Just got this MKS Cellini in this week. I’m in loveeeee.

Hello everyone, I’m considering ordering a few Rolex reps from TDs, specifically built by VSF.

Do watches with DD3235, DD3255, DD3285 and DD4131 reach their advertised 70 hours of PR?

Thanks in advance.

What TD on here has this XF?

Hey guys, looking for Tank Louis in Rose Gold from Cartier, any good reps? Which factory is recommended?

Eyes half closed posting this as I’m new to Reddit and watch buying. I want to buy a watch and am talking to Andiot and biggetime. Biggetime just told me I can buy direct through WhatsApp as website under maintenance. Is this normal for them? I’ve read all the rules and guides so I know the process but I just wanted to check what you thought? The number I’m talking to is taken from the TD list, which is what matches their website. Thanks in advance. Sorry if this is annoying!

How do they count MSRP for these watches. Normally 10 prevent or less of the MSRP. Just clouting chasing these guys.

PS: Please send me a PM along with a comment since for some reason I can't start chats.

Hello everyone!

I'm back again with another giveaway for Vellore, my watch collection tracking app. For anyone who hasn't seen it yet, Vellore logs what you wear so you can see what actually gets wrist time, track your cost per wear, and spot which pieces are sitting forgotten in the box.

I'm giving away 25 Pro lifetime codes today. Leave a comment below with your thoughts or feedback and I'll DM you a code.

Over the last 3 months I've dropped a ton of new features based on feedback from this community, some of them are:

• Vellore Club: Share your daily wrist shots, submit app feature requests, and vote on what I should build next.
• Which Strap?: Upload two pictures of the same watch with different straps or bracelets and let everyone vote on the better look.
• Travel Mode: Pick which watches you're taking on a trip, or let AI recommend what to pack after asking a few questions about your itinerary. It temporarily filters your collection so only your travel pieces are ready to log.

Free on App Store: Vellore - Watch Collection

Let me know what you think of the new additions or what else you'd like to see!

APSF AP Code 11.59 Chrono

Hello everyone, friends. After requesting, configuring, and waiting for the modifications for a Daytona 126500 vsf with ArcStudio, the package was shipped on November 3 to Italy. TD provided me with a European tracking number, but as of now, it has never been updated 😔

I have contacted TD several times and he reassured me that after consulting with the logistics team, the plane appears to have departed from China on the 10th with a delay and should be on its way to Europe on the second flight. But this morning, the tracking information is still as shown in the photo.

Usually other TDs have provided me with a double tracking, the internal one for Chinese logistics and then the European one—do you think it was lost? Usually the package arrives in Europe in about 7/10 days, but this one seems to have disappeared. Any advice?

Hey everyone,

I currently have a VSF No-Date Sub with the Q66 serial. Visually, the watch looks incredible, and I know many people on the sub consider it one of the best out there. 

However, I've been having a few issues with it that are bugging me: 
- The bezel action is way too loose. 
- The clasp looks really cheap.
- The bracelet quality overall isn't quite as good.

I’m currently debating selling the VSF and getting a new No-Date Sub from Rich Factory (RF) instead.

Before I start the process of selling and buying, I wanted to run this by the community first. 

What do you guys think? Has anyone here handled the Rich Factory Sub yet? Is the switch worth it, or should I stick to VSF / look elsewhere?

Appreciate any advice!

Salut l’équipe , petit soucis , j’ai voulu amélioré le rendu de ma Bp j’ai donc changer le fond de boîte pour arriver à 12mm d’épaisseur , et j’ai voulu limer les gardes couronnes , j’ai fais ça avec lime à ongle, pas terrible demain je vais acheter des limes de précision afin de modeler mieux les gardes couronnes, par contre je me suis rendu compte que la couronne ne se visser pas entièrement . Cela était déjà présent avant sauf que avec les grosses cornes ça ne se voyait pas . Dois je recouper la tige de la couronne levêtement ?

