  1. Puretime changed sites Pre-Order: PAM382 N Bronzo ZF 1:1 Best Edition on Brown Distressed Calfskin Strap P9000 (Free Strap)
  2. Hi, the trusted dealer named Toro Bravo lists these for sale,. They are on his web site. Altho dealers here wont cheat you, they may just lie to you a little bit. It's still a very shady hobby when you look at it with perspective. http://www.torobravos2014.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=71_97_242&product_id=659
  3. So he says that the pre-order begins in 4 days, and something about the 4 day movement now becoming a 10 day movement ?? Also I see that they are giving a second strap for free with purchase. Can anyone closer to the action on this news fill in some more information? Price looks to be under 500 USD
  4. I would not be surprised at 3 months. Seriously. This is common knowledge. With Ziggy retiring, Vaccum has so much workload. May I just say that genuine watches can go missing in a repair center for 5 months, so what is the problem here? If you bombard him with email, he's just going to add you to his list of people not to help in the future.
  5. After Zig retired, Vaccum became north america's best trusted modder and 7750 repair tech. Expect long waits, but it's worth the wait. The man has a lot of work.
  6. Vaccum is monsterously busy and emailing him is always the best way to go. You can ask The Katt if he is available for this .. he is a great basic watchsmith and trusted on RWI forum for 3 or 4 years now. GKLONER @ GMAIL . COM
  7. Beautiful watch and a nice picture. Here's mine
  8. Here is the story for high-end diver replicas ... they are great for water, but the quality control at the factory can be bad. If the guy in China who assembles your watch leaves out 1 gasket by accident, it does not matter if your watch is supposed to be waterproof. If you pay for a good replica dive watch it CAN be waterproof; they are supposed to be waterproof .. but always check. It is not an expensive test, and the fix for a leaky watch is cheap too IF it is supposed to be waterproof. I swim in the ocean, in pools, and shower will all my diver replicas .. no problem .. but never trust it until you check it.
  9. >>Its not that accurate but the only Ti I have kept Do you mean to say that it's not a super rep, or that it's not accurate at all ?
  10. That's a Guangzhou clone ETA movement. Also, listen to Highoey .. the watch is less than halfway there. You need to source a good $80 low beat gen swiss movement from eBay and replace the crown with a period-appropriate one, then massage the case to make it more believable.
  11. One of the members here spent almost one year developing a web site that lists and compares all the current replica Panerai http://pamguide.info/watches.html
  12. Great work, as usual, Marlin. Have fun learning the craft of engraving
  13. VAC is the best trusted modder in north america right now. His work load is mountainous. Send a watch to him, and just forget about it until it arrives back at your house.
  14. Im sorry you got scammed, but at least you found the Community, and you wont get scammed again. I hope you enjoy your time here. There is a beautiful new Milgauss for sale in the sales section right now. The owner is flipping it, since it doesnt suit him.
  15. Beautiful, Athaya. I have always admired your watchmaking skill. I love your vintage Panerai pieces.
  16. Neither TC or BK are dealers. BK imports normal NoobFactory watches from China, assembles them to his own standards, and sells them "as new" .. TC is a watchmaker of sorts, who is looking to produce the perfect Submariner replica as personal quest. Neither of these guys can be correctly referred to as a dealer.
  17. Things happen. Give them a few days to be back up and running.
  18. Contact Mary and Rochest at watchinternational. They are a small mom and pop dealer. They are happy, normally, to search for parts for people who are not their original customers. I have bought parts for Cartier from them in the past.
  19. I've had one for four years now and while I love it, it beats up your wrist too much to wear every day.
  20. If you want a watch for every-day wear, I can not suggest a DSSD unless you are a BIG GUY. It's a serious chunk of steel.
  21. Today feels right from some Fiddy on limited edition Gunny leather
  22. Email the dealer you purchased from. Explain what broke, and include a picture. Ask to buy a replacement part. Chances are, they can help.
