Hmm,kind of similar to Corgi...on the watch anyway....
I had a gen SS Rolex,i was looking to buy a used Presidential,i typed 'gold Rolex' into google and i think the second hit was RWG1...
I had a laugh at the fact there was a forum online about fake watches as i had always pictured flea market junk i had seen before,when it came to reps.
I joined out of curiosity and was reading all these rave reviews about reps and especially noticed Josh as the dealer of choice,so i bought a rep gold DD for fun really,still expecting junk....
Amazingly enough,it was a great rep,i couldn't believe it....i showed it to my dad and told him it was a gen (he has a gen TT DJ) and he looked it over and was all shocked that i bought this expensive watch,convinced it was gen....
He was so amazed when i told him it was a rep,i gave it to him....he has worn it mainly since (14 months?) and rarely wears his DJ.....
Ended up buying around 20 watches my first month (i think we get carried away),found the Breitling brand,got rid of my Rolex.....bought around 40 reps now in total,decided that the fact that they are fakes does bother me,bought my gen SA and here i am today...
I have my rep BCE (one of the 6 or so i have bought,lol) as a kicker watch,and my rep 127 as i like the ostrich strap i have for it,good watches for rainy days or when at the BBQ....
The best thing about buying reps is that it helps you decide what you really like in a watch without spending gen dollars first...
The forums are great,spend to much time on them,especially RWG1 as its where i started,get alot of pm's from new people to the 'hobby' on other forums,enjoy passing along anything i have learned thus far...
Really look forward to the RWG watch arriving,that will be a keeper,it has some meaning.....
