I'm new to the forum, and to replica watches, but have been reading as much as I can for a couple of weeks. This site seems great - really convinced me that a rep was the way to go. I never thought I'd learn so much about movements, etc. That said, I have a question before I dive in to start purchasing:
I prefer metal bracelets, but I have large wrists (just under 9" circumference). Virtually every (gen) watch I've purchased, I need a bigger bracelet than the standard size. But up to this point, all my watches have been quartz, sub $500 watches, and most manufacturers will just give extra links for free, probably due to cheaper quality. How does this work in the rep world? Obviously, the structure is different, and I've read posts from other large wrist users complaining about not being about to get extra links.
After-market bracelets really are not an option, as I want watches that are as close to genuine as possible, and that includes the bracelet insignia, design, etc. I suppose purchasing genuine bracelets for the watch is an option, but it seems ridiculous to shell out hundreds of dollars extra just to replace a bracelet that is a half-inch short. Can extra links be ordered with the watch, commonly? If not, what do other forum members do as I'm sure that I'm not the only one with this problem.
