Hello All,

Just found out about the site from CL. Just wanted to say whats up to all and that I'm a watch fanatic who can't yet afford the real thing and doesn't know much about the replicas. I've recently purchased an Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean and I'm loving it (wear it just about everyday). I paid $280 for the watch from a friend who claims to have a connection with a good replica dealer, but this friend/co-worker is'nt around anymore. Whether it is a watch that cost $2.00 or one that costs $20,000 I love them. Any info you guys or gals can provide would be greatly appreciated and most definitely used. I've got some money saved up and looking to purchase some watches. What site would be a good one to use. I'm looking to purchase a Panerai PAM 162 and perhaps a Rolex GMT Master II (the one with the red/black dial) I think it is referred to as the coca-cola rolex. Like everybody here, I want to make some good purchases and not get jerked. Nice to meet you all and hope to speak with you all soon and perhaps put up some pictures of futu :) re purchases.

Welcome!

check in the dealer section for an A+ list of approved and top notch dealers!

search function at the top is also great to look for your specific watch and/or pics/questions.

Enjoy !!! [smilie=icon_thumright.gif]

That darn CJ, he's always dragging new people home! Seriously, WELCOME, if you like rep boards, you'll LOVE it here. Ask anything you want, we don't take too kindly to flaming around here (unless you wanna get bit by a GOAT :shock: ).

All the dealers here are good, best thing is to read some of the reviews, you'll quickly see patterns developing that should help you decide.

Have fun!!!

Hello Lex and Welcome to the Dark Side!

Please feel free to join in and ask questions. We are pretty friendly and have no problem helping people get their footing in the rep world.

As others have said, I would take a look around and read some of the dealer reviews to find the right dealer. Then take a look at that dealers section on the forum or their website if they have one.

There is an old saying on replica forums....

First chose your dealer, then shoce your watch.

Good luck finding everything you want and have fun.

For my first, GMT Master II SS Black/Red Bezel Swiss Eta 2836-2 + Pam 196 Daylight Chrono Asian 7750 + Ladies yachtmaster SS Rolesium Dial Swiss Eta 2671-2 for my wife. As soon as I get them I will be sure to take some pics and share with you all.

Whats up?

Hello All,
Haven't received my watches yet, but still very impressed with the way that Joshua does business. He has been very quick with responses and is more concerned with safety than speed when it comes to delivery, which I have no problems with. I'd personally rather wait longer to get something that I want then to get something I'm not happy with very fast. I did order a watch display case from Ebay about a week ago and just got it in yesterday. I have some issues with the condition of the box, but the seller seems to be reasonable with what he is going to do. I will post a pic of the case soon.

:wink:

Hello. !!!

That is correct, the Red/Black is the coca-cola,
and the Red/Blue I believe is the pepsi-cola.

Have Fun. !!! 8)

Been away for a while

Hello All:
I've been away for a while and also busy with work, so I haven't had a chance to keep up with the forum. I received all the watches from Joshua and I am very happy with them. Doing business with him is a pleasure. I will be posting pics of the watches soon as I am able to take some decent ones. I am having focus issues with the photos. Also, I am sad to say, I broke my Pam196 band<----Amateur. Fortunately, it isn't a loss because I just forgot to press in both buttons on the latch and just pulled it off, bending the little pin with the spring action on each end. Anybody know where I could get some of those? A jewelry store maybe? Anyhow, I hope you are all doing fine and I will soon be posting pics. Also, the GMT Master II is beautiful, but could anybody recommend some sturdier bands? I feel that the band is a bit light weight and makes too much noise as I move my arm around. I'm looking for a band that is similar weight as my Planet ocean metal band (now this is a band that I love).

Thanks