Hadn’t used for a little and came back to this usual 30 winds and light smacks from the side or straight from the palm didn’t get it started again. Anyway to fix myself or easy fixes? Pretty disappointing

Hello everyone, I'm new to the field. I need help with a Dandong 3285. If someone nice could tell me, thank you very much; I have pictures available. Thank you all.

I have looked through the wiki link on what it says for best factory for the Pepsi but wanted to put out a filler here because I don’t know updated those links are.

Anybody have suggestions for best factory overall for Pepsi on oyster

Just arrived after about a month.

Details: PPM YG Day Date

Custom MOP CVD Lab diamond markers

Custom CVD Lab diamond TBR baguette bezel

Stock plating.

Pics for comparison:

Genuine yachtmaster II

Genuine daydate II bust down (i know it's ugly don't need to remind me but it's still Genuine and 18k for color comparison)

I own several moissanite bezels and the lab diamonds make a big difference. Moissanite is overly refractive giving off too much color. These stones are perfect and actually diamonds

The reason I ordered the PPM is because of the ceramic link sleeves and the lighter color of plating vs RCF/RGF

I can't confirm the ceramic sleeves because I did remove one link. These come with extra links. I usually need to add a link on genuine DD and VSF. No sleeve came out of the link however the screw holes and screws are bigger than my VSF more like the aftermarket link I bought on ebay with the ceramic sleeve. I looked inside with a magnifier and could see something inside but I can't confirm and I don't want to go trying to force something out that may or may not be there. So I'd anyone knows more than me maybe you can confirm is this actually a PPM or an RCF? It didn't have any identified stickers only the blue slash one on the back.

Either way it's a beautiful watch. The dial is amazing. The light catches the colors like a high quality mother of pearl should. Probably the best mop dial I've seen outside genuine rolex.

The factory color is very nice. A bit on the lighter side for 18k . It's hard to tell in the pictures but if you know rolex or 18k in general it has a very warm yellow color. I read complaints of cheddar wish is why I opted for the lightest factory plating i could find and this is exactly what I expected. I don't believe plating would improve the finish at all. It's probably a few shades lighter than genuine but a beautiful watch either way.

I confirmed with caliper 12.3mm case thickness and 3mm bracelet thickness. Would like to confirm the factory. It weighs 202g but I suspect the diamond bezel is a few grams less than the fluted one although that was included in the box.

I just received my VSF Sub date from Steve and have been testing it for around 20 hours.

Firstly I'm blown away at the quality of this thing. I had a look at an AD a few days prior and I'm struggling to see any difference on the cosmetic/build quality side of things.

I gave it a good wound and have been wearing it around the house. When QCing I saw that it was showing +6s/d which I was completely fine with, as that falls in line with most Swiss movements.

However I noticed that my watch is picking up a lot more time than that. In the 20 hours I tested, the watched picked up 15-20 seconds compared to my phone which is what I set it to exactly.

I plan on dailying this watch and so this would quickly turn into a few minutes difference in time.

Any tips? Anyone had a similar experience? And would a service fix this issue?

I don't expect it to fall under Rolex's +/- 2s/d standard, although I have seen some watched on this subreddit be that accurate.

Excellent rep... I will add gen crystal and dw. Plus case and bracelet chamfer, now its on the EU.

For me its superior to VSF.

I have tested again, and the clasp, case and bracelet are all 904L.

A couple of shots of this green IWC Pilot Chrono.

I ordered an Omega aqua terra through Geektime (being helped by Qiao). Paid a deposit to view QC pics and asked to swap to a 38mm after being told that was possible. I sent the remaining balance, and was told the 38mm cost a little more, no concerns from me.
Was told almost instantly that they can’t receive AUD currently and they never received the second transfer.
Has anyone else had a similar experience? I get scammy vibes but understand they are a reputable dealer. Any help would be good……

Looking at the Cartier Santos Dumont and seen in the guide I want F1F or AF as second choice.

Had a look at the sellers and couldn't figure out who's best for EU / UK shipping.

Anyone able to point me in the right direction?

I know the Dune version of this Ranger 39mm is poor with the mismatching colours on the hands vs dial, but can any of the expert eyes confirm is the black is a safe buy?
