new watch lover from australia!

**ilovemytagcarrera** · 12-12-2009, 05:43 AM

Hi all from around the world!

Just wanted to say hello and I am thrilled to have joined this site.
I love watches and have a small fetish for them .
I own a geninue Tag Carrera 2010 (tiger woods editiion) and a few year old omega seamaster. I can't stop looking at more watches!!
I am looking to buy a new replica watch from trustywatchguy.com which seems to be the best place for a good replica watch?? Please advise otherwise and feedback....
I simply can't afford any more geninue watches, getting married shortly!!
Funny thing I was on holidays in hawaii and first spotted the TAG. Cheapest I could find in hawaii was $2950 duty free. I hammered all the shops in hawaii they could not match this. Then I went back to the hotel and found it on ebay (via authentic watches) man those guys are great. I got it for $2350. Cheaper than hawaii! It was posted to my home by the time i returned to australia. fantastic.

I was so close to buying the grand carrera - a lot more elegant! But way out of my price range!

I really love the white grand carrera that is from trustywatchguy - TAG0024SWB - Grand Carrera SS/SS White A 7750 Sec @ 3 and I equally love the Breitling BSW0065A - Super Avenger SS White "Ultimate" SSB.
Can anyone shed some advice on the above website, are they good? And also some advice between the two watches. I already own a TAG, hence why I am more lending towards the Super Avenger (so nice)
Please help guys! much appericated. Rick from Australia

Update: Trustywatchguy has said he does accept payment for items via pay pal. I am a little bit concered, is this a legit setup? Will I actually recieve a watch! Any advise = great appericated!

Welcome, Rick. Trusty has always been completely reliable. I can't really comment on those watch models because they're not so much my thing. I'm sure you'll get an answer soon from some of the Tag/Breit fans.

**ilovemytagcarrera** · 12-12-2009, 07:12 AM

Hi Kollektor, Thanks for your input. Trusty has asked me to make a payment with the reference: Fengshui advice fee . Is this normal?

**bc-05** · 12-12-2009, 07:28 AM

yes its normal.. i wouldnt recommend trusty at all just because of his attitude towards return customers.. but as a noobie buyer i guess trusty or josh would be the way to go as they speak good english and they are quick to reply.. but once u get experience i wouldnt recommend them at all since 1. their price is too high 2. they dont do qc 3. their attitude just stinks dogs ass..

trustworthy and whether u get a watch yes u will.. as for receiving dead on arrival watches and they expect u to send it back to china for something silly like scratch dial or stripped crown? well i cant comment..

if you really are concern about QC try supermirrors or kingwatch.. not the fastest to reply but always helpful friendly and never had any qc problem

.. hope this helps

Hi Rick always good to see more Aussies here.
Trusty has a very good name here, you should be fine.
SA is an awesome watch - but you better like them BIG!

I have used Josh as well (note he has a new site - old one got hacked) - super great service.
SEAD as a very good name as well.
Do your research on your dealer, but all the approved ones here are good - importantly learn how they like you to contact them, place your order and give payment. Some like PWC are very specific, but if you follow their guidelines you should be fine.
I have had watches shipped from China, Thailand, UK and USA, all without problems or customs issues.

Enjoy

G'day Rick, my first reps were bought from other members on the forum here before I bought from Josh (www.perfect-hour.com) and Andrew (trustywatchguy) and Sead (supermirrors). The advantage there was someone else had already dealt with any problems (hot glue fix, crown guard pin, movement issues, lime job, etc) so I got great watches straight up.

Now I feel a little more confident with the reps I'm preparing to do my own mods on the watches I bought from the dealers.

No specific advice on the watches you're interested in sorry, but in terms of the forum and rep buying in general my advice would be do a lot of reading and research your dealers before laying down the hard earned. And patience, be very patient.

Josh makes me feel like a doctor, I like that...

**william1670** · 12-12-2009, 11:11 AM

welcome mate,hope you enjoy your time here,you will learn a lot if you want to.Plenty of Aussies here too..

**torobravo** · 12-12-2009, 11:16 AM

G´day & welcome to the club

**ilovemytagcarrera** · 12-13-2009, 07:06 AM

Thanks guys! I ended up going through Joshua at Perfectclones.
I initially ordered the white face super avenger, but he said that will be a one month delay. He suggested the black or blue. So I went with the blue!! I hope I don't regret not waiting for that white one?!He said he will post tomorrow. I am guessing it is EMS shipping from china, I Hope it is not that long. Josh has been very prompt to reply! Thanks for your replies all............. I don't think I can wait for this watch!

if u want white just replace with a gen white dial

**nGage** · 12-13-2009, 08:18 AM

Welcome, ilovemytagcarrera. I presume it is well lubricated then

Lots of good folks here to help you out when you need it and lots of good information here for those willing to search for it. All in all a pretty great place to hang out for anyone that like wearing watches, buying watches, talking watches, selling watches, swapping watches, modding watches etc. etc.

Lots of fun to be had. Enjoy.
Mark
