Hey all, That's not me anymore; I sold the site back in May. I removed my name before I sold it but they put it back afterwards and so far haven't responded to my requests to remove it again. It's just another scammy site I'm sad to say. I hadn't updated it in two years and it was getting DMCA notices from Rolex and others on specific pages, so when an offer to buy it came along I was willing to sell. Sorry all, Richard

Any movement on this? I've already cleared it with the wife, just need a date.

Can you be more specific about USPS insurance only covering $50?

Great info Lani, thanks. Patience is a virtue when it comes to replicas. I'm holding out for one with the correct lume and metal surrounds on the dial numerals...

I'm in on this! I live in the Cleveland area but I'll make the drive over (my wife has relatives in Toledo, so it won't be that hard to get the time).

Very sad day indeed. A real passing of the guard. The admin team at TRC were awesome people, I'm glad things will continue here at RWG.

I love Sinn's designs. I think the above posters are right in that they're on the cusp of being cost effective to duplicate. But then we have replica Movados... If there was sufficient interest I'm sure someone would make copies. Sufficient being enough to sell out the first round of production.

As the author of the Replica Watch Report I appreciate the referral! I'm working currently on a new edition with a bunch of new and updated information. It's damn hard when new things keep cropping up I want to include (like the new ceramic Rolex). It's definitely a moving target...

I have the ads to global replicas experiment for several reasons: 1. They pay the bills. Really, Adsense sucks for monetizing replica watches. The Replica Watch Report doesn't make much off of it and the blog makes even less. Notice there's no ads for them on repliacwatchreport.com, nor will there ever be. 2. Obfuscation - I don't want to point any fingers in the direction of our real dealers, for their safety and ours. I get asked DAILY where to buy replica watches. Some people are INSISTENT I tell them where. The global replica thing is a way of eliminating this. The blog has been around quite some time, it's really my outlet for posting subjective opinions on replica watches (replicawatchreport attempts to be objective information). I put the ads on the blog as an experiment in advertising. I don't rave about them or even mention them in posts on the site. If they don't pan out I'll eliminate them. The ads aren't for this community in the slightest. While I do mention the replica boards as a source of information it's nothing that people doing a simple google search wouldn't find, so I'm not "outing" anyone. If you want a true private community RWG would be best served by going private like TRC. Frankly I'm always surprised when someone mentions the blog. It's not really traffic-heavy, nor does it rank well compared to the other replica sites out there (nor is it really updated regularly, or have a working rss feed). It's no "scam", nor does it try to falsify information. It's simply a "blog", don't attempt to read more than that into it.

The spacing of the "10" isn't really noticeable, I mean even having a gen and a rep side-by-side I doubt it'd even be mentioned. Here's my rep:

Awesome work! I'm listening to it now. I've added a link to it to my blog.

Angus has a good point about the crackdown in the replica trade in China and the rest of Asia. It's a known fact that replicas just aren't as "in the open" as they were say two years ago. In a change of policy people are actually getting jail time for selling replica watches. Ask TTK about one of his experiences at the post in Thailand... I think we're seeing a change in the direction of the replica watch industry. Instead of focusing on quantity they'll direct their effort towards quality. As long as forums like this provide a steady stream of customers they'll do alright in the end without the added exposure of volume manufacturing.

I just wanted to mention that any dealer that wants to do an interview please feel free to contact me! I sent out emails but I'm never sure if they get to their destination (or get read).

I recently posted this over at TRC, but since there isn't 100% cross-over: I recently sent out an email to several replica watch dealers asking them a series of questions in the form of an interview. I got a response from Angus that's a great insight into him and his business. Check out the post at my replica watch blog: Swiss Replica Watch Blog. For those who don't know about it my blog is a general information source for the replica watch hobby. It's a lot more opinionated than my other site, The Replica Watch Report, which I try to keep facts-only. Thanks to Angus for being a good sport and answering my questions so completely!

I love it!

I blogged this post. I agree with the overal commentary on this watch, it's the first AP RO I've actually been impressed with. I'm torn over it and the Offshore Chrono over at Sean's site. Lots of goodies all of a sudden! Not just Panerai replica #3,433. It's nice to see a variety of good high-end stuff.

I made a post on my blog about this. My wife's uncle has a genuine double red Sea-Dweller that he wears every day. I finally got a chance to compare it with my MBW DR SD. Man, I kick myself over the bad case back on the MBW. If it was properly engraved it would eliminate the one BIG flaw on the watch. Other than that the MBW is a wonder. Read the post.

Trafficking in counterfeit goods is illegal anywhere. People here just push that little fact out of the way when they buy or sell. Richard

Agreed. Richard Brown The Replica Watch Report

I'd say real as well. The GMT hand is the right width and correct length (And independently set). That alone would let me excuse the questionable bezel markers (could be the angle the picture is taken from). Richard Brown The Replica Watch Report

I NEVER use individual's photos. I do use TTK's pics with his permission. If you do see pictures of yours on my site PLEASE let me know and I'll either remove them or give you photo credits. I'm not out to take advantage of anyone. All the information on my site is freely given. There's now much more free information on Replica Watch Report than there is actually in the book that it started out promoting! And I add as much as I can daily. Yes the information may be basic for many of us long-timers, but there are many new people coming to this hobby (or curse, depending on how you see it) every day. 60%+ of the traffic to my site every day is from new visitors. I post alot of stuff keeping that in mind. I distinctly remember when I first started in this hobby 5 years ago. I was a complete newbie and would have appreciated information that might have been old news for everyone else... Update: Hmm, I thought I had asked Eddie for permission to use his pics but I don't see an outgoing email doing so. I'll ask him now and remove them if he requires it. But Eddie and I have been friends for quite some time. Richard

Posted a new article on the Replica Watch Report: Are Fake Rolex Watches as Good As a Genuine Rolex?. It's basically a discussion on how while a replica watch (even the best of them) may LOOK like a genuine watch it doesn't have the same level of quality control that the genuine watches exhibit. I've also put up a gallery showing off Eddie Lee's awesome Franck Muller piece! RSS Feed is available at Replica Watch RSS Feed

For those of you new amongst us, the Replica Watch Report (http://www.replicawatchreport.com) is an independent web site focused on being a clearing house for information on replica watches. Learn to spot fake watches through articles and photographs. It is also the home site for a book of the same name. Added today: An article on the Myth of Replica Watch Grading. Ever wonder what "Grade A+++" actually meant? Read on! The site is growing by leaps and bounds every month. In April we added the Replica Directory and the Real or Fake category. The site format has changed a bit to a more blog-like style. Look for more frequent updates. Subscribe to the RSS feed to get up to the minute updates! Stop by and visit!

Hi everyone, I've added a new web directory at the Replica Watch Report in order to provide a central location for finding web sites related to the hobby. It can be accessed by going to http://www.replicawatchreport.com/directory. If you have any web sites you know of that you find useful when researching replica watches please drop by and submit the site to the directory. I'll add the site so everyone can know about it. You don't have to be registered on The Replica Watch Report to submit a site, but if you are registered you'll be given credit for the submission. Please don't submit replica dealer's sites though. I'm trying to keep The Replica Watch Report free of any actual information on purchasing fake watches. Google shut my Adsense traffic down this month until I could convince them I was only providing information on DETECTING fake watches, not about buying them... So again, any help would be appreciated. I'd love for the directory to grow to be a well-used tool. Richard Brown The Replica Watch Report
