Edwin the girl in your tagline is way hotter. I could watch those things bounce for hours and hours... Now I need a bib.

At .99 cents and 4 bucks shipping he should have set the auction at .99 buy it now.

Here in the US I had one that said that for two weeks. No status update, then one day it magically shows up while it still showed a 1000 miles away. Good stuff... I just figure if I haven't seen it for a month then I'll start to worry.

then again...panerai doesnt have a big second hand...maybe I should get one of those my next purchase

Yes, you should get two or three or a dozen. You can never have enough Panerai's.

The point is, it is definitely a lack of QC up front, which is what you think that you are paying for. And you ARE paying for it.

In actuality, you are the QC and it's up to you to discover the problems on your own time and at your own expense.

While I can only say I've also had good experiences from the Cartel... Well sometimes not so good up front but always corrected and resolved. I pay for this. I know I'm paying for this because I know where I can find the same watch for cheaper from other board listed dealers. Often times I'm ordering for a friend and I don't want to chance anything. Now I'm wondering how many of those submariners have swinese movements? How much insurance was I really buying?

My point to all this is most people don't have the means to track down the swinese movement. Often times it doesn't fail until allot later leaving us a$$ed out. Think about all the money that's saved if only one out of every ten buyers actually complains. It's cost effective to service the crap out of the one person, send them whatever to keep them quiet. Make the profit on the other easy marks. Here in the US contractors have done this for years. They use subpar building materials. Payoff inspectors. When stuff eventually has an issue it's long after the fact. In the small percentage they do get caught they simply fix the problem no questions asked. At the end of the day they are still money ahead. This is the same thing I feel the cartel is doing.

Nice GMT! I didn't realize how nice of a watch it was until seeing your pictures. Rep's are wonderful for test driving. I never knew how much I like Rolex's until I test drove a sub. Now I'm counting the days until I can afford to pull the trigger on a gen.

but you also can check this forum if you like .... www.pmwf.com

Nice link, good info. Thx.

is she hot or is she not hot? pics or it didn't happen!

Just as I figured... It was only a matter of time until someone asked for pics. Man I love this place!

Bring on the PICS!!!

Welcome Mark,

Rep's are like Klondike bars. Once you start you can't stop.

I'm down in Gilroy and haven't started looking for a REP friendly service yet. I'm still in acquisition mode here. IF you guys run across somebody please PM me the info and I'll do likewise.

Cheers

She has been pissing me off lately, says i am spending too much time in my quest for the Bentley 6.75 big date!!! I feel the Bentley is worth spending time on!!!

Anytime not spent on them is too much time. Well time spent shopping for LV or Gucci they always seem happy with. Anyhow they'll be patient for a little bit then they start pouting like a five year old. They are all sisters.

Anyhow I find it funny as I look at some of these HOT pics how hot they look to us. It's to bad they wear us down so bad that we don't even want to touch them at the end of the relationship. Shot once I'm out I don't even care who else happens to be shagging them. "glad it's you and not me buddy".

GREAT THREAD!! Made my afternoon.

And so goes another instance of one of the most popular question's on the board. I'm not actually sure an answer exists to your question. I've read some folks like the Ferrari 008 for it's accuracy?? I don't know much about that though. My suggestion would be to search up on PAM's and pick something you enjoy. Also read this, good stuff. Search around, lots of good information.

RWG is the best due to members like these. What a great community.

I hear you on that. Can't stop looking - searching for info and purchasing. I'm a total noob and now have four reps. Three bought off RWG. By the way the three off RWG exceeded all expectations and the forth from _____ slightly disappointed me.

RWG:3 points

Cartel: 1/2 a point

Game over, RWG wins.

The man who keeps it all running smoothly.

Thx for the link. I hadn't seen that post yet. Great information.

If it is a working chrono it will not be an asian 21j and vise versa, I am sure there are working chronos out there that are cheep but not sure if you can get one under $150, how about looking here a post about reps under $150

I saw that last night when I found the first address j88time.com ended up going over to Andrews site. Which incidentally had gone down earlier in the day. Just my luck it all blew up while trying to order my friend a watch. Go figure.

Have you checked the links section in this forum?

Both links have been updated.

Josh changed his AGAIN. its now www.pc88clone.com. Opens up to perfect clones.

Interesting, the address given for Josh's new site - http://www.j88time.com/ is now opening to Trustytime,

and the URL for Andrew's new site, http://www.tt88time.com/

opens to what seem to be an identical page.

A server error or a business merger?

Buying from DSN is like playing Russian Roulette with 3 bullets in the cyclinder. 50/50 chance something isn't kosher. Uncle Jay had issues, I had issues (which were taken care of but still, the number of issues shouldn't have been there) and if you do a search of them, you will be able to read up on them. Search under my name and Uncle Jay's.

Appreciate the info. This DSN deal really sucks as he's the logical choice for a noob who's ready to pull the trigger on that ultimate 111H. I guess I'll keep watching the board to see if something pops up from a member. hopefully he comes back around. crap...

any ideas on a cartel h series to use as a base?

I wonder why he is called a "trusted" dealer..?

I've been really considering a DSN purchase. I just don't know another way to get a passable rep without having to mod. I should rephrase and say not having to mod immediately after receiving. Maybe that's the only way to be done correctly? I don't know. I will say that every negative DSN story has some sort of positive ending. In this case DSN offered not so nicely to refund the purchase. I could think of worse endings. Sorry to hear about your troubles farquar.

i like cobra's

Two words, Bad and Ass. I know these cars get called out but look at it. It's a work of art. The Benz is as well but I've been having wet dreams about the cobra rep's since I was a kid.
