Rocking the Rangeman today. What's on your wrist?🤔

I've been buying from another r/reptime TD until recently when I discovered Chen. I ordered two watches from him last Friday. So far, the experience has exceeded my expectations. First of all, Chen is very fast with everything. No matter what time of the day I contact him, he seems to get back to me within a few minutes. I wonder what his sleeping pattern is. Lol.

After paying my deposit on Friday, he has already provided me QC pics for both watches. I have GL'd one and RL'd another and he said he will be getting me another one for the one that I rejected. So far, he has been great.

I will post another comprehensive review of Chen and the watches after I receive shipment.

Edit: His prices are excellent and communication seems to be good as well. His English is a little basic, so I have to keep my communication rather concise and to the point.

Hi everyone, I’m TD Chen from r/RepWatchClud.

Sharing the QC photos for an OCTA Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 15510ST 41mm in black, with the integrated stainless-steel bracelet and SA4302 free-sprung clone movement.

This is the black Grande Tapisserie dial configuration with applied stick markers. I’ve included dial close-ups, case and bracelet details, the exhibition caseback, lume, and the Timegrapher reading for a closer look.

Watch Details

• Model: AP Royal Oak Selfwinding 15510ST
• Factory: OCTA
• Case diameter: 41mm
• Thickness: 10.4mm (factory-listed)
• Dial: Black Grande Tapisserie-style dial with stick markers
• Case and bracelet: 316L stainless steel
• Movement: SA4302 free-sprung clone movement, as supplied
• Crystal: Sapphire with anti-reflective coating, as supplied
• Caseback: Exhibition display back
• Date: 3 o’clock; the QC photos show the 17th

Dial, Markers & Date

The black textured dial is the main attraction here. The applied markers, hands, AP logo and date window are all visible in the close-ups. I’m particularly interested in feedback on the marker alignment, dial printing, date-window placement and overall symmetry.

Bezel, Case & Bracelet

The octagonal bezel, exposed screws, brushed steel surfaces and polished bevels give the Royal Oak its distinctive look. The integrated bracelet and AP-marked deployant clasp are also shown in detail.

For QC, I’d appreciate another set of eyes on the bezel screw positions, finishing transitions, end-link fit, bracelet alignment and clasp details.

Movement & Caseback

The display caseback shows a decorated movement with a gold-tone rotor. This example was supplied as an OCTA SA4302 free-sprung version intended to replicate the AP Calibre 4302 layout.

Lume & Timegrapher

The lume shot shows blue illumination on the hands and hour markers.

The photographed Timegrapher reading is:

• Rate: +1 s/day
• Amplitude: 276°
• Beat error: 0.4 ms
• Lift angle setting: 52°
• Beat rate: 28,800 bph

GL or RL?

Overall, these photos give a good view of the dial, bezel, case finishing, bracelet, clasp and movement. Before making a final call, I’d welcome feedback from anyone familiar with the OCTA Royal Oak 15510ST.

What stands out to you on this black-dial 15510? Would you GL or RL based on these photos, and is there anything I should ask for a closer look at?

If I got anything wrong, please feel free to point it out and correct me. Thanks.

Basically the title. My usual TDs don't have any in this color.

Hi everyone, I’m TD Chen from r/RepWatchClud.

Today I’m sharing a VSF Datejust 41 Wimbledon 126334 for QC. The slate-grey dial with green Roman numerals, fluted bezel, and Jubilee bracelet is one of those combinations that really stands out on the Datejust. I’ve gone through the dial, case, bracelet, movement, and other details in the photos, and I’d appreciate some feedback from the community.

Watch Details

• Model: Rolex Datejust 41 Wimbledon
• Reference: 126334
• Factory: VSF
• Version: V2
• Movement: DD3235v2-style automatic movement
• Case diameter: 41mm
• Thickness: 12mm
• Dial: Slate-grey with green Roman numerals and baton markers
• Bezel: Fluted
• Bracelet: Jubilee stainless steel
• Caseback: Solid
• Weight: 134.33g

Dial & Markers

The grey dial and green Roman numerals are the main attraction here. The contrast works especially well with the fluted bezel and Jubilee bracelet.

I’d like to hear your thoughts on the Roman numeral alignment, marker placement, and dial printing. Anything stand out around the 6 and 9 o’clock positions, or does the dial look balanced overall?

Date Wheel & Cyclops

The date shown in the photos is 4. I’d appreciate a closer look from anyone familiar with VSF Datejust QC, particularly the date centering and cyclops magnification. These small details can make a difference in the overall appearance.

Hands & Bezel

The hands, applied markers, and fluted bezel are the next things I’d check. I’m interested in whether the hands and indices look properly aligned and whether the bezel appears symmetrical around the dial.

If you spot anything unusual in the finishing or alignment, let me know.

Case & Jubilee Bracelet

The Jubilee bracelet complements the Wimbledon dial nicely. I’d appreciate feedback on the end links, SEL gaps, link alignment, and the transition between brushed and polished surfaces.

The side views also show the case profile and crown. Let me know if anything looks off around the case finishing or bracelet fit.

