How about ordering under my name with spelling mistakes? Then they will nog be able to send me a registered letter as my name is not the same as the name that the watch has been sent to. Any idea?

yes, until AP got a new CEO... But I must say, I am a big fan of AP, as well as I'm a fan of Hublot. Though, Hublot's alinghi version does look better than AP's does. I think AP's Alinghi looked too much like a toy watch.

It looks hot!

UPDATE: Hont sent me pics: Evertything is as I asked, except for the dial, he used the dial with the white outer markers @ 3 instead of the red. I asked him to change that and then he can ship! Caseback is stainless steel, though, without the XXXX/1000 engraving, no big deal I think. Strap is right, case is right, bezel is right, everything else as asked.

taka over at RWI will be selling datewheels as per gen hublot, black & white

my first purchase from PT was with WU, no problems at all

I think Guru from RWI/RG has got a modded HBB All Black with a swiss Valjoux. You'd look it up. It definately works

yes, if you need parts for a hublot go with tony @ asian7750

concerning the UK adress: I'd be interested as well. There is an option, that's called UKpostbox.com , check it out. I know a member on RG who has positive experience with this service. Would be great to see this work. Or how do you think to get a uk adress? I'm interested.

I've talked to my lawyer and sent a registered letter to the rolex lawyer, I said I didn't had the intention of buying a rep etc, that I had no clue it was a rep and that if it was a rep I immediately wanted them to destroy it. that's summarized what I wrote them. never heard of them and eventually received both rolexes from eurotimez via the UK.

where are you located deniz? why should they keep a strap?

Xyster, I thought about that when it all happened, and it surely was real... I looked up the lawyers name & company adress, the letter from the customs was definately real, no doubt about that. Now it's the second time that I ordered from Asia, I'll see what it'll give... Ordered from Hont, hopefully it will come true. This time it's only 1 watch, last time it were 2 (the ones that got seized). I asked Hont to spell my name incorrect on the package. So if they try to send me a registered letter, it won't match my ID, so I won't be able to receive it. regards

The cost of the watch is $350, shipment is $40. And @ Maxman, I already have an extended guarantee on my way from JCB (better not type his whole name)

Hont (hontwatch) does custom HBB orders, maybe you can ask him?! But he's not a trusted dealer @ RWG... I just placed a custom order with him

I just ordered my HBB from Hont, he's saying he would ship it via FedEx or DHL. What do you guys think about this? As I thought the customs control of DHL was more strict than the normal customs. Though, he says he has experience with this. What do you EU guys think?! regards

I just ordered my first Hublot Big Bang from Hont (not a trusted dealer here though), these are the specifications, it's a hublot luna rossa but I wanted this: 1. Full ceramic case with brushed parts at the lugs 2. brushed ceramic bezel 3. sapphire crystal, double AR 4. correct dial with the red outer markers @ subdial @ 3 5. black datewheel with white numbers 6. strap with the thin vertical lines with the Luna Rossa print only on one side (as per genuine) 7. stainless steel caseback (not the black ceramic) with the Limited Edition (XXX/1000) print 8. asian 7750 with 21,600 bph 9. bezel protector should look like this: gen pics: I also have a genuine LE Luna Rossa box on my way, so together it should be it! will post pics as soon as I can, hope to receive it in a couple of weeks.

well, you have to own a gen AP... sorry for the confusion

It's possible to buy a gen AP box from AP itself, costs about

thanks

bump for pics.... FLAWS: I think I found out the flaws, at some versions, the subdial @ 3 is wrong outter markers should be red instead of white, with the older models, the datewheel is wrong, caseback is wrong, should be stainless steel, bezel should be brushed ceramic instead of polished. And the inside of the strap is wrong, the print is correct, though it's only used at one part of the strap with the gen, replica has it on both sides.

any chance they would replicate this? looks like a great summer sportswatch

a member at repgeek already had positive experience with this, sounds good.

Anyone who has pictures of the Luna Rossa? Any owners? What do you guys think? I know the caseback & movement are wrong, what else do you think? Which dealer should I buy it from? I'd like to see some eye candy!

I'm not willing to take any risks no more from ordering from China. I already got a letter from a Rolex lawyer once, that won't happen a second time. Now, as I do want to order reps from chinese dealers, I'd like to know if there's anyone who has any experience with ukpostbox. Does this work well, what's your opinion on this? Is it safe to let reps go through this? I also think this exists in the US. Any opinions/experiences? I've already used Precious Time & Eurotimez, won't use EUtimez again, bad experience with EUtimez. but how about ukpostbox?
