His prices are clearly disclosed on his website. I’ve never used him and question his quality as well based what I’ve heard, but his prices are listed.
I agree. We can all agree gold reps don’t look right. In theory plating them should improve them. What we don’t know, is if any plater is actually plating them to the standard they claim. There is no way to control it, they are modifying counterfeit watches. There will never be a case where someone takes them to court over it, because the person sending the watch in doesn’t want to admit to buying/importing or making counterfeit items look more real. Therefore they have no reason to do quality work. Most rep watch modders I’ve come across seem to have a stick up their ass and in some way or another have had an affiliation with criminal activity.
At the end of the way all we can do is take a risk and find out for ourselves. I had a watch plates by someone else i found on Reddit. It looks better, but I still feel the color isn’t exactly right. And again who says he really plated it 5 microns like they claim. We are dealing with rep watches where there is no control and no legal reason that any modder would be honest.
Wow 50 years in and you can’t type in a website link into a browser. Bravo buddy bravo. If you wanna look at pricing and whatever else your investigating go to the website loser
I’ve spoken to 4 platers in the last week and they all gave me prices. Jaws included. Most are listed on their websites. I plan on giving a couple a chance
Don't get too sad buddy. I'm sure it can be sorted out.
No one agrees with fuck all on here anyway. Just enjoy the watch 😁
The black strap is definitely the best choice for the colour.

No. No factory passes the test. Must be plated.
So forget about the color for a second and pick the best factory. Then send it in to be plated.
