I'm not talking about the $30 Class 1's you find in Chinatown, although even those will fool the average joe until they break in 3 months.

This is bull ****. Class 3 pfft. They are nothing compared to the real thing.
Plus the WR is crap,

Pfft yourself. See post 20. Class 3 have full Japanese mechanicals. Completely indistinguishable from the real thing unless you open it up.

Sorry boss, the truth may hurt.

That's just NOT TRUE. Just cause you took it to some retard that thought it was a nice watch does not make it one. Still fakes are just that FAKE, Would you buy a MB w/ a KIA motor in it? Class 3 is a made up BS term by the scam artists selling fake watches.

theres no such thing as class one, two or three. where did you hear that one? replicas have 3 distinct qualities. if thats what you meant, you're still way off base. different qualities refer to where the movement is from.
the lowest is the chinese replica using a chinese movement. the 2nd type is the japanese movement replica. that would be a mid priced one using a japanese movement. the last class is the replica using a swiss movement and cost the most. these are so good, that even someone like me would need to look twice to see the differences. heres 2 watches. one is a replica. can you tell the difference?



you buy a 30 buck replica, say its a tag heuer and the jeweler was fooled? I think not. we don't deal in replicas. its illegal to import them. if ordered online, you take the risk of it being seized by customs in the usa or canada. you can get a fine swiss or japanese watch for under 200 bucks. why not just ask where you can get a great deal on a watch?
this site has a deal of the day. most are under 100 bucks. some are very nice swiss watches. I've gotten a few from them.

you don't buy replica parts for your car, why be like the car salesman who wears a cheap knockoff rolex datejust?
heres some real watches.

I have no idea why anyone would get a cheap replica instead of just a cheaper brand of watch. Cheesy is as cheesy does.

I don't really need a lecture from you. The terminology was exlained to me buy the guy selling the fakes. He had all three qualities in his display case, and explained the price points.

And to say that what transpired really did not transpire because of your omnipotence is frankly ridiculous.

How can a site which only provides information rip you off? Not to mention, it also provides information against replicas such as "Top 10 Lies about Replica Watches".

Maybe next time you should review a posted link before commenting on it.

You can fool yourself into thinking that you're getting a good product, but your not. I've been to that site. It looks to me like it was put together buy a company that sells them.

To make it simple.. .FAKES are.... FAKE

Also lot's of these "swiss" movement replicas. Guess what they are.

FAKE SWISS MOVEMENTS.

Oh yeah they copy that too. Do you think they have morals? Standards? They rip off the design from another company so people can pretend they have a nice watch.

This is from the site and is complete BS. That is NO way to tell if it's a swiss movement. I have a swiss watch that does not hack.

Q: Is there a quick way to tell if I have a Swiss or high end Japanese replica?

A: Since all Swiss movements have a hacking function, just unscrew the crown and pull it out to the position to set the time. If the second hand does not stop moving then it does not have the hacking function which means it's not a Swiss movement. Some Japanese movements will also hack, so this test does not differentiate between Swiss and Japanese movements.

Well lots of watches do appreciate, but not every one can get a machine gun lic,nor can they use them every day. That's cool that you collect them though. I've only see a couple in my lifetime.

Let me crack a lil egg of knowledge on you.

One of the most iconc watches in the world is the Omega Speedmaster Pro.
It was the FIRST WATCH ON THE MOON. It did not hack and still does not hack. It was and still is swiss made.
I had a 1964 Carrera Re-edition which had almost the same movement. It did not hack.


What I'm saying is that the site is giving out wrong information, and that hacking or not hacking is no way of telling weather a watch is real or not.

Stick to cars buddy.

You quoted a comment about replica watches and said it was not true because you had one which didn't hack. Go back and re-read your post.

You're a troll, You've been testing me and now that I've disproved these BS claims of "class watches" and then you trying to accuse me of owning a fake you abuse your power and give me an infraction. I don't what what you expect after the way you've acted.
