Hi... This is currently already under check by myself. To protect your NAME and OWN INTERESTS, please remove the tracking number because it will show your name if delivered. You never know who lurk around in these Forums. Shipping Address - I will NEVER get this wrong on the package because we follow WORD for WORD. Common things happened when the rainy weather caused the slips to get wet and letters is illegible. Other than that, 99.999% of all EMS packages reach customers with no problems. CANADA customs has been a little weird too these days. Anyway, I will check on this. Please remain in EMAIL contact. I dont surf the forums daily. Apologies and have a nice weekend CHEERS ANDREW

Dear fellows.. GAZI is a nice guy but this time, the watches are OBVIOUSLY STOLEN and this is NOT OUR FAULT and neither GAZI's fault also. I guess he is panicky and I have already emailed him with the solution of re-shipment but he cover slightly of the costs. As stated on my webstore policy, I take custom risks but STOLEN RISKS, I cannot help. I DID INDEED SHIPPED the watches (See the 300++ reviews and you will know I dont scam!). I have offered to re-ship for partial coverage of the costs of the watches and he is already notified. Admin, I think you can close this thread. Thanks and have a nice day! ANDREW **I HAVE ALREADY EMAILED HIM after this post was made AGAIN and offered him a resolution. Thanks** **Resellers like GAZI do not pay the full webstore price so resellers should also take a fair share of the risks involved.**

Neither am I selling this POS.... The Vintage SD is definitely not close to MBW. Seen a modified MBW Red SUB and SD before. Class act!

He has contacted me. Thanks you. **Think it will be appropriate to close the thread now or maybe after the has paid up** Thanks Have a nice weekend Andrew

Armin reason for asking you to send back is because 45mm PO (The UPO) has a Bezel Pearl which is seperate from the Bezel Insert. There is no way to send the Bezel Pearl because it is attached to the bezel Assembly and not like the 42mm PO where the Pearl is on the Bezel Insert itself. If this case happens on the 42mm Bezel .. I can send the Bezel Insert. but for the 45mm PO, you will need to send it back because the bezel assembly needs to be changed. Thanks! Andrew

Dear ALL. Joshua and I have spoken to Maker about making the FM King Chrono. Now its the deciding moment on whether Maker should go ahead to buy the Genuine to make it. Its a HEFTY Sum of money to buy that. The SS version is already costing about USD15,000 after discount. Yes... STAINLESS STEEL... Gosh.. not even a PRECIOUS METAL. LOL. I believe the Maker will make his decision soon based on input from Angus and some of the other dealers soon. Give all you can... I love this watch though... LOL Andrew

Hi ALL The Updated Dial is on all BREITLING EVO models from the same Maker. The Maker updated the Dial... Thats why. =) So if you buy a Breitling EVO now, you will get the same Updated Dial.. Andrew

Well... SUPER REPS are indeed in the making... in the next few months, there will be some revolutionary movement coming up in the market. I am selling off the Gens as I no longer wear them and I dont see a need to use them anymore. The reps are enough to tell good time and smashing them up is heart breaking for me. =P More reps will be launched in June and you will see a series of reps coming up from June till oct Andrew

FYI, Josh wears a CORUM Bubble (The Chinese 12 Auspicious animals one) or his Hublot Ceramic Big Bang.. =P I am wearing mostly my Breitling SuperOcean Black Dial OR Chopard Gran Turismo XL White Dial. For Genuines, I am selling all of them off. On the list still for sale: Gen Rolex YM (16622) Gen Sub (16610) IWC Da Vinci Complications (Old version in SS) Gen Exp 2 (Black Dial) Gen Rolex FG DJ (Mid Size) Going broke...thats why selling all of them off and wear a rep.. LOL

This IWC Cousteau Diver's is a GEM... You are right on, Pug. =) ANDREW

Dear fellow members It has come to my attention from some members that there is someone in the Forums or maybe more than 1 person who is going around sending PMs and EMAILS in the Forums that they have a website for the members to purchase items: http://www.724buy.com/ This site STOLEN all my pictures, descriptions and also didnt even do a watermark hide job properly at all. BEWARE!!!! I am in NO WAY affiliated to this site and if you are UNSURE next time when you stumble upon a site with my stolen pictures, PLEASE DONT BUY from them. I am sure they are just other scam sites who are out to SCAM unaware customers. Thanks! Have a nice weekend ANDREW email: trustytime@gmail.com webstore: www.ttwristwatch.com

