    Why do u, people, buy rep watches?

    I like the feeling that a replica watch gives me... but I don't accept any replica watch. It is critical for me that it is identical to the genuine one... if it looks different, I don't buy it... also, it's a kind of "easter eggs hunting" for good reps 😂😂😂😂 u never know what u get and where u...

    replacement of solid caseback on a open one in a rep

    guys above have scored everything I wanted to comment on your question... water resistance issues reduced probability of finding the right caseback low probability of finding a specialist to make such changes in a REP... I don't think it's worth it, I would stay with the watch in the form it...

    Rep, ruined my watch perception!

    sorry for the question: what did you expect? )) no offense, truly) but in the end, a rep watch is more about a counterfeit industry) I'm sorry for your experience, it was a big disappointment i guess. but I'm sure that this made you stronger, less naive, and more connected to the real world...

    Useless/Useful complications

    no, I don't use all of them... I buy busy watches because I like their complexity and I get bored of clean dials. on the whole, I don't use the auto watch for anything other than reading time. for the other tasks, I use the digital watch or mobile apps. so, I have no need for complex functions...

    above or below the wrist?

    Does anyone still follow this rule today? I thought that the world long ago moved to the concept of "comfortable watch wearing" over rules that dictate above or below the wrist.... I never wear a watch that is not comfortable for me. no matter what the rules say. I have watches that I wear both...

    Solid vs open caseback

    it depends on the movement for me... I like the concept of an open caseback, but I wouldn't accept any movement through it... I want the open caseback to display me nice and refined movement, not a rude and clumsy one... I don't think I could bear to wear such a watch for a long time because the...

    honest opinion of reps

    I see the replica watches as a hobby for fun and curiosity purposes. so, with such an attitude, it's worth taking the risks in this field... if I wanted a good watch, for which I would be ready to give more money, which would serve me for years to come, I don't think so that I would go for a...

    Bell Ross imitations: opinions, reviews, suggestions

    getting hot in here... @CringeUser I've had reps running on such a Japanese movement. served me for 4 years, gave the rep to my cousin, and still runs ok. it's easily serviced, so haven't had no issues with it as for the Bell ross watches, I'd suggest looking at BR03-92 Heritage PVD black. In...

    Pre-Owned AP: tips to consider

    "Never make the mistake of servicing your AP by independent parties. Especially when u want your bezel to be polished."- so true... my former manager left his AP at an independent watch service. the expert exaggerated with the cleaning and polishing and after a couple of procedures the watch...

    Some crucial truths about replica watches

    no one says all reps are bullshit... the point is to not trust those who promise spectacular quality. the quality of reps are more or less the same, from mediocre to good quality. But not as they claim to be identical, exact copy, mirror etc... Youtube videos show some good examples of...

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

    Saying sapphire is sapphire and steel is steel in both reps and gens is quite fair. First of all, you never can be sure that dealers selling 904 steel is indeed 904. Most probably not. The same is for the sapphire. Dealers only promise it but impossible to check it. So, from this point, one can...

    sapphire or hesalite: why?

    I trust both in terms of scratch resistance and impact. Though, find the Hesalite crystal a bit warmer look which I adore. With regular polish, it looks brand new each time. Owning watches with sapphire and hesalite. The latter have a a bit more appealing look look at this...

    Acetone as a solution for movement cleaning

    Acetone dissolves plastic. It’s unlikely to cause harm to steel. But if speaking about reps, you never know what components manufacturers use during the watch assembly. So I would not take the risk. Even for gens with high-quality materials, this chemical can affect the finish and the seals...

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

    Don’t think this PP would look as stunning with a smaller bezel. I’m inclined to believe that we are sometimes driven by standards to such an extent that we can't accept deviations. If the bezel was smaller, it would look more like a “general” watch, mediocre maybe. Make abstractions form the...

    do you guys admit openly your watch is a replica?

    idk why but i'm not sure that all those admitting so easily here are indeed honest... I can speak frankly about my rep only after making sure that people I talk to have the same position as I do regarding reps... you never know who you are talking to and screaming out loud to the left and to the...
