View Full Version : Replica Watches

A friend of mine lost his Tag. I want to get him a replica until he gets another job and can afford to get another one.
I found www.exactreplicas.com and it seems hit and miss on the experiences from the internet. The worst that I heard was that people never received shit, some said they send you AS CLOSE of a watch as they have and that shipping can take weeks, not days as their website claims.
Is there anywhere else to get replica watch that someone has experience with?
Go to www.repgeek.com
sign up to the board and buy from any of these members who sell under the vendor forum. I was going to order from Trusty, i heard he has the best service. I just wanted something besides my tag since im m.essing it up wearing it all the time (to work)

What is your user name on there? I will use you as a reference.
cheers thanks. I like my friend but his $6,000 tag is his problem. I will spend a couple hundred bucks on him. LOL
Any experience with http://www.amatorywatches.com
Just buy off any vendor on this site and you'll be ok. Don't go anywhere else.
I have a rep rolex GMT if you're interested.

I'm just wondering, if he's the type of guy who spent that type of money on a tag in the first place, would he want a fake (even if its good quality)? This is an honest question and I'm not trying to be a dick. Because with a couple hundred, you can buy some really nice (cheaper brand of course) watches, and these will probably be better quality than a replica. :dunno:

you would be surprised...
and +1 on repgeek
i only ever ordered once from a vendor on there and i got my watch quick, good quality but then he wanted a copy of my id... i told him to f-o
^^ do they come close to the real thing? I'm just wondering because most of the replicas I've seen look pretty cheap. I just suggested it because there are some nice looking watches to be had for a few hundred, obviously not to Tag standards, but decent.

depends, some reps are over $400usd... those are pretty close, the cheaper ones are hit and miss but that repgeek site has reviews on different reps and what flaws they have... some of the "ultimate" ones are really close, just a small difference or two
really it comes down to the movement but even the higher end reps have pretty nice movements in them
the one i got was $100, i said why not haha... it has been running strong for over 8 months and keeps great time

Dude lost he job can't afford another Tag. And here I thought people with $6000 Tags don't need jobs. :dunno:
Are replica legal as long as tell you it is one?
EDIT: NVM, read repgeek.com's legal notice. Any stings on that site?

Since it goes through mail system, if custom picks it up, won't you be screwed with taxes?

This website has some really high quality straps to fit Breitling watches.
I've ordered from this fellow in the past and the quality is comparable to the OEM Breitling straps for a fraction of the price.
He sells straps that will fit the regular tang buckle or the proprietary deployant straps.
www.waccex.de
Shipping is free and it takes about 2 weeks to get here from Germany.

Damn i just went thru that site, its like another realm sucked me in for 2 days, way to much info.
ercchry: mind if i ask which seller did you bought from? they take Paypal ? which watch you get?
I'm gonna try and get me a Daytona (ss white face) and/or a OMega SPO (orange)

pretty sure it was the same one that the cosworth just ordered from.... but since my thread seems to be deleted that i made about him asking for ID after the fact im not 100% sure
i got a chopard mm gt xl, the cheap one (21j movement) then i bought a leather hirsch rally strap from ebay since the ruber one it comes with is ugly, cool thing about that strap is the deployment strap swaps over, but since the watch takes a 23mm strap and that is a odd size i had to get a 22mm strap and there is a slight gap
and none of them take paypal, they take credit threw a 3rd party "legit" merchant
if i do it again i think i am going to give trusty a try
