FAQ for purchasing a Rolex rep?

[childishthing]

First off, "Holy first post Batman!"... I know, I know - I'm a newbie and I'm probably going to ask something that's been answered over and over and over... and over. I used the search feature, honestly.

 

Here's what's throwing me off - a lot of it is terminology on the forums and I just can't find a list of all the acronyms everyone is using around the forums. SB BK SD TC, etc. - which none of which probably matters to me anyway. But who is Josh? Or who is Andrew? These are people you're buying from?

 

Let me start over. A few days ago I decided I was going to get a Rolex replica after a friend of mine purchased a Breitling replica and is super happy with it. He sent me the link to the site, I shopped around, and I think I found what I want. I went to p-cls.com and I like the site, they have good selection, and I really like that they take good pictures - and the prices seem reasonable to me. In addition to being a Rolex newbie, I'm also a bit of a watch newbie, although I've concluded that should it fit in my budget, I would prefer to have a Swiss movement watch. So... $400 for my Deepsea, right? I did some looking around on other replica websites, and I've found the "same" watches selling at both half their price, as well as 3x the price on other sites. I can't tell the difference and it's getting confusing.

 

Should I stop shopping? I have no real reason to buy elsewhere expcept to save a buck, but I just want to know that I'm getting a good deal.

 

Edit: Also, where should I go to find a leather Nato style strap for this Deapsea. The 21mm width is messing with my options.

If something is half price on "other site" then I'd say it's either scam or that you're looking at a different version/movement. Care to share some links so we can help?

Thanks, I don't know a lot of what I'm even looking at and so far I'm pretty set on purchasing from p-cls.com because they take a lot of good photos. I was looking at Perfect Watches, Replica Watchstore, and another one - now I can't find the link, but they were about 1,400. Do you think I should just order from this site, or maybe look at talking to a collector here? This is probably a one-time purchase, but who knows. Just trying to do my diligence; I'd hate to spend $400 and find out that I could have saved $100 or so buying from somewhere else.

This is the watch I want to buy... http://www.p-cls.com/rlsd00008-deep-ssss-swiss-28363135-p-13190.html

Hi and welcome to the form.

Go to the trusted dealer section on this forum and stick to the trusted dealers. Anything $1000 plus is a scam. I know from experience before I found this forum. Do some reading and researching and you will be much happier.
