  1. In the UK there are no specific laws (or loop holes for that matter) that will give the police powers to seize a replica watch as long as you are not invovled in the sale or trade of such items.... My watches are my hobby, I never seek to make profit or gain from them therefore I am not breaking any civil laws and feel quite safe wearing them.

    What makes me chuckle is in other parts of europe you can legally posses firearms (I believe its law in Sweeden for the cadets?) yet you cant wear a fake watch :lol:

    But then again if I could choose between replicas and having the target ranges re-opened in the UK, I know I'd be selling my collection in the blink of an eye to fund the purchase of some new toys..

  2. First, I feel a little uncomfortable, with all the customs issues lately, leaving a paper trail (a long and easily spotted one at that) behind me on every purchase. I know that paypal was very similar, but I just feel like it is easier (maybe not??) Secondly, as much as I trust our dealers (and I do ALOT) I still just haven't stomached putting my credit card out there. As it is they use the "cookie-cutter" software, and I have no idea how easily hacked their sites are.

    Its not illegal to buy or own replicas, so customs shouldnt be an issue.. However I wouldnt use my credit card to directly pay for an order unless it was with a dealer I 100% trusted. We all have our favourite dealers that we know and trust so if you have this kind of relationship there shouldnt be an issue.. I do see how this could be a problem for noob's though, I wouldnt pay a dealer I hadnt used before with a CC..

  3. Last years meet was a great little get together for the UK members and I promised I would organise another southern meet this year; I feel its way over due :)

    I would like to invite all RWG members to join me at The Ring'O'Bells public house on saturday the 31st of march, from about 1pm onwards.

    The Ring'O'Bells

    A newly refurbished pub on the A4 near the Bucks/Berks border called The Ring'O'Bells. There is loads of parking available and easy access from the M4, M40 and M3.

    Address:

    Bath Road

    Knowl Hill

    Berkshire

    RG10 9UU

    I made a a mistake thinking the pub had closed down, its actually being refurbished, and its due to open again during next week so it will all be brand new when we get there :happy:

  4. Only thing that would bug me is the '45' and '15 ' on the bezel are the wrong way round, but its still kinda a fun watch

    You know what, I didnt even notice :lol:

    It was from a Guy in the UK who uses RWI, it was just a cheapo fun purchase as I've always wanted an Emergency but you cant get a really decent replica from anywhere :(

    P.S. its bloody massive, its on par with the fullsize PAM case but its alot heavier than a full s/s PAM with a 7750 chrono...

  5. There are different levels of Delivery, The UK International Signed For service doesnt actually track the package once it leaves the UK and things tend to go missing.. And unless otherwise stipulated it only has a £30 compensation limit.

    ParcelForce however would be a different kettle of fish, you should be able to get several hundred pounds of compensation if its gone missing and they should be able to show you exactly where it stopped being tracked.

  6. It actually was her business...

    How so... My credit card company doesnt ask me what I spend my money on.. My bank doesnt question my purchases when I withdraw cash.. So in conclusion; What buisness does PayPal have asking me what its for?

    They are simply transmitting money for me, its not illigal for me to buy Replica Watches in the UK? Its like the bus driver asking me where I'm going once I get off the bus, I might be going to buy some crack but why should I tell him its not illigal for him to drive me to my local crack dealer? :lol:
