The replica watch industry is taking over the market every other year. I discovered fake watches about 7 years ago and since then, I learned some important lessons. One of these lessons is that a watch enthusiast has to always make his own investigation of the store. You, as a watch enthusiast, have various options. You can either inspect the website of the replica store or search for site reviews. In addition, it is always recommended to talk to your close friends who certainly have had the experience of buying a good or a bad replica watch.
In such a context, I will leave my review of the swisswatch.to here. You might take it as a subjective review, of course. However, you might still find something useful for you. Most novice watch enthusiasts are prone to disregard some important aspects. So, I hope the information expressed here could be helpful for somebody.
About swisswatch.to
Most watch enthusiasts already know that there are different types of replica watches stores. The major part refers to stores that offer a large variety of brands. Sometimes, the amount of available brands is so large that it gets exhausting to find a suitable replica watch. In contrast, swisswatch.to is a type of replica store that limits the brand variety to one single trademark: Rolex. That is to say, watch connoisseurs seeking other brands can omit this site from the start.
According to the name of the store, it gets suggestive that this website focuses on Swiss-made replicas, predominantly. Whether it is true or not, we will discover it in the article. Unfortunately, there isn’t much information regarding the timeframe of the store in the replica business.
Therefore, it is impossible to say if the website is active for a long time or not. However, the vendor makes the promise to deliver replica timepieces created by experienced professionals. Moreover, the vendor takes responsibility for testing each timepiece for quality assurance.
Going into the depth: store replica watch collection
Honestly speaking, I am not going crazy with Rolex replica timepieces. I mean, I truly embrace the brand’s talent and horological achievements. I even have some replica timepieces in my watch collection. However, I leave room for other brands as well. I admire the Vacheron Constantin collections, as well as Patek Philippe. Therefore, I would really like to see some other iconic brands in the listing of this store. As a result, I am not a target audience for the swisswatch.to. If you are a fan of other brands just like me, you might not be the target audience as well. As mentioned before, only Rolex fans might find something suitable on this platform.
Either way, let’s see which Rolex collections can be found on this platform. To discover the site portfolio, you only need to place the cursor on the “Shop” section. This section can be easily found right on the top bar menu, from the homepage.
The “Shop” section opens up into an additional window, showcasing the whole Rolex portfolio. The window displays the listing in an easy and intuitive form since the collections are arranged in alphabetical order. Overall, the store offers 14 Rolex collections, including Air-King, Cellini, Datejust, day date, Daytona, Explorer, GMT-Master, Milgauss, Deepsea, Sky-Dweller, Oyster perpetual, Submariner, and Yacht-Master. Basically, the platform houses all possible replica collections of Rolex.
On the right side of the “Shop” section, you can browse the watches according to gender. “Men’s” and “Ladies” sections will help you go directly to the gender category you need. The last section, “Unisex”, exposes the series available for both men and women.
Swisswatch.to homepage
I couldn’t resist not analyzing the homepage of swisswatch.to. I truly find homepages as being the key elements of websites. Depending on their design and structure, these can either invite the customer to discover more or drive him away.
Speaking about the swisswatch.to, in particular, I have a double feeling. On one hand, the pictures present on the homepage indeed convey that specific Swiss vibe. The watches on the banners look tasty, vivid, and qualitative. On the other hand, the content fragments that are meant to describe the majesty of the replica watches, are partially placed on the pictures.
The problem consists of the color of the texts, which is almost analogical to the color of the pictures. As a result, the text legibility is impaired and it gets hard to read. The white texts are placed on the pictures with white background. Similarly, the dark grey content pieces are hardly readable on the dark grey picture backgrounds.
As far as I could understand from the “messy” content passages, this online store offers a 100% guarantee for its top quality and outstanding craftsmanship. Unfortunately, I couldn’t face up with the rest of the content.
The second part of the homepage features two parallel categories of replica watches. One displays the Latest replica watches and the second displays the Best Selling replicas. Traditionally, the bottom part of the homepage ends up with a section featuring important links to Blog, FAQ, My Account, and Privacy Policy pages.
