  1. Hi All

    Just looking for some opinions on this topic. I see

    many sales of watches here (Secondhand)

    and noticed that most members are looking

    to get back almost the same cost as buying

    from the dealers.

    Even if a watch has never been worn it is still second hand

    and the resale price should reflect this. Why all of a sudden

    are used replica watches costing so much?

    When I sell a used replica watch I expect to loose at least 30-40%

    on the cost I paid from a dealer, forget the shipping.

    Is the used replica watch market suddenly different from the genuine

    watch market where most original watches loose 30-40% on resale

    from retail, you only have to look at the many dealers selling geniune

    watches to see the amount required for a used watch.

    Regards

    Richard.

  2. Hi

    No!!! I got scammed for $1,400.00 by this American

    guy, called me a Saudi Scammer (I'm British working in the middle east)

    and kept confirming that I recieved the package.

    (No watch inside just an old TV remote) Nothing I could do

    just don't want anybody else from the board getting scammed

  3. Hi All

    Just a general warning.

    This watch is being advertised by Jaid3333 on ebay

    this is the same guy that sent me a TV remote control

    instead of a Omega watch that I won from him!!!!!

    Please just be careful if you are thinking of this watch.

    Regards

    Richard.

  4. Hi All

    I don't know if anybody else here is interested in pocket watches

    but I just purchased this beauty.

    It was made in 1919 by Rolex and has a 17 jewel hand wind movement

    a solid gold case and a glass vision panel so you can see the time

    without opening the case (Called a half hunter)

    What is also good is that it was hallmarked in Birmigham UK in 1919

    so there no mistake about the date of manufacture.

    Now I just need a good solid gold albert chain, Anyone?????

    Thanks for looking

    Richard.

  5. Hi All

    The white around the dial is almost exactly the same as the original

    and if you look at the second photo I tried to show you the AR Coating

    It's a vast improvement on the previously Bentley, and looks just like

    my original Breitling emergency mission.

  6. Hi All

    Just recently received a Bentley 6.75 from Joshua.

    Really a great watch, very large and heavy, but very

    well constructed.

    Keeping excellent time over the last 3 days (+3/4 sec per day)

    Chronograph functions perfectly all sub dials return to 12.00

    What is also great is the sec at 3.00 and the fact that the big date

    goes from 31 to 01 (As it should) There does not seem to be any problems

    with this movement. I fitted the brown leather strap to match the

    bronze dial, as I prefer leather straps to bracelets.

    One final note the AR is also good (Exactly the

    same as my original emergency mission)

    All in all a really good watch and a valuable addition to my collection

    Richard.

  7. Hi All,

    Just received mine from Joshua

    Wow what a big heavy watch, but excellent

    quality, I went for the bronze dial and was

    not disapointed.

    Been running well now for 2 days +3/4 sec per day

    No problems at all with the chronograph working

    and setting correctly.

    Richard