Be careful in VIETNAM There are many watchsmiths who hand made Rolex Cases to look 99.9% like the GENUINE and sell them off as genuine. They are really very BIG crooks. I made a mistake 6 years back and bought a Vintage EXP 2 ref. 1655 case and got cheated. Everything looked so genuine but Rolex Center certified it FAKE. =P Andrew

To be real honest, Angus played a part in the watch construction. He did chip in valuable inputs left by you guys so the Maker improved the watch. Materials wise, this IWC Cousteau needed more tham you think.. The wooden hull is already a great piece of ART. FYI, there is no indicative price as of yet as Maker did not disclose anything other than showcasing the prototype done in 1:1 fashion. =) So dont worry... everyone can still feed the kids and still buy a replica. =) Its 3:45am... I am a little tipsy after a CHIVAS.... LOL... Take care guys... I see you later today! Ciao! Andrew

Hi This Chopard is already AVAILABLE. Its the IWC Cousteau Diver Chrono which is not available yet... I guess feeding the kids is more important. =) Have a good night, guys.. I am turning in.. its 3:39am...over here LOL Andrew

Hi.. They arent really all third world countries. USA is a big market.. thats one thing I dont deny but because of the strict laws in USA (Irony is that USA is also the easiest place to ship in replica items), there arent many wholesalers willing to ship in items in bulk into USA. I know a few wholesalers in USA but they dont buy in by the containers... only by boxes... Wholesalers get the same prices if I am not wrong. I have spoken to many wholesalers before and they sometimes do have a little better pricing... but think about it... they still need to incur shipping costs.. and mind you.. they are HIGH. These wholesalers buy in BIG volumes so they get good prices.. its ECONOMICS... however risk is inevitable.. So after you add the transport costs and risk costs, these wholesalers will never be able to sell at fantastic prices like the dealers in here. =) ANDREW

Steve About the market forces, maybe I can share with you.. About 80% of the market is wholesale on the Maker side. I can tell you these wholesalers move VOLUME. I have been in contact with Malaysia Wholesalers whom I worked with till today. Their monthly volume is in the range of USD200,000. And that is ONLY 1 Wholesaler in malaysia.. There are about 4 big ones in KL Malaysia. There is no way that the Maker will choke on stocks. The Wholesale market and demand is VERY Strong. Turkey is also one of the BIGGEST wholesale players in the world. They supply alot to the EU side. The retails prices give by the wholesalers to the customers are more Expensive if you were to buy from the dealers in here. You can count on that. Those Wholesalers (like those Malaysia wholesalers I mention).. They will sell at high prices... Imagine they have to take RISKS.. alot of risks.. They ship from China to Malaysia.. they set up stores in malaysia... and they hire many workers to run the stores.. their investment is HIGH so naturally their prices is high... it makes economic sense to sell higher. Even 1 month later, if you roam the markets in China, you will not see this watch... one simple reason... 100% of the volume can still be moved from Internet sales from dealers like us, Wholesalers in foreign countries and other wholesalers based in China. =) The market forces are very very dynamic in this replica industry.. I am sharing only a portion of it to let you see the insight! Andrew

Hi verbal and all.. YES! The Rubber Strap is like the GENUINE.. It has a very sweet VANILLA smell.... so sweet you might see ants crawling on your watch if left overnight on the side table..LOL. The first thing I did was to smell the Strap and it was just so sweet. =) I dont know what they use... =P Andrew

The other 80% market is the WHOLESALE market dedicated to EU countries, Malaysia, Thailand, Turkey... These are some of the BIGGEST Wholesale markets who move alot of replicas. =) I have a feeling that this IWC Cousteau will not be CHEAP but the price will definitely be reasonable. To be real serious, there was alot of work done. Angus can vouch for that. This piece is a GEM. I almost wanted to bring the Prototype home. LOL.. Andrew

=) It happened to many reps because of the small size of the Swiss ETA 2836 and 2824. The main reason for the delay of this Chopard XL Turismo model is because Maker did not have control over the movements and had to buy over them from the TOP Maker in China. Its all about who controls the market. The TOP Maker in China controls all the Asia Valjoux 7750 (28,800bph). Thats why for the delay. =) Andrew

Crystal.. Just to share with you.. The Swiss ETA 2836 or Swiss ETA 2824 movement is TOO SMALL to handle the DATE issue at 3:00. If you do notice, Valjoux 7750 movement is larger and the DATE can be pushed slightly OUTWARDS more to accomodate this rep layout. Thats the reason. Hope you understand Andrew