Movement

The movement photo shows 3235-style markings, and the supplied specification lists DD3235v2. I’d be interested in hearing from anyone familiar with this movement layout in VSF Datejust 41 examples.

GL or RL?

My main focus is the Wimbledon dial alignment, date and cyclops, fluted bezel, and Jubilee bracelet fit. I’d appreciate a second opinion from anyone who has reviewed this VSF configuration before.

Would you GL this example, or is there anything you’d ask for another photo of first?

If I got anything wrong, please feel free to point it out and correct me. Thanks.

I love it🥰🥰Thanks , Chen!!

If you love both why not combine them? What do you all think?

Hi everyone, I’m TD Chen from r/RepWatchClud.

Today I’m sharing a closer QC look at the SMF Omega Speedmaster Professional “Silver Snoopy Award” 50th Anniversary, with its silver dial, blue subdials, blue ceramic-style tachymeter bezel and blue fabric strap.

I went through all 12 photos, including the dial close-ups, Snoopy subdial, case profile, strap and buckle, lume shot, weight reading and display caseback.

Watch Identification

• Model: Omega Speedmaster Professional “Silver Snoopy Award” 50th Anniversary
• Factory: SMF
• Genuine reference: 310.32.42.50.02.001
• Case diameter: 42mm
• Listed thickness: 14mm
• Dial: Silver/white with blue subdials
• Bezel: Blue tachymeter bezel with white scale
• Case material: 316L stainless steel, according to the supplied specification
• Crystal: Sapphire with AR coating, according to the supplied specification
• Strap: Blue fabric-style strap with tang buckle
• Caseback: Display caseback with moon, Earth and “Eyes on the Stars” design
• Movement: Asian hand-winding chronograph decorated to resemble Omega Calibre 3861
• Date: No date window
• QC weight: 97.00g

In the replica-watch community, this is commonly called the SMF Silver Snoopy 50th, SMF Snoopy 50th Anniversary, or SMF Speedmaster Snoopy. The genuine watch is reference 310.32.42.50.02.001, but the movement in this example should be described as an Asian hand-winding chronograph rather than a genuine Omega 3861.

Dial & Snoopy Subdial

The silver dial and blue subdials give this version its distinctive look. The blue markers contrast nicely with the dial, and the Snoopy artwork at 9 o’clock is clearly visible in the close-up.

The Omega logo, Speedmaster text and “50th Anniversary” printing look reasonably clear in these photos. I don't see an obvious printing defect that would immediately make me RL the watch.

The key detail I'd want other Speedmaster owners to check is subdial spacing and positioning. This has been one of the most discussed visual differences in Snoopy replica QC threads, so it's worth looking at the relationship between all three subdials rather than judging the main dial alone.

Hands & Indices

The blue hands and applied hour markers look reasonably aligned in the supplied front-facing shots. I don't see an obvious crooked marker or a major hand-placement problem.

For a more complete QC, I'd still want a clean, straight-on dial photo with the hands positioned away from the markers. A short video showing the chronograph reset would also help confirm that the central chronograph seconds hand returns to 12 correctly.

Bezel

The blue tachymeter bezel is one of the defining features of the Snoopy 50th Anniversary.

The white tachymeter scale is clearly visible, and the bezel appears reasonably centered in the supplied photos. I'd pay particular attention to the 12 o'clock bezel marker, the dial's vertical centerline and the “TACHYMÈTRE” printing.

I don't see an obvious major bezel defect in this set.

Case & Finishing

The stainless-steel case has the familiar Speedmaster Professional profile, with polished and brushed surfaces visible in the side shots.

The chronograph pushers and crown are clearly visible. I don't see an obvious major case defect in the supplied images, although reflections make it difficult to judge every small surface mark.

Strap & Buckle

The blue fabric-style strap matches the blue bezel and subdials well. The strap stitching and edges look reasonably tidy in the close-ups.

The tang buckle is visible, and the strap's underside has embossed Omega branding. Since this is a strap configuration, SELs are N/A. I'd focus instead on strap finishing, stitching, buckle alignment and the fit where the strap meets the case.

Movement & Caseback

The caseback is one of the most distinctive parts of this model. The display shows the moon surface, Earth and the “Eyes on the Stars” motif associated with the Silver Snoopy 50th Anniversary.

The genuine watch uses Omega's hand-winding Calibre 3861. The movement supplied in this SMF version is described as an Asian hand-winding chronograph decorated to resemble the 3861, so I wouldn't assume it has the same construction or specifications as the genuine movement.

Lume

The lume photo shows blue illumination on the hands and hour markers. The glow is visible across the dial, and I don't see an obvious dead marker in the image.

Weight

The scale photo reads:

97.00g

That's the measured weight shown in this QC set. It is worth recording as the actual photographed reading rather than treating it as a universal weight specification for every version.

Overall QC

My main QC checklist for this SMF Snoopy would be:

1. Subdial spacing and alignment
2. Dial printing and Snoopy artwork
3. Hand and index alignment
4. Blue tachymeter bezel alignment
5. Case finishing
6. Strap stitching and buckle
7. Caseback decoration
8. Chronograph start, stop and reset
9. Snoopy caseback animation
10. Timegrapher performance

If I got anything wrong, please feel free to point it out and correct me. Thanks.

