    Bell Ross imitations: opinions, reviews, suggestions

    Honestly, from all the bell ross collection, I might accept only n the Vintage line and a couple of Aviation instruments (bronze and wood watches, for example). And that’s it. Not the number one fan of this brand. All seem too bold like they are manufactured for people with impaired vision. In...

    Bell Ross imitations: opinions, reviews, suggestions

    why does anyone say here that Bell and ross makes specific military watches? watches like watches. other brands also have decent variants. especially, if you @###IcySpicY### say that you're not ok with the square shape. I dont see much difference in style and design concept between BELL AND...

    shipping periods

    it was terrible during covid period, indeed. even the fastest companies like DHL were delaying severely. some watches I ordered came within a month and cant say the destination was critical: UK to Belgium, which is pretty close. Currently, all I order via internet, watches, clothes...

    do you guys admit openly your watch is a replica?

    such a hot topic here... I resonate with both those who are honest and those who are reserved... im always inclined to say the truth indeed, but when I see the faces and the reactions and the comments that are like bullets towards me, I prefer staying quite. let them think its a gen the less...

    Rolex or Grand Seiko?:D

    trying to not read others' comments to keep a neutral and objective position. In my view, GS has done great work along its way, and it can compete with Rolex without any reservations. great calibers+movements, great design, though the design is to individual taste. What I see in Rolex, is a more...

    with 95% similarity of reps, would u still opt for a gen?

    not all people buy reps because they are cheaper than gens. Me, for instance, have bought reps for my brother. He isn't mature enough for a gen as he is only 17. I dont wanna spend money on a watch that im sure he will not take care off and most probably will want another one within a couple of...

    timepiece or statement piece?

    it depends on the limits of the "statement" concept... if statement= flamboyance and overpowered design, than no, I dont stick to such watches, if the "statement" accepts exquisiteness through minimalism, than yes,"statement" is for me

    sapphire or hesalite: why?

    Honestly, I couldn’t appreciate the hesalite much about a decade ago. I mean, how could a material ranging at 1-2 scores out of the 10 Mohs scale compete with a 9 score one, which is sapphire?! I was sure this material would perform no resistance or readability, being based on plastic...

    is there anything u would change in Rolex vector if u were its CEO?

    Would think of releasing a completely new model, abstracting from the previous designs. Lately, nothing new has been released except for previous model iterations. The marketing strategy would leave the same. I, as a person with some knowledge in marketing, understand and align with its...

    PP 5070: what's so special about it?!

    It probably gained attention due to the unconventional proportions, which were not specific to PP collections at the time of the release. The predecessors and successors were all smaller. Also, the vintage look made its move. using precious metals in it also grabbed value and of course the...

    replica watches criteria for buying

    I rely on a criterion you didn’t mention @cheetahapple : it's the recommendation criterion. All reps I own, there aren’t many, but all of them come from recommended stores. I saw the reps on my friends’ wrists. I inspected them, looked carefully from all perspectives, and ordered mine after...

    800$ for a Daytona rep: is it a reasonable price?

    Great point here You need to first figure out why would u spend $800 on a rep with no warranties when u can have a fairly accurate, good-looking, NEW Tissot or smth similar to serve you longer without any warranty concerns. If u are ready to spend it on a rep, you have to be prepared for every...
