  1. First of all I would like to say hello to all active members since this is my first post here.

    I bought my first replica (Tag/Heuer Carrera) a month ago and didn't really know anything about the replica "scene". I was a bit mislead by the seller who made me believe it had a swiss movement and also a bit overcharged (325 euro). I just wanted to buy a new watch and i liked this design so wanted to see what's it like. When i first held it in my hand i immediately bought it. Few days later i started reading about these watches and found this great forum where I spent a lot of time reading on the movements, modifications, history, reviews etc... and it got me very interested in the technique and watchmaking. I told every one who asked about the watch that it is a replica but people are still impressed how well it is made.

    I see this like a new hobby now and have already a list of what I am going to get next to start a small collection. The guy who wrote this article should come here and spend some time on reading the reviews and all the interesting posts to get a bit more educated.

    Another thing is that i see a discussion about the reasons of buying a replica, everybody has his own reasons and we shouldn't generalize. Personally i don't aim to impress anyone but i can imagine if some people do. Like someone said before, nobody is going to notice anyway unless they are a watch person.
