What do people think to this Black Bay?

http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Top-...tainless-steel-free-shipping/32549838609.html

Allegedly has a 2824, where as the TD's here have a 2813 for a similar price?

Oh the decisions...

 

[Radman]

2813 is $180 from Td
2824 is $298, I think from TD.
Not worth the risk in my opinion.

Heres the link I bought mine from...

http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Hot-...ity-All-dials-work-Stainless/32518511724.html

i was just happy that the chrono worked and the sub dials moved at all. Ha

Speedy is not that good. I have the same. The subdials don't work how they should.

Can someone please explain what each subdial does?

Is this from the link i posted up a couple of weeks back? Mine gets a bit of action i see people giving it look presumably because of its shape.. just a shame the tachymetre scale numbers have no lume.

Don't worry about customs, they arent watch experts so unless they can tell for sure they aren't going to bin it, iv'e had a bunch of watches show as "handed to customs" but they always arrive.

Not sure how this one made it through customs!!! Maybe because its not a Rolex or not so common Omega? It was not packaged well at all. No bubble wrap, but was sitting in a cheapo girly watch box and the watch came with a watch pin remover tool.

A lot of guys on here have used henry, he has alwasy come up with good stuff, infact the very first post in this thread i think is a black bay from henry..

Yes.
Now i have to clean the dial
Some pics

I saw this from other seller with the same pictures for 43 USD as well.

I still dont know that the GMT hand setting is broken or it is lacking the setting feature. I will tear down the dial side later.

Did you try setting it at the middle setting? I have a GMT II rep that has a middle position on the crown for changing both date and moving the GMT hand. It was a pain in the ass to get to the first few times I tried to do it, but I'm used to it now (and keep it charged).

Sellers reply 'dear friend. Good day... YES. ETA2824-2 movement.Thank you'

Does indeed seem cheap....With Aliexpress money back guarantee, I'm a little bit tempted, and il get something else (An aquaracer or Explorer II) from a TD

Was hoping someone before me had taken the plunge, but I guess not...

Has anyone in the german sepaking countries tried any of these sellers? I'm asking because it seems customs are particularity tough here.

I have bought over 20 pieces on Ali from Germany and none of it got stuck into customs!

There were several watches, belts. Shoes I ordered, but the quality was very bad in about 80% of the offers.
Mostly they send pictures from original watches and say this is the product you would receive!
Had many cases with the sellers and will only buy Watches at our TD's in the future.

All the buyers I preferred on Ali have closed their shops now.

Good from far, far from good!

Ordered this from an AE seller already mentioned. Look back at my posts in this thread.

Watch dial looks nice and I think fairly accurate. Time, day and date functions work. Chronograph dials are adjustable, not sure what the function is!

Case, bezel and strap are very cheap quality (as was the watch). Bezel scratches easily. Strap was a mission to adjust. Case has many imperfections in the shape and Crown looks poor...

So not really recommended.

I have 2 more AE watches to go!

Yes, thanks Very cool watch. I didnt expect the tach to have lume... the way the original is made , they do some special sandwich and it kicks butt and I figured theres no way the rep is going to have it! Would be cool if they figured it out tough!

 

[timeonmyside]

I just received this from one of the guys I bought a watch from on AE. This is going to be the norm soon....

I got the same from one store as well, I wonder if this will keep happening, what a drag

 

[offshoreaccount]

You'd think AE would realize half their revenue comes from rep goods. While they have to put on a face of attempting to crack down on it, they can't be too tough because doing so would cost their business.

 

[gsxin]

I just ordered this:
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/New-...atic-men-watch-GMT-40mm-2015/32524376275.html
Went from $88 to $47 this week
Ceramic Bezel, saphire and the seller sent some nice pictures... so what the heck

 

[FiloViridae]

I've had to do that a couple times.. It is a hassle, but I think it will allow for better products.. Because then you can have a consistent seller. But that's just me..

I see this as a problem for buyers. When a seller sells a $80 product with no photo and no title and your item is not received, there is no recourse at all for the buyer.

I think eventually I will just fly to Hong Kong on my own and buy whatever watches I want
