zztop Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 Hi everyone, this is my first post and I only discovered this site earlier today. I was recently on vacation in India and my cousin gave me a genuine Longines watch which has rekindled my fascination. I've never really done more than day-dream as the prices of the watches worth owning are too high. However, later that day after my cousin gave me the Longines I went to a market and saw a whole slew of replicas and they were so incredibly convincing to look at. I ended up picking up a Montblanc Timewalker SS with black face w/ working chronograph and I spend lots of time just looking at it. I have a feeling the bug has bit me hard, so I wanted to learn more about this hobby and I'm so glad I found you guys. I almost ordered a watch from exactreplicas.com, but decided to do as much digging on the internet as I could just in case it was a scam. I also sent an inquiry by email and no response so that put my guard up even higher. Lo and behold I find them on your scam list, so even before becoming a member you have provided value. I will read as much as I can and "use the search function newbie" before asking any questions (I've read enough to figure that much out at least!). I reside in Canada near Toronto and I see that there are quite a few fellow canucks here - perhaps one day I will join in on a local GTG. Anyways, there's my introduction.

Anyways, there's my introduction.wecome zztop, I'm also new here. my intro was yesterday. I'm from Detroit and we use to go to Toronto 2-3 times a year. We use to hang out on young St, it was a lot of fun. This site is the mother load, the infomation here is invaluable. I also almost bought a watch from exactreplicas. Did some research. OMG there is a complaint board.com with six pages of people who were riped off. Stick with the recomended dealers on RWG. Hope you enjoy your stay here Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
