marlboroman Posted August 12, 2008 Report Posted August 12, 2008 Hi everyone! I'm from Australia and have been looking for a new watch on various websites and I came across some replicas that look pretty good, I think I want to buy a replica Tag Carrera. By the looks of it some fairly good replicas exist or this forum wouldn't be here. Through my travels I've learnt it'll be best for me to learn some stuff off some of you before I get my first one. Cheers!

marlboroman Posted August 14, 2008 Author Report Posted August 14, 2008 (edited) Thanks everyone, I just ordered a carrera off King. I guess this is where it all begins? I can't wait to get it. Edited August 14, 2008 by marlboroman
KB Posted August 14, 2008 Report Posted August 14, 2008 G'day MM Yes this is where it begins the problem is though that none of us have ever found out where it ends yet. Welcome to RWG. Ken

trailboss99 Posted August 17, 2008 Report Posted August 17, 2008 Hi mate, another Aussie! The more we get the more whp are up to chat while the northeners sleep. Welcome. Col.
bwhitesox Posted August 17, 2008 Report Posted August 17, 2008 Where abouts in Aussie are you from Tony as I know someone in Melbourne that can help you out.
bluerex Posted August 19, 2008 Report Posted August 19, 2008 I'm based in Sydney, Thanks Hey mate. Welcome to the forum. I am also from Sydney but unfortunately I dont know any rep friendly watchsmiths just yet. If you find one, I would love to hear about it.
gavo Posted August 24, 2008 Report Posted August 24, 2008 Hi Guys, I'm also from Sydney and new to this forum - Over the years I have had many reps mainly from trips to Hong Kong and China but, never a very good qualty rep with the Asia ETA. I have a mate here in Sydney who fixes all of my reps and always does very high qualty work. I have a Navitimer that would only run for about 10 minutes and now it runs for about 40 hours. I just brought my first ETA 7750 Breitling Big Date from a contact that I know in Shanghai for around the USD$300 mark it should arrive on Tuesday so I'm really looking forward to it. The most I have ever spent on a rep in China is about RMB280 less than AU$50 If you are in Sydney and need help with your watch let me know. Gavo
swdivad Posted August 24, 2008 Report Posted August 24, 2008 Welcome MM from an American living in Melbourne!!! Just remember... after the first rep... it's a veritable roller coaster ride! Buy a watch box!
tooler Posted August 28, 2008 Report Posted August 28, 2008 I'm in Melbourne too, just joined up after lurking for a few months, thinking about the new GMT II Ceramic but am not too sure about which movement to get, any suggestions? Also any ideas on a good repairer in Melb?