Blog section
Since I am a fan of the watch industry, I always read the latest news, watch comparisons, brands’ achievements, and all kinds of related content about the horology universe. For this reason, I adore reading articles from different stores’ blogs. Naturally, I wanted to inspect this section on swisswatch.to store, with the aim of finding something actual and new. Regrettably, there is no content available in the Blog section. It is absolutely empty. I wonder Why does the vendor keep this section on the website if he doesn’t actualize it with regular content?!
Prices range
While the Blog section might not be the most important aspect for all watch enthusiasts, the price range surely is. To discover the price range of the swisswatch.to, it is just necessary to click on the “Shop” section in order to open up the page with all replica Rolex items. On the left side, you find the “filter by price” tool. As a result, we can easily see that the price range of this `Rolex replica marketplace is between $139-$1,600.
Starting with the cheapest items, we can take the Rolex Submariner 116610NL Silver-tone 40mm Black Dial as an example. Therefore, for $139, you receive a replica watch with an automatic movement and a 316L band material and case. In addition, the model with an ordinary movement is just daily water-resistant. However, customers can opt for a 100-meter waterproof replica timepiece, for an additional cost. The power reserve for this replica is up to 40 hours.
Further on...
The same watch with the same specs, except for another type of movement will cost you $499. For such a price, the ordinary movement will be replaced by a Swiss movement, providing a more reliable functionality.
The most expensive replica version of this watch is $1,099. For this price, you have a Top 1:1 clone of the genuine Rolex Submariner. The 100 meters waterproof is integrated by default, without paying extra money for the additional service.
The most expensive replica watches from this store refer to the Day-Date series. A replica Day-Date watch with a regular movement is $299. The AAA version is $1,599 and the AAAAA replica is $1,599.
As far as it seems, all the replica watches are on sale. Each replica watch features the “sale” label. Therefore, the regular price of the AAAA Day-Date should be 2,059. But, since it is on sale, it comes for $1,599 only.
Exchange and refund policies
It was surprising for me to discover that the store does not have a separate page explaining the Refund Policies. Usually, the dealers showcase all the specs, so that the customers can decide whether the conditions are acceptable or not.
The only piece of information regarding the refund policy is placed in the FAQ section. Therefore, the vendor informs that he accepts a return within 7 days upon the arrival. First of all, customers have to take some pictures proving the watch’s defect. In case the vendor accepts the error, he will gladly receive the replica watch back for fixing. What is interesting is that the vendor does not give any explanations about a possible refund. All he explains is the return of the watch for being fixed. Therefore, I remained with an unanswered question: how about a refund (not a return for fixing), though?
In the same context, customers might want to return the watch after 7 days. In such a case, the vendor will retain a restocking fee of 10% from the watch price.
Shipping
Similar to the Return Policy page missing, the Shipping page (or any additional info) is also lacking. It is pretty tough to find some explicit information about the shipping specifications, unfortunately. This info is covered neither in the AFQ section nor in the About Us section. Literally, nowhere. Therefore, it is hard for me to say which are possible fees for the shipping. The only tiny piece of information I found says that the shipping can be provided worldwide and it is done fast. No specs about the shipping companies, like DHL, or EMS. No details about the period of shipping, considering the orders from different countries. In conclusion, this chapter is all blurred and unclear.
Payment methods
No detailed information about the payment methods is available on the website. The only thing that suggests to you what payment methods are accepted is the tiny card icons hidden at the right footer of the website. As I could deduct, the store accepts Visa and Mastercard payments, as well as Paypal and String Transfers. In my opinion, the lack of detailed information regarding such important aspects gets frustrating.
In my humble opinion…
The swisswatch.to store is an ordinary replica watch store. I didn’t feel the professionalism that I should feel. The great part of this store is that the homepage looks attractive due to the delightful pictures the web designer has chosen. The menu from the homepage is pretty intuitive and you can easily find what you need due to the organized structure.
On the other hand, I remained with plenty of unanswered questions regarding shipping fees. In addition, the warranty and return policies are written scarcely and incompletely.
Overall, the store is not a scam, and nor is it a bad one. The low-budget and the most expensive prices seem to justify the watch’s quality. However, I would think twice before ordering one, since no clear warranty criteria are explained. As I mentioned from the very beginning, you might take this review as a subjective one. It is absolutely ok. In this context, I can only recommend you to check out some precious stores on best-ranked sources. There, you will be able to see the difference and maybe find something more appropriate.
