Found it a while ago too, notice they have a section for Fake Omegas. Thanks for the site, I had forgotten about it.

This just cracks me up:

Here's what buying and wearing fake/counterfeit watches really says about the wearer:

1. Poor Grasp of Value - Replicas are made to sell by looking like something far more valuable than they are. They are seldom made for quality, carry no warranty, are made from cheap parts and are usually not worth repairing. They are basically overpriced disposable products, so are a poor value for your money.

2. Lack of Integrity - Those that choose cheap replicas to try to impress others that they have a real luxury watch are using falsehoods to represent themselves. So that makes people wonder what else about how you represent yourself is false.

3. Weak Ethics - Choosing replica watches shows the world that you are willing to support unethical and illegal businesses--not giving a care about the ethics and legalities involved if they get in the way of getting something that you want cheaply.

4. Gullible - Especially where someone unknowingly buys a fake, they show themselves to be easily deceived and someone that throws caution to the winds trying to get a super deal on an expensive item.

5. Isolated - Certainly there are no clubs for owners of fakes. No comraderie among fellow owners. No sharing of tips, tricks and performance issues. No assistance with operation, warranty or repair issues. Fake buyers are on their own with nobody to care, nobody to help and nobody to compliment or encourage them--except for the occasional person you might encounter that doesn't know enough about watches to realize you are trying to 'impress' them with a cheap counterfeit.

Look at #5... If they only knew!

____________

We buy reps because we appreciate the design, we're even anal if they have flaws, we don't get them to get a social position, honestly, all of us can pull reps off, however, if a guy pulls out of a crappy Yugo with spray paint, wearing an old t-shirt with a Rolex Masterpiece on his wrist we can all say the watch is either fake or he stole it.

It was a shock to see a red dial SMP.

REALLY UGLY in my opinion...

The red dial is umm... ugly. I like the "Here's what buying and wearing fake/counterfeit watches really says about the wearer" part. Still good site to see some of the different ones.
