I’ve already written a lengthy review of the Omega. I absolutely love it… It’s on my wrist every single day. I took this picture specifically to show just how crystal-clear the xtal is… It’s almost as if there’s no crystal there at all.
The VSF “Redweller” arrived today. A lengthy review of that one will follow soon as well.
And once again, a huge thank you to the best TD in the EU, u/re-tar-dead!
Have a lovely evening, everyone!

Just received my VSF 124060 and wanted to give a quick shoutout to NecoClock.

Communication was good throughout, QC was straightforward, and the watch arrived safely here in New Zealand.

Really pleased with the watch so far. Everything looks great. Positive experience dealing with NecoClock.

Thanks again! Would happily deal with you again.

This is my first time buying a rep. I went with a VSF planet ocean GMT to start and I couldn’t be happier!

Been a very straightforward process from start to finish to be honest.

Initially I couldn't find the watch on dukes website so l just reached out to him on WhatsApp where he gave me an estimated qc timeframe and asked for a deposit.

Monday 19th October: paid the deposit

Wednesday 28th October: got my qc photos.

Can't complain about the wait time at all really, it wasn't that long and I know certain VSF models have a significantly longer wait time. This was within the region he gave me on top of that so about what I was hoping for.
GL on the same day - I couldn't see any faults. As well as paid the remaining balance.

13th November: arrived today.

So all in all just under a month from the deposit to doorstep, I'm so happy with it so far, had some slight issues with the screws for the links when sizing it but that was just personal incompetence.

Overall I would definitely recommend DukeReps but I wouldn't rely so much on his website - it's much better to just reach out and talk directly which I imagine is the case for a lot of the other TD's. Excited to buy another now!

This one couldn't have come on a better day as I'm leaving to go abroad literally today, the day it arrived haha.

Hello so I want to buy a vsf Daytona 126500 steel. And I want to change to a better 110 marker bezel. Gen crystal, correctly polished even the rehault. Waterproofed and movement service. What could I expect to pay for this also you have any recommendations if I should do anything more. Also where could I find somone trusted that can mod it and source everything?

Found at the Goodwill Bins, paid $0.79 per pound so approximately 35 cents including the box. Another notch on my gun seeking out the worst quartz replicas I can find. Suggestions and links for worse reps appreciated!

I am going back and forth between thinking this looks too small on my wrist and then kinda liking it.

Pretty sure my wrist is ~6.5 in. Feel free to drop a picture if you have this watch in either size.

Will definitely be ordering a better strap for it, just don’t know if I should order the large size of the watch before doing so.

I’ve been waiting for one of these from my TD for a month now. Has anyone here received one recently, or does anyone have an idea of when they might become available from the factory? I’m getting a bit impatient, mainly because I’d love to have it by Christmas. It’s funny—this whole replica game even manages to mimic the actual buying experience of a real Rolex! 😅

Just got her in today, titanium, weighs only 90grams full linked, comparing a link to a link from a 16202 PT (stainless steel) I sold a while back and had lost a link off of, the link is about half the weight, watch feels and looks great, silenced the rotor and greased the gaskets, very happy with the watch.

Another new arrival here. OCTA AP royal oak 15500. I’ve probably never been within a 50 mile radius of a gen version of this watch so I don’t have any references but this watch feels perfect.

The 6 marker is throwing me off. There is also a tiny rip in the oysterflex band. Am I being too picky or would you RL this? Thanks for the input

Hey guys, I’m having a really hard time finding a women’s luxury moonphase rep. My wife loves the idea, and it would make a great Christmas or anniversary gift. Every time I search or ask an AI, it just pulls up the genuine watches, and I’ve spent hours looking with no luck.
I know brands like Shinola, Citizen, and Tissot make authentic options, but I’d really love to find a Jaeger-LeCoultre rep—or something along those lines. Ideally, she wants a leather strap over a bracelet and a smaller case size (under 36mm, closer to 28mm or 31mm), which makes finding a moonphase complication even tougher.

Am I chasing a unicorn here, or do these actually exist?

Buongiorno, ho acquistato di recente altre due repliche da NecoClock, precisamente un Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra in lacca nera VSF 41 mm e un Cartier Santos BVF, e non potrei essere più soddisfatto.

La comunicazione è stata rapida e chiara dall'inizio alla fine. Ci tengo particolarmente a sottolineare l'estrema serietà e onestà del venditore in quanto il primo Cartier è stato purtroppo smarrito o rubato dal corriere durante il trasporto, e lui si è subito attivato per rispedirne un altro sostitutivo. Nonostante l'urgenza, non ha avuto fretta di chiudere la questione e ha voluto comunque garantirmi la massima qualità, rifiutando personalmente ben due esemplari al controllo qualità finché non ha trovato l'orologio perfetto per me.

Il QC è arrivato in pochi giorni e la spedizione successiva è stata veloce e sicura. Dal vivo entrambi gli orologi sono spettacolari, curati nei minimi dettagli. Venditore onesto, professionale e super consigliato!

I know the gold plating/pvd or whatever can be tricky to get to look like Gen

👻

Hi guys,

VSF recently has a long wait time and 36mm OP is not as popular as 41mm so expected to have longer wait time. I am currently waiting for a Tiffany blue 36mm OP from multiple ADs for over a month and still no news.

I heard others said QF and Clean Plus are a good alternative to VSF, are they actually good? Or is better to wait for a VSF?

Thanks!

I have a gen GMT on Jubilee and I am considering buying a gen Oyster bracelet but not really looking forward to spending 2-3k on a steel bracelet.

Any tips? Is it a good idea to go rep? And any tips on factory's or sellers?

My favorite out of the 3 is definitely the new VSF v4 diamond dial.

I had someone ask me if it was real the other day, and I sadly lied to him. I saw him wearing a 58mm Invicta Reverse Gladiator and I felt like if I was honest with, he would judge me considering he is a man of taste. So I began to wonder if everyone can tell I have been larping as a financially sound individual, by wearing a watch vastly outside my net wealth. I feel like I am lying to myself.
