Hi there, watchlovers!

Just the other day i came back from a shopping trip in Shanghai. On this tripp i got myself two Rolex reps. They looked fine to me in the shop, and comming back to Japan (were i live right now --> 2010) i started to look them up on the net. I ended up on this forum, and i quickly discovered that i most likely was fooled. I see this as learning money, and they were after all only 15€ each.

I included a pic of the new watces. Looking at the photo result, really gives me a good reason on buying that fat macro i always wanted...

Also included a Tokyo pic, "old style meets new style" at softbank.

This forum has really opend my eyes for the hobby. I always liked a good piece, but never really liked the idea of spending € 1000 ++ on a single rep. But whit the advice on this nice forum im hoping to find:

1. A good Deepsea/seadweller
2. A Planet ocean.

Best regards,

Franke

Welcome to the GEEK

You can find real good Planet Ocean and Rolex here

Check the dealer Section

Thanx. Yes, i have seen the dealer section, and have some ideas. I usually run into deals head first, but this time i will really let all the info sink in properly before placing any orders.

Looks like the firs buy is gonna be a Rolex Deepsea/Seadweller. After seeing this post by inferno i just got to have one. Only concern is Japanese customs; they seems to be on there toes at the moment, and i can´t think of anything that could suck more than loosing a piece that way.

Ja, det finns säkert fler Svenskar här. Har sett någon/några sidor i ämnet och handlare, men det verkar vara oseriös verksamhet.

Welcome to RepGeek Franke.

You should be able to find a nice UPO very easily, and keep an eye on the trade section also.

As for the Deep Sea, it's high up on my wanted list too, but I might just wait awhile to see what other improvements are on the horizon.
