Would you like to have a business that someone could copy in a very bad way and use your name? I do not think so

that case when a rep watch resisted scratches better than an authentic one...

This Citizen watch is something very close to fifty Fathoms tech... 🧐🧐🧐🧐 on the whole, as a concept, the watch seems interesting to me. It will definatelly attract attention, if this is the purpose of the owner😁😁😁. I'm afraid that as a diver, something is not enough... I'm referring to the fact...

I don't embrace the new collection, I didn't embrace the previous one either! I expected something more exclusive from AP. Now, I see in Code watches everything I see in the majority of watches on the market. And the Royal Oak was absolutely exclusive when it was launched... it seems to me that...

Thanks for this thread @YupyLuk . it is very useful, especially in the current circumstances when transactional systems seem to be so sensitive. I've never had any dubious cases, thank God. It's only now that I realize that I didn't do it right, that I used my cc cards to buy rep watches...

I agree and I don't agree..... current metallurgy and today's technique leave no room for inferior quality (I'm talking about reputable brands). consequently, there is no way that the quality will be lower than in the past.... with the design, yes, I agree. I resonate better with those of the...

eeeemmmmmmm........yes, but you can't guarantee the performance of a vintage watch... with a Mercedes, you go to the service and check it before you buy it. and in addition, you spend money for minimal maintenance, you don't change the engine in it... but a vintage watch, the movement is the...

first- modern, sec-- vintage)) totally agree with you about the vintage daytona. it seems even more delicate, but also with a "storytelling" appeal. you scored very well!!!!!! 🫠🫠🫠🫠😎😎😎😎 Though, I can't help but vote for modern watches. whether we like it or not, they have a much safer...

to be honest, I'm more inclined to save some money, than to contemplate the mechanism, in which I don't really understand anything anyway😂😂😂 when I saw that the difference between Vacheron is 3k-4k between a transparent caseback and a solid one, I said to myself that one has to be crazy to pay...

I thought that it could impact the height actually ... the most rational think that it should be changed only for relatively thin cases. otherwise, with a tall watch, this would turn into a brick with only a few mm more 😁😂 and thanks for the "whole case change thing"... didn't know that there...

yes indeed.... the phase with the height I don't really understand. and what's more, I don't understand why, having such a "generous" height, add a domed sapphire... it might look more elegant with such a sapphire, ok, let's admit... but I think it would have gained a few mm less if be opted for...

I had the same reluctance some time ago. after some research, I came to the conclusion that the most expensive Heuers are worth the price. but the more advantageous line in terms of price, as 3-4k is not really worth the money. because these watches yield a little technically and aesthetically...

overpriced by me!! I might intuit that it's about a genuine Swiss ETA automatic movement for that price. but you can't be sure of that, because these mechanisms are no longer provided for tertiary intermediaries like rep factories. `so, it's more like a lottery. or even worse, you are fooled ton...

no no no!!!! not true!!!! if you know what to get and where from to get, chances are that the rep will serve pretty reliably!!!! take for example the DG2813 mechanism. its cost is around $7 per unit. a rep with such a movement will not cost more than $200 for sure. Though is a fairly resistant...

I have no idea about your watch preferences. and honestly I don't even think it matters much. what is important is the mechanism inside the watch. to avoid a potential repeated disappointment, choose with discernment the movement that will be integrated into the mechanism. Asian 'clone' ETA...
