Transaction Release

I, as buyer or seller of any products or services on replica-watch.info (hereinafter referred to as “RWI”), fully understand that RWI does not warranty, guarantee, insure and/or have any responsibility whatsoever for any transaction, product, or service sold by, through, or as a result of any contacts or communications originating from the RWI website including, but not limited to, the sale/purchase identified herein. By proceeding with this listing, I fully release, discharge and forever hold harmless RWI, its owners, agents, administrators, employees and staff, and I release them from any and all responsibility and liability for any and all claims, costs, expenses, actions, demands, or damages related to the buying or selling of products and/or services offered in this listing.  By entering into and continuing with this transaction, I acknowledge that I am proceeding with this sale voluntarily and at my own risk, and that I have read the foregoing and fully understand the nature, extent, effect and consequences of its contents.

There's a lot going on so I'll try and break this down. For sale are:

  • RWI Branded Rolex 1016 and 5513 (Version 2) dual sided 28.5mm gilt dials custom designed by me
  • RWI Branded Rolex 1016 watches (using Version 2 dials) - 3 available!
  • RWI Branded Rolex 5513 watch (using Version 2 dial) - 1 available!
  • RWI Branded Rolex 1016 style Pagani modified watches (using Version 2 31mm dial) - 2 available!

Firstly, these are the newer version of the RWI branded dials I created and sold in this thread:


The dials have many improvements, including:

  • V2 is 28.5mm instead of 29mm in the V1!
  • V2 has improved text sharpness over V1!
  • V2 has a double sided dial allowing for use as 1016 or 5513 dial, making these super flexible!
  • V2 is sized correctly to look great when used as a 1016 or 5513!
  • V2 KNOWN FLAWS: on the 5513 side, the "SWISS T < 25" is imperfect, see photos!



Overall, V2 is better in every way than the V1. I also am no longer limiting quantity! Buy as many as you want!

$8 for each dial, plus $5 shipping (still $5 for multiple!) anywhere in the United States


In other news, I've done a few builds with the V2 dials to showcase how cool these can look, and they are also for sale!

Rolex 5513 Build - HEAD ONLY!

It's a 5513 that has a RWI dial. It's the first of its kind. It's also likely the cheapest 5513 you can find. Strap not included, for display only! Enough said.

Breakdown of costs:

$49 - Raffles 5513 case w/ crown and insert
$20 - Rafflestime Bubble caseback
$8 - V2 RWI branded Gilt dial
$15 - Raffles silver benz hands, yellowed
$0 - Shoulderless 20mm spring bars (included w/ case)
$32 - NH35A movement
$77 - My labor

    • Note: Dial feet do not exists on these dials, I used dial dots!
$200 for the watch, plus $10 shipping = $210 shipped anywhere in the United States (specify number 3 when reaching out!)

Rolex Explorer 1016 Style (RWI Branded, Pagani Base) - Straps included!


I theorized in the 1016 thread that a Pagani Explorer would make a great dial swap opportunity for 31mm Rolex 1016 dials. So I had the dials made, they turned out great. Gold hands, lightly aged look amazing and match the gilt of the dial. This is a custom design, custom made dial I spent a lot of time to get done. It has various improvements over the V1 dials I did, and the printing in many areas is sharper and more genlike. I have also done light dial aging in the center of each dial. Very subtle but adds a bit of character! This watch looks amazing! Note: Clear caseback that says Pagani is subtle. One band also says Pagani, the others is a StrapsCo. Very subtle, but still worth noting. I'll toss another picture to show this below.

Breakdown of costs:

$65 - Pagani Explorer (these are now sold out on AliX at that price and going for ~$90 so next ones I make may be more expensive!!!)
$9 - AliX 6mm Rolex Crown
$10 - Custom designed 31mm RWI branded 1016 gilt dial
$7 - AliX gold new style mercedes hands (and one has a Milgauss style orange lightening hand which I thought looked cool, included in cost!)
$0 - Pagani or StrapsCo Band (I'm throwing in the StrapsCo band which is like a $20 value to make this massive thread easier to navigate!)
$20 - Raffles Rolex 18mm Buckle
$74 - My labor

Rolex Explorer 1016 (RWI Branded, Raffles Base) - HEAD ONLY!


Similar to the Pagani, but using the a more correct Raffles base instead, these are more genlike and have the drill lugs, and just look plain cool. These are simply awesome!

Breakdown of costs:

$50 - Raffles Explorer Case set
$0 - Raffles 6mm crown
$32 - NH35A movement
$8 - Custom designed 28.5mm RWI branded 1016 gilt dial
$7 - AliX gold new style mercedes hands
