  1. Hi! Just came back from a fortnight in Thailand and I have a couple of hints on finding replicas. Bangkok: Most street markets will sell very low quality replicas. I wouldn't bother to look for anything good here. MBK has countless stands and stores selling lots of replicas. Someone reported they would show non branded replicas on the counters and then bring out the real replicas upon request... nope. No problems on showing their stuff, almost everything in plain sight. Better quality replicas might be stashed away, though. I was looking for a good quality SteelFish SuperOcean, and the only place I found one was on the 3rd floor, stand 3B 12F 1, a stand named "Na-Ri-Ka"... coincidence?... The SFSO's weren't "available" at first, and after discarding almost everything else on display, the girl "manning" the stand (Noi?) said she could source some. After waiting for about 10 minutes, two puppies showed up, a white faced and a black faced. Good quality replicas, no doubts there: no arrow shaped seconds hands, correctly applied hour dots (not white, but not that greenish either), good heavyweight bracelets... Thing is, in the 10 minutes it took to get the SFSO's, I had fell in love with the fabulous Sinn replicas she had on display. After a bit of bargaining, I ended getting a U2 for 5000 THB (around 120
  2. Hi! Thanks a lot for the replies! I guess I'll risk it! Oh, and I'm with Thogaa: the world needs a Ploprof rep! Cheers!
  3. Hi! First post here! Hope someone can help me... I've been thinking of getting a Longines Evidenza on the Bay, but I'm really afraid I'll get scammed into buying a replica for gen money... So, my question is: are there any good replicas of these watches out there? Because if you google it, you'll find lots of sites with the whole Evidenza range available, but none of the "trusted" dealers on the forum have them. On the other hand, some prices on the Bay just seem to good to be true (1100$US for a new Evidenza Chrono!?), but are being offered by Platinum Sellers! So, to cut it short: have you seen anything out there that could pass as gen Evidenza, or only cheap quartz reps? Cheers!
