for your support, my friend, the bezel will be checked to see if it can rotate properly, but usually we don't take video by default, in future orders, if you are concerned about any aspect, you can advance and let us know, and we can provide you with a video or photos to check.
