Hi,

The dealer section may be a little deceiving. It's actually titled "Watches, Clothing & Accessories".

This link will take you right to it: http://www.rwg.cc/forum/230-watches-clothing-accessories/

These dealers are the only ones I would buy from. RWI is another replica watch forum (Replica Watch Info) located here: http://www.replica-watch.info

Another good one is repgeek: http://www.repgeek.com/

Fortunately for you, you've already found the best replica watch forum on the internet. I am a member of all three, but I rarely go anywhere but RWG.

As for the dealers, I am still relatively new to this as well. I've only purchased 5 reps, but I purchased 4 of them through Andrew at Trusty Time: http://www.yourtrustytime.com

My experience with Andrew has been outstanding and I have no reason to buy a new rep from anyone else (the 5th one I bought used from another forum member).

I pasted part of a post I wrote previously to help newbies know what to expect when buying from Andrew below. I hope it helps, but feel free to PM me with any additional questions as well...

PASTED GUIDE BELOW:

Trusty Time is the best. I'm fairly new to this myself, but I've bought 4 watches from him and each one has been an outstanding experience.

Here's his website :

www.yourtrustytime.com

The guy who runs it goes by the name of "Andrew" but I doubt that's his real name. Despite that his English is pretty good and he always responds to emails very quickly.

When I find the model I want, I do a search by price (highest on top). Once I find the one I want, I'll do a search for posts on that watch. I find out whether it's a good replica and if there are any issues. All four of the ones I bought were highly reviewed.

Instead of doing a search using the forum's search engine, I do a search using Google. If you type in "site:www.rwg.cc" then the search criteria, you get way better hits than if you use the forum. For example, type "site:www.rwg.cc Omega Planet Ocean" into Google, and you will get a ton of excellent results. Type the same search in the forum and it's pretty weak. Once you find the watch you want and decide to purchase, here's what you can expect (purchasing through Trusty time):

*****************************************************************************************************************************

1. Place an order through the website. It's a very simple process. I've used the PayPal option every time so I can't speak to the process for paying with CC.

2. I receive a confirmation email within a few hours informing me my order was received.

3. Using PayPal, I then receive another email with instructions on how to pay through PayPal. This email instructs me to send an email letting him know after I make payment, which I do.

4. Andrew responds to that email thanking me and letting me know I will receive the QC email with 24-48 hours.

5. The QC email arrives with photos of the watch from the front, back, sides, bracelet and clasp. There's also a shot of it hooked up to the timegraph and another with it sitting on your shipping form with your address on it. Take a good look at the pictures and make sure you like the way everything looks. He asks that you not post QC pics on the forum, but if you've done your homework on the watch you shouldn't need to. Every watch I've received so far from Andrew looked really nice in the photos, but I've heard other members ask for another watch based on something that didn't look right (pearl alignment, etc). Keep in mind that the photos are very close up so you will see every little fleck on dust or lint. The photos are also taken with a bright light and with a white background so everything looks a little washed out. Don't get wrapped around this. Try to keep your focus on the way everything on the watch itself looks. So far in my experience, every watch looks way better in person that they did in the QC pictures, and the QC pictures weren't bad!

6. Once you decide you are happy with the watch, reply to the QC email letting him know you accept the watch. If he doesn't hear from you within 24 hours he will send the watch without your approval.

7. He then replies to your QC acceptance email letting you know the watch has been shipped and you can get your tracking info off the website. To find it, log on at the Trusty website and go to 'My Account'. There will be a list of your orders with the most recent at the top. Select 'View' next to it and then look down the verbiage (which is usually a copy-paste of the text in your emails). At the end of the latest email, after his signature will be the tracking number. Every one I've gotten has been through EMS so my number always looks like this: EMS: EE123456789CN. This number is also at the top of the shipping form in the last QC pic.

8. I then go to the EMS website to track (http://www.ems.com.cn/english.html). However, it will usually take a day or two for any info to be posted here. There's a little trick with the verification on the tracking page though that took me a little bit to figure out. There's two boxes; the first is 'Shipment Number' which is obviously where you enter the tracking number Andrew provided. The next one says 'Verification' which would normally lead me to enter a CAPTCHA code from some kind of small photo of numbers or letters, but there's not one there. The trick is that you have to click the mouse in that box before the code will pop up! The EMS site has good tracking through China, but will post less detailed information once it leaves the country. If you are in the US, you can enter the same tracking number into the tracking page of the USPS website to get good tracking info once it reaches the US.

9. My experience so far has been really good with shipping times. Usually 7-10 days from the time I replied to the QC email. I once had the package stuck in customs for 5 full days, but even then it still got to me in 13 days total. It's hard, but this is the time to be patient. The watch will show up.

*****************************************************************************************************************************

That's the process I went through on all 4 watches with Andrew at Trusty Time. There is another dealer who goes by "Joshua" from a website called "Perfect Clones" who is as highly reviewed as Andrew. However, once I found a reliable dealer who sends me good watches reliably, I don't see the need to go anywhere else. If you do decide to try Perfect Clones, check out his section here on RWG. I've heard that there are a few scam websites of his. They're called "Perfect Clones" and look identical to his, but are not the same URL and will get you ripped off (yes I see the irony in the fakes of the fake). But Andrew has been solid and reliable, so he's the one I recommend.

rep to vandal for the above post....

a very very helpful post indeed.

i personally prefer RWI.... i think theres a little bit more activity (other than that theres no in my opinion that distinguishes them) and so i stick to RWI because i think theres less going on here.

as for the rest i think vandal covered it all hah

It shouldnt take long mate ..few days maybe.. however depends what you ordered...

 

It may be waiting for new stock or maybe waiting for delivery from maker or searching for one...etc etc

 

Have you emailed Andrew...after this time I would, assuming he hadnt already said it may take a while as he needs to find one or something similar etc

 

What was it you ordered?

 

 

And I am curious how/why you posted in this old thread....
