Hello from Louisiana

Hello everyone. I have been a member for awhile, but never posted. I am now looking to buy my first rep. I am looking at watcheden and silix for a ss 43mm sub. Which site should i order from? Thank you

I've never bought from either but I've also heard too many negatives about either one. I'll leave that decision up to you and others to discuss. But be aware that right now is Chinese New Year and they're all shut down. You won't get an answer from either for a while.

Keep studying what's available for at least another week before you order if you're going to use a Chinese dealer..

Thank you, maybe i can find a good US dealer with some on hand. Seems like all are sold out right now. Who do you deal with?

Welcome to RG!

For US dealer nobody beats Sead! Precious time under the collectors section. He doesn't have a website going but he can source you pretty much anything you want.

HELLO fellow who dat nationer..er..

Good to see another representative from Louisiana... Seeing that you are fairly new, I assume that "sub" you are talking about is that dirty Rolex brand...

If you want to skip a lot of lessons and save some money, just jump straight into PAMS...

Anyway, as long as you stick to one of our "Trusted" dealers, you should be fine... Just please remember to do your homework before choosing. Sure you may be "alright" with any of them, but some are DEFINITELY better than others... WBK, SEAD, and DSN are my favorite out of the box dealers...

WHO DAT?

Glad to have you here!

If it be a Submariner you're looking for, dive into the Rolex section. They've got breakdowns on every model ever made and every flaw lited to the last angstrom. Quite an anal retentive bunch but LOADS of good info.

Being that it is Chinese New Year everything and I do mean EVERTHING is shut down for a cpl weeks. Like kbh said take the time to research the heck out of the varying models and pick one you like.

There are also quite a few dealer reviews to browse through. Each dealer has thier stong points and learning about them is another good use of the CNY downtime.

Beyond all that- welcome to Sparta
