Any target number might be useful....maybe those of uswilling can donate again if not enough troops can be recruited to get to your goal. Let us know if your are in trouble with the donations.. Come on all. A very worthy cause.
My personal history with EMS is that on its very best day it is incredibly unreliable. I have said it before and will say it again I am sure in the future...best advice I ever got about EMS tracking numbers is......When you get them, write them down or print them out. Then tuck them into your rep watch drawer ( you know you have one!) under some other stuff in the drawer.
And forget about them for 2-4 weeks.
Your watch arrives in the mean time, safe and sound and you've lost no sleep and your blood pressure and heart rate stayed low.
No worries approach.
Count on the EMS number to not work so don't even try it.
Lower your stress, no worries

No doubt a gorgeous strap!! And the Mont Blanc is very cool too. I will need to seek and find the future..... the unknown to me....moneybookers .....and step away from the known past future...paypal.... TTK's stuff is just too cool.
Spend a lot of time reading and learning and not as much posting.... yet. But like the site and will support it when needed thanks for all you do to keep this place running.
A friend of mine bought one of these Genuine white faced, white sub dialed GMT chronos and I got to try it on over the weekend. I must say it is a beautiful timepiece. If the dial color is right the rep looks very good to the gen. Reliablility? Another story to be answered.
I definitely think you are going to want to spend a little, or more than a little time, at this site to research and read what the membership have to say regarding the rep trade. There are many very informative people here. You will gain valuable information and if you spend some time will be able to make a good choice for your rep.
Great to see that this issue is resolved. Eddie comes through big time. Obviously paypal is going to be a thing of the past for ordering from dealers. What about the dealers accepting credit cards? Safe? That makes me nervous.
This is disturbing!! the dealers seem to be under attack and a coordinated one at that. I do agree that this hobby may need to be further 'underground.' And what about the other 'mainstream' sites? Has anybody thought that maybe the word 'Replica' may need to be taken out of the forum name? This raises the profile of the forum on search engines and is very easily found at this time. Paypal is going after the dealers. Will the customers be far behind?
I for one have the 42mm PO from Andrew. Great piece. It was one of my first rep purchases a number of months ago. Since getting into Pams and a Breitling I have been covetting a 45mm. So my vote now is go big...45mm.
Nice choices from a good dealer. Of course, these will only satisfy you for a short while and then you will more choices for your wrist. Then more. And finally......more. When is enough, enough? I don't know, haven't reached my limit.
Great to see the even those Gen watch folks can see the fun and the value in the replica world. I am fairly new to the replica world and am hooked deep in (my bank account can attest to that). Now that I am hookied on rep watches I feel much more inclined to get a Gen watch. Just can't stop buying the great rep watches to save enough cash for a gen right now.
Excellent post. I have been a replaholic for only the past 3-4 months but have learned much from the members of these forums. Your work and efforts are very much appreciated by me. I have seen that me, me, me, now , now, now, 'why isn't this thing perfect mentality permeating the boards. I am not young, but I am fairly new to reps and still feel that these type of people are the downfall of my new hobby.
Thanks for all the work Admin. Time to become a supporter.
