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

I guess posting down here is as good as any place, also with a bit of background, where, how much it cost you and what factory they allegedly were sold for.

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.

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.

The package deal was about 1400 USD for all 3.

I checken the Clean sticker and they seem to use both black and white 3135 stickers.

The paket is not a 5711 it seems to be more looking like the 5811/1G with the new clasp and the movement looks 1:1 with original Patek caliber 26-330 S C. But can find anyone looks as good on you website only with old clasp and order movement from 5711.

You're gonna need better photos for that. For the Submariner you can post the serial number and the clasp code. From first glance they look okay. $1400 is a tad bit steep but fine if you got actual high tier clones.

Thank you, will post later and the assumption was "high tier" clones hence the price. But that is the million dollar question if it is or not. :)

Where I need to be.
How much did you pay for each watch? The AP is a 15510 replica which comes with the wrong second hand and bracelet like all 15510 replicas. The watch doesn’t have the 4302 clone movement from what I can see. As for tiering it’s pretty subjective but I can tell that the AP is a replica instantly and I hope you didn’t pay more than $250 for it.
It does however look decent as a replica from the front, it’s just that it’ll never be mistaken for a gen. But that’s just my opinion. In real life you’re likely to get much more positive responses of course.

Submariner clasp code is F80 and serial number: CM13L905?

@legend @mclarendude, you and the other mods are incredible! I swear, I learn something new daily!

@AndyStar, many people join this forum after being scammed...some have lost money and not received what they were paying for. Yes, it can be an expensive lesson, but you're here now! Stick with the Trusted Dealers on this site, and you'll be ok!

I compared to the 15510 50th anniversary org videos can not see any major difference on second hand nor bracelet? Please share what is different. Attached better photos.

Well if you cannot see the differences, then good for you. But read up a bit more on the 15510 reps and you will eventually come across what I am talking about. But that movement, is definitely wrong vs the gen. It is a miyota 9015 cal. The balance wheel is in the wrong place and the decorations are all off. It is an entirely different movement from what the gen uses. Thank you.