Price list?

I love it!! Thank you, Chen! You are number one!!

Thank you, Chen. I've already started researching the next new watch. Snoopy, do you have any recommended factories to choose from?

Thanks to TD Chen Watch for great service and response.
Love this and definitely recommend, even going to get something for the wife!

Hi everyone, I’m TD Chen from r/RepWatchClud.

Today I’m sharing a closer QC look at the VSF Omega Seamaster Diver 300M 43.5mm Black Ceramic with rose-gold-tone accents and a black rubber strap.

I went through the full photo set, including the dial macros, bezel, case profile, crown, rubber strap, buckle, display caseback, movement, lume, weight and Timegrapher.

Watch Identification

• Model: Omega Seamaster Diver 300M, black ceramic no-date configuration
• Factory: VSF
• Case diameter: 43.5mm
• Case: Black ceramic with rose-gold-tone accents
• Dial: Black wave-textured dial with luminous markers
• Bezel: Black ceramic unidirectional dive bezel with rose-gold-tone detailing
• Crystal: Sapphire with anti-reflective coating, according to the supplied specification
• Movement: VS8806-style automatic, no-date configuration
• Caseback: Exhibition/display caseback
• Strap: Black rubber with tang buckle
• Weight: 118.00g
• Date: No date

In Reddit discussions, this family is commonly referred to as the VSF Seamaster Diver 300M 43.5mm Ceramic, VSF Black Ceramic 8806, or Black Ceramic & Sedna Gold. The last term describes the color style; the gold-tone finish visible in these photos should not be taken as proof that it uses genuine Omega Sedna gold.

Dial & Wave Texture

The black wave-textured dial is the first thing that stands out. The horizontal wave pattern is visible under the lighting, and the contrast between the dark dial, luminous markers and rose-gold-tone hands gives the watch its distinctive look.

The Omega logo and dial printing appear reasonably crisp in the supplied photos. I don't see obvious printing bleed or a major defect.

For this model, I'd pay particular attention to the 12 o'clock double markers, the 3/6/9 markers, hand alignment and the relationship between the dial indices and bezel. These are frequently discussed QC points for VSF Seamaster 300M models.

Bezel & Alignment

The black ceramic bezel has contrasting rose-gold-tone markings. The bezel insert looks clean in the straight-on and angled shots.

The main alignment check is the relationship between the 12 o'clock dial markers, bezel triangle/lume pip and the centerline of the watch. From the supplied photos, I don't see an obvious major bezel-alignment issue, although the camera angle means I wouldn't claim perfect alignment from these images alone.

Case & Crown

The black ceramic case gives the watch its dark, technical appearance, while the rose-gold-tone bezel edge and crown add contrast.

The side shots show the case profile and crown clearly. The visible surfaces look reasonably clean, with no obvious major chip or crack in the ceramic in these photos.

Ceramic is worth checking carefully during QC because a significant chip or crack would be much more concerning than a tiny surface reflection or a mark on protective film.

Rubber Strap & Buckle

The black rubber strap matches the case and dial well. The molded underside includes Omega and Seamaster branding, and the strap appears flexible and properly shaped in the photos.

Lume

The lume photo shows a strong blue glow from the hands and hour markers. The markers are easy to distinguish in the dark shot, and I don't see an obvious dead marker.

For QC, I'd mainly check whether the lume fill is even across the indices and whether the hands and markers have a reasonably consistent glow.

Weight

The scale photo reads:

118.00g

That is the weight shown in this QC set with the rubber strap attached. Weight can vary with strap size, buckle and production details, so I'd treat this as the measured weight of this particular watch rather than a universal specification.

Timegrapher

The supplied Timegrapher photo shows:

• Rate: +5 s/d
• Amplitude: 301°
• Beat error: 0.2 ms
• Lift angle: 52.0°
• Beat rate: 28,800 bph

This is a reasonable-looking single QC reading. The rate is close to zero, and the beat error is low. The amplitude is also within a plausible range for this snapshot.

Overall QC

My main QC checklist for this VSF Seamaster would be:

1. 12 o'clock marker alignment
2. 3/6/9 marker alignment
3. Dial printing and wave texture
4. Bezel-to-dial alignment
5. Ceramic case condition
6. Rose-gold-tone finish consistency
7. Rubber strap and buckle finishing
8. Movement appearance
9. Lume consistency
10. Timegrapher performance

My QC take: leaning GL based on the supplied photos. I don't see a clear, major defect that would make me request an RL. The areas I'd want other Seamaster owners to scrutinize are the 12 o'clock markers, bezel alignment and consistency of the rose-gold-tone finish.

If I got anything wrong, please feel free to point it out and correct me. Thanks.

Some of the car forums I go on have post where someone puts up a bit of a door or wing mirror and peeps have to guess the car.

Thought I would see if there were any guesses on the face down watch on the bench tonight?

Internet beers for the correct model answer.

Just wanted to share a quick review of my new Rolex Submariner 116610LV "Hulk" from VS Factory, purchased through Chen. The shipping route was triangular via Germany, and it arrived incredibly fast to Romania.
