Hello and happy christmas

I have come over to the dark/light side (depending on your point of view) of gen watches. My interest is almost purely automatics and my collection is heavily biased towards military and divers; subs and sub derivatives are my weakness.

The reason for joining this forum is to get some guidance on buying decent reps particularly vintage sports Rolex. I am wearing a green sub (which i believe to be the real deal and paid accordingly) as I type but am seriously doubting the wisdom of paying for high end watches when decent reps can be found with perfectly respectable ETA's within.

Still struggling a little with the 'fake' label issue and all it entails but when the Swiss watch houses are inflating their prices so much I think their lack of respect deserves a little reciprocation.

You should see the amount of froth, venom and vitreolic posting goes on in the gen watch forums regarding rep watches. It is reading most of a 20+ page thread that lead me to this forum actually - luvin THAT irony!

thanks for listening,

See you on the forum.

Welcome Dudsub! Be your reasons economic, political, or otherwise its nice to see you here!

Welcome dubsub.

you'll find RepGeek a welcoming and enjoyable site with lots of great information and helpful members.

Take your time and read through the threads - there is a lot of info to digest and you will be amazed at the quality of some of the replica watches you'll find here.

We really try to keep our hobby separate from the gen folks and its considered blasphemy to post reps on the gen sites. RepGeek offers a hybrid of homage, gen's, reps and anything and everything in between.

Enjoy the site and nice to have you as a member.

Cheers

dubs-

Welcome to Repgeek- now let the madness begin!

I started here with 2 gens. Now I have 20 reps and no gens. Best thing that's happened to the hobby in ages IMO and this is the best place on the net to enjoy em :D

Welcome!!

Welcome bro. Please use the search function. Search is your friend.
When you are ready to order from the trusted dealers. Research the dealer & then the watch. Some of out dealers require exact ordering instructions or you may receive NO watch! Please use EMS shipping so you can track your order. Have fun & beware this hobby is very addictive & lots of fun. :p

dudsub,

Welcome to the forum.

I also see little reason to buy some of the gens since you can get 98% close with the same quality for a fraction of the price.

I started with a couple of automatic and a number of quartz (all gen) and now I'm selling all my gens and buying much better quality reps.

The only downside of the forum is that now I have more the 20 reps but it's hard to control yourself when you see what's discussed here.

Have fun reading and discussing your favorite reps.

Welcome aboard! This place is a very friendly unlike some of the gen boards (wont mention any names). Have fun!
