Hi, Gang!

What follows are a series of pictures of my very first Rolex Submariner replica, purchased back in October, 2009, from afineluxurytime.com -- which is listed on RWI as a scam site. I paid $220 for it, including s/h. This was before I was even aware of RWI or ever heard the term "scammer." I paid by cashier's check, as they insisted. They sent me watch quickly, and it's actually not bad; has decent weight & presence but no lume at all; however, follow up emails, phone calls, letters to them to ask for more info on it went unanswered. Actually, the watch isn't bad but not worth $220. I've gotten better reps for a lot less money from Robert & Jee, and Emily (at Watcheden). Nonetheless, it was my introduction to the rep world, some other painful & costly scams, which led me here. I guess I was lucky to have received a watch from AFLT.

Hi, rsh!

No, it wasn't between dates; the date wheel itself is a little crooked. The bottom of the date isn't 100% horizontal. I'm wearing this as I type this note; right now, the date is centered in the window but ever-so-slightly tilted to the right. Other than that, the date flips over @ midnight "like clockwork." (pun intended.)
