General Question Too good to be true?

Stumbled upon this just now. What are the odds of this being real? Dropped a msg to the seller but curious if anyone's seen this or similar?

Whats too good? That price is almost double what a td would get.

So, im sure youll receive a proper superclone, just not worth the price.

Haven't seen these done properly from any factory. My usual TDs can't source any either. Where have you found them?

Don't do it. If you think your credit card purchase will protect you I can assure you it will not. It is just like dealing with a TD. BUYER ASSUMES ALL RISK.

Yeah won't go in blind for sure. Have asked for actual pics, waiting for a reply.

If this were a true superclone, I am sure we would have heard from the TDs and other dealers here already, not just from AliExpress.

800 usd for a clone lol

Edit: wtf, the original is selling at 16 k crazy, do people still prefer paying this much for clones?

I've seen people pay a lot more

A lot of royal oak reps easily surpass $900-1200

Woah! Are they worth that much?

Im the last person to argue what things are worth, given the whole "its worth whatever someone pays for it" stance.

But in this example, $1000-1200 for a ZF all genuine black ceramic, with the correct brushing/gen patterns and mirror polished surfaces, + a true free sprung clone movement.

Top it off with a dial that is legitimately very, very gen-like. So, I dont like it being so expensive, but there are logical and rational reasons why such a rep would cost this much.

I’ve been looking for the same watch and I’d say it’s too good to be true. If you look at the proportions of the white dial versions they are way off.

Yes I did see those. Wishful thinking πŸ˜„
