Dealers cut and paste competitor's web sites. That's why some dealers throw 100 name tags all over their own watch photos.

I will have to re-read the site.

This watch is too expensive because it has the decorated clone movement. When you can get one in plain Asia clone it will be more reasonable. Also to the guy suggesting you buy a plain gen stainless steel watch for $10,000 instead of a 99% rep for $480 ... Are you insane? Yes. Work hard and save then get completely robbed in a Rolex store. Good plan.

If you are super-worried about an "S" but the rest of the watch is awesome then maybe you should stick to Gens.

There are no high-end dealers in North America. The fastest delivery to you from China is five working days via EMS international courier post. There is a lower-end dealer in New Jersey but all he carries is Asia 21j pieces and battery powered pieces. His name is WBK (Wacko Bird Keeper) .. he can get you a watch (in stock) within 3 days in the USA. Like this: BK and TC are both men working out of the USA but they are not large dealers. They are specialists who only sell a very small range of watches but guarantee their above-average quality. Since they hand-build their watches, you are looking at weeks or months of lead-time and higher pricing due to their handwork.

You should have learned that most replica sites use photos of genuine watches to fool you into buying, then either send you nothing or send you an Asia 21j watch worth about 50 US dollars on a street corner.

No images, bub!!

Love the strap !!

Today it's the white Explorer II I bought from MD2020 ... I guess I dodged a bullet there

The silly part is that no one will question your $20,000 Audemars Piguet or Officine Panerai 127 watch ... but wear a $5000 Submariner and WHOA IS THAT REAL?!@?!?!? Almost any grown adult can go out right now and put a Submariner on their credit card. It's dumb, really ....

A few years ago, I was the RWG forum expert on DSSD watches from all the factories. I have not kept up with them for at least 3 years but looking at this new piece, I can see that all the old flaws are fixed. The most glaring of them were the triangle indicator's shape in the ceramic insert, the pearl, and the terrible shape of the "white gold" hour markers. All in all, this piece is beautiful. I can say that I paid $380 for my DSSD five years ago, with Swiss ETA. This watch is so expensive because Angus is selling it with the 3135 decorated clone movement. If you buy this with Asia ETA it will be a lot less. For a real bargain, watch to see if someone sells it with A21j high-beat movement .. the main dealers will probably NOT do this, since they can really screw you nicely on the cost mark-up of the Swiss or China Swiss Clone.

Look at this web page .. note that this model of Cartier has a no-holes strap, and requires a special order from whomever you buy .... note that the strap is a fixed length for a certain amount, then widens ... this is so the special Cartier clasp can adjust. As for ordering a strap .. thats no secret .. just find one you like, in the proper size for your watch and buy it. You'll need to know the width and the length and then any special needs (like for your Cartier's clasp) http://www.ethan-o.com/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=productdetails&virtuemart_product_id=509&virtuemart_category_id=45&Itemid=163

WOW WOW WOW where did you buy the distressed canvas strap ?

You can never ever trust the factory waterproofing. There is almost no quality control. Always check them. All the "diver" replicas we buy from trusted dealers can be waterproof but you can't trust the factory assembly quality.

I have bought from these people before (as have other Forum members) and they are great http://www.ethan-o.com/ They used-to be named Inspire Workshop They even have a ready-made strap for this watch .. no buckle holes

Beat error is easily adjusted ~ the only comment I have is that on a watch of this level, you will probably want to replace the leather strap. It will feel like vinyl and paper on your wrist. It is the biggest tell for this piece (to a layman, not some ultra-anal forum geek) Invest in a $50-100 gator/croc strap for this and WOW .. it will be a real home run. ps - nice watch

Hey guys ... let's not forget very tough lessons learned. Never over-hype a modder/technician ... it can make them burn out. Does anyone remember the last time I was warning about this --- Of course, a real pro sets up a strict scheduling system so they never have too many watches at once, and then spin out of control ...

To make these kinds of iPhone apps work properly you need a good mic !! Sadly, no app I have seen has been able to display the Beat Error which is very important ... I do not use this particular microphone, but it gives you the idea of what to buy ,... http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/iRigMicCast/

What is an SGW?? Never heard of that person or thing. The ultimate modder/repair guy in north america right now is Vac .. and a great choice for "normal" work is The Katt in Minnesota

I do not understand how you can be here 5 years and still not be able to recognize a scammer's web site. How is that even possible? If you buy anything from that website, five old Chinese men will come to your house and rape your family, then eat them. How much more plain can I be?

TC is not a dealer. He is a watch enthusiast who made it his personal mission to design and build a top-flight Rolex Submariner replica, just for the challenge of making it the best available. He worked with China factories to produce parts to his designs, and he hand-assembles each watch from parts (when they arrive)

TC designs the parts for a china factory to make, and assembles all the parts by hand in the USA, one at a time. You might wait three months for his watch to arrive to you. Is that what you wanted to know?

I had a package sorted through Chicago last week where before, it had always been New York .. it arrived within my expected time-frame.

Intime is a trusted dealer on other forums. Some dealers never feel the need to attach to multiple forums. Some are thrown off of some forums, but remain wildly popular on others

Vac is the best in North America right now. How long did you wait? About three months?
