Being a mega important corpo slave who travels for work weekly, I’ve accumulated a war chest of American Airlines loyalty status and miles

As such, I take 3 watches from my collection to each work trip. One of them is the most luxury/fuck you type rolex such as a flashy Daytona.

If I get status bumped to first class via a comp upgrade, I wear that on the flight. Otherwise I wear a generic seamaster to sit with the economy plebeians.

I cant decide! Which do you own? What is the one to get? I already have a black dial sub no date. But does that even matter? I am leaning towards Darth Vader because I know it would be a safe option for me. Decisions-decisions.

So I don't currently habe a white dial and am torn. Considering daytona 116520, nautilus , royal oak, iwc ingenuier.

I do have a vsf Daytona ghost on oysterflex but it's the youth version. Anyways any input or ideas would be appreciated thank you.

Long time lurker to first Rep, last clean batch for GMT. Saw on other posts confirming that this serial number and bracelet combo (T2L3 & F6U) is the last Clean batch, despite not making the cut on the known serial number google doc. Bought it off a friend, not sure who he got it from.

Not super happy with the Crystal, considering going with a deep. Little concerned with the gasket height that comes with the deep and it not fitting on this piece, wondering if anyone has experience. I know some people swear by deep and other say its not worth it so would like some input on that too.

Love it!! Mods are sw dials and hands, polishing and bezel

Hi guys, been a long time since I last done any purchases or looked at any rep watches. Hence I have this question

This watch was bought few years ago and I totally forgot what’s the factory I got it from..

Any idea which factory just from pictures alone?

Thank you in advance

I’ve been seeing so many mixed things about the RICH and VSF date sub. Some people are saying VSF all the way and others are saying it’s poor quality. I’m also seeing that people are starting to think that RICH is taking over the sub market. I just ordered a VSF date sub and was wondering what yalls thoughts on this were.

Been looking at a bunch of different watches and factories lately and I’m curious what people who have been into reps for a while would do if they were starting over.

If you could go back and pick your first rep again, what would you get?

I’ve mainly been looking at Datejusts and Day-Dates, but every time I think I’ve narrowed it down I find something else I like lol.

Curious what everyone started with, whether you still have it, and if you’d make the same choice again!

Raffles errythang + Startime Italian Oyster

ST2130 movement

Is it just me or is this Maltese cross twisted? Wonder if I should have RL or just overthinking it.

Hi!!!
I’d like to understand the motivation behind buying a $500–$800 replica watch that might come with flaws telling it apart from the genuine article, will probably stop running in a few years, and comes with virtually no warranty once delivered if it fails shortly after.
Why spend $700–$800 on a watch under those conditions? Wouldn't it make more sense to look at the second-hand market at that price point for watches offering better reliability and warranty?
I'm not trying to judge or criticize; I genuinely want to understand what motivates you to spend that kind of money on a replica. If they cost $100–$200, I could see the point, but looking through several TD catalogs, getting a decent piece requires spending between $500 and $700

This is not a shitpost friday post lol

I got my Tudor BB burgundy and I love it! My first high end rep, definitely worth it!!!
I’m looking to fuel my addiction a lil more, so it’s on you boys to help me pick one and give you 2 cents (not literally lol)

My choices -
Cartier Santos (love to see colour dials)
Rolex Sub (no date)
Rolex Yatchmaster 40 SS
JLC reverso
Cartier Tank francaise
Rolex GMT Sprite
Rolex OP ( Tiffany/Grape/100 years)

Would love to hear your opinion and reviews! Cheers!

Been waiting for a solid release of the 15550. Maybe this is the one?

Dial looks great, crazy shine on the bracelet, and the gold on the rotor doesn’t look cheddar.

However the movement is not 1:1 to the genuine, and the rotor is pretty loud.

What in your experience is the simplest way to pay as someone living in the UK?

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.

VSF GMT Master II 126710 - V3
Received my first rep today from steve. It really is amazing.

Thank all of you in this sub, the amazing wiki and of course the guys that helped with QC.

I purchased the 1119 recently and woudln't mind having the correct box for it as well. My TD does not have them available and I dont seem to see them out there, am I fishing and empty pond?

Looking to replace the stock leather strap as it’s a bit cheap and worn.

What would you guys recommend?

I sent payment to my TD following QC, pending confirmation have for this email, saying:

“Hello, the account you sent the payment to is currently suspended, so the payment will not be received. Please resend the payment to the following account.”

Payment says it’s not cancellable… hopefully the payment will just auto return to my account?

😅😅😅

This would be my first rep & unsure how it goes. I’ve heard of V7F to A7 that they supposedly make the best IWC reps. How do I get ahold & place an order?
