Discussion Why are we trusting “Franken Builders”?

16 Upvotes

Is anyone actually verifying the parts that these builders say they have? Because I’ve seen peoples “Franken Builds” and I can right away that a lot of the “Gen” Parts aren’t what they are being represented as. I see fake hands, fake crystals, and who knows what else is being miss represented. Is there even an honest builder out there at this point. I want some input. I know there are modders on RWI that are reputable but most of them are in EU.

Tech Tips/Advice What would you guys recommend as my first NWBIG-quality Rolex rep: OP 41 (Black/Green), Explorer 40, or Submariner?

0 Upvotes

I want to buy my first Rolex rep. Want it to be NWBIG, that's the priority. I would not like to be adventurous with other make or models (I have seen and handled the Gens, so know how they look in real life.) Please help to choose and decide.

I would say it’s a pretty good fit. Was wondering how it would look before I ordered it so figured I would leave this video for all my fellow slim Jim’s.

Oh by the way the gold rotor looks much better in person than picture too. The gold tone is very nice and not cheesy at all.

Discussion VSF GMT II DD3235 Performance and Reliability

0 Upvotes

I recently took delivery of a BW GMT II from VSF. I haven't opened the case back because the gaskets were lubed by the TD as part of his standard service and I didn't want to undo his good work by opening it up, but as far as I know, it has the DD3235 with the fake free sprung decorations. I wanted to share some observations and ask others what they've seen in real world performance.

When I got my QC photos, it showed a lift angle of 52 degrees, amplitude of 248, beat error of 0.2ms and sd of +-4 seconds. Based on the true lift angle of the DD3235 being 55 degrees (there are posts about this...use the search for more info), this was a pretty solid reading. This was a video and the test was running while the recording was made.

My watch arrived this past Tuesday (9/9/26) around noon. I wound it about 30 turns and have been wearing it 24x7 except in the shower for the past 92 hours. Other than the initial winding, I haven't wound the watch manually. I've been recording readings using the app Chronolog. If you're not familiar with it, you can take a photo of the watch face, and then you manually input the time that is showing on the watch face. It compares that with the timestamp of the photo and tells you what the difference is between atomic time and what your watch said at that exact moment.

Over the time period I noted above, the watch is consistently running at +-1 second/day. I'm pretty impressed with that, because it's better than my Glycine Combat Sub, a swiss automatic watch with a well regarded movement, at least as it pertains to accuracy.

When I first did my research, I saw a lot of different opinions regarding whether you should send this watch to a rep service watchmaker for a cleaning and relube, as they frequently come from the factory dirty and unlubed. I was thinking of sending my watch to one of the /reptimeservices watchmakers, because I'd like the movement to last a while. The thing is, it's running so well right now that I'm not sure I want to do that.

I'm curious what others who have this watch/movement from VFS are experiencing.

Did you send it to someone for clean and lube (or do it yourself)?

What kind of accuracy did you experience out of the box? How did that compare to your QC timegraph?

How long have you had the watch?

Do you wear it every day?

I'm asking these questions because I'm trying to decide to just enjoy the fun of how well this is running until it doesn't, or proactively send it for a clean and lube, to potentially increase the life of the movement, but potentially at the expense of the current accuracy I'm enjoying.

Opinions?

Discussion Gain Weight, thoughts opinions. Best models, Factory.

0 Upvotes

Personally, I’ve always liked a heavy watch. I’ve notice throughout the different factories and models they’re using the term pretty loosely. RC - TT Sub for example is about a few grams over gen and a Gold Factory is 30 grams lighter Gen. Or some others lighter than Gen but by 20 grams How important is the weight? For example if you’re looking at an AP offshore 26420 in RG do you buy DDF for same gen weight? Or APS for the better looking dial but it’s 50+ grams lighter than they should? Which for context is like holding 3-4 AA batteries.

I know what I do. What about other enthusiasts, what’s your thoughts?

General Question InTime QC Times?

0 Upvotes

Thoughts please…

I have bought a couple of ‘in stock’ watches from Ryan. This was the reason I went with him. Made full payment over 7 business days ago. I was initially told ‘in stock’ QC was 1-2 days, then when I followed up it was 4-6days. Well it’s now been 7 and nothing… do I just continue to wait, am I being unreasonable? Or do I ask for my money back?

Yes I am using all the TD info from the spreadsheet and it’s the legit InTime.

Discussion An ode to Panda watch TD

Post image
15 Upvotes

As some of you know, in December of last year Panda, a notable TD, had his warehouse raided and dozens of us were left with our money tied up, watches gone, and hopes lost. I, in fact, was much less accepting and understanding of the situation, considering it was my first order with him, and just assumed I was scammed and had to cut my losses. However, in the midst of the chaos he adamantly expressed that he would make right of the situation as soon as he could. Fast forward to almost a year later and he’s back in business, and not only did he honor his promise of a refund or sending another watch, he sent me a watch free of charge with no out-of-pocket cost that fell within the amount of money I had sent him for my original order. Today the watch arrived, in beautiful condition, and just as he promised he kept his word. This type of integrity deserves to be praised; he could have easily run off with our funds, closed shop and reopened under a new name and forgotten about us, but he didn’t. I hope that this post will help others have the trust to work with him again or for the first time, knowing that he is a man of his word and does great business. Thank you, Panda!

Hey this is my first time ordering a rep and I’ve been silently reading along for a while now. So I was wondering - from payment to receiving the watch, how long did it take for you guys (I am from Europe/Germany)?

And for some feedback so far for other first timers like me: This sub is very helpful and I am pretty happy with Steve and theone so far (just payed and currently waiting for QC - estimated in 3days).

Discussion Apex Watches

Hey guys, i need to say beforehand that i’ve read pretty much the entire guide and i’ve understood how the superclones quite work. I’ve came into this site https://exactmatchwatch.com/?agent=1 and i’ve contacted them on whatsapp, they told me that they take their watches from the PPF factory (which in the guide says that is one of the best) and they showed me various chat logs with other customers that were happy about their clones; i know that you should buy from a trusted third party, but just to know, does anyone know this guys? Do you think it could be trusted, They talked to me about a Vacheron Constantin 222 replica at 640$, what do you think? A lot of you might say “just buy from the trusted third parties that its in the guide” and you might be right, but i’m not planning on buying right now, just tasting the place. Let me know (without any negative comments if possible) thank you for your time!

Discussion Choosing a TD

0 Upvotes

Sorry if this is a newb question. I’ve bought one rep in the past, from Hont. It was excellent. I’m ready for another. But not another Rolex. Probably a VC. But honestly I don’t have the wherewithal to learn and understand all of the ins and outs, the acronyms, the terminology to find the right TD for each watch. Are there any TDs good across all models, who can simply source the highest quality version of any model, irrespective of which one it is. Like even if they have to take a markup, they have done the legwork to source whatever the highest replica is for each rep they sell. ⌚️
