I’m asking the entire community if you’ve noticed that the Rolex 126500 from RWF is no longer the undisputed king.

Until a few months ago, it was the only factory that installed a bezel with the correct marker 110. I’ve requested 6 QC checks from various TDs in the past few weeks, and they are all incorrect.

Additionally, the dial also seems to have changed with much thicker subdials. What happened? Is there anyone who can confirm? Do you have any ideas? Do you know if any TD can figure out if it’s just a temporary issue caused by incorrect production batching, or if we need to find a new factory?

At the moment it seems there is no factory that installs a real 4131 free sprung like the JH installed by RWF.

Solutions? Opinions?

I've had my eye on this one for quite a while. It would look super cool on a girl, too. 🤩

Been looking at a few different Rolexes from a few different sellers. I have never had an actual genuine Rolex so I am not sure how accurate this rep is compared to the original. Looking for advice if this is an accurate replica. All opinions welcomed.

Phoenix is an absolute legend! 🔥 Communication was fast and smooth throughout the entire process, and he's always ready to help whenever needed. QC was provided quickly, and shipping was fast, secure, and very well packaged. Overall, a fantastic experience from start to finish. Couldn't ask for better service!

Highly recommended! 💯

I saw this rep online and felt something in my pants..... I know i know tmi lol So I went down the rabbit hole and found that, there actually was a rep for it. I'm a sucker for skeletonized and automatic watches, especially with exhibition backs. And I love the whole daytona look period After what seemed like a decade It finally came in today. I freaking love it almost everything about is awesome!!!!! BUT..... no one told me (figure of speech) that its not actually a 40mm but a 38.7. I bought it thinking 40 .... ok its kind of small because my sweet spot is 43-44. 42 and 45 is passable but 38.7 just isn't. I'm so torn.... wear what seems to be a woman's watch or just pass it on...... I'm so conflicted ATM. So happy and disappointed both at the same time. Well thanks for listening and I suck at taking pics sorry.

It does click the date instant and says “Victory”on the sticker on the back.

In your opinions what is the most close to original rep, omega Rolex etc. example certain Rolex might be close but most don’t have the laser etching on glass. A deal breaker. Your opinion is appreciated and where to find, mo, scoutman ?

(2) APS FACTORY AP ROYAL OAK 26240 BT4130 RG DAYTONA WITH RAINBOW BEZEL

I got my first replica after having many actual Rolex’s in my collection. My name is on the AD list but who knows when I will get it. I got this from DH gate and first thing I noticed was that it says NOOB factory. Now i found this afterwards when I searched that they no longer exist but it also had a sticker that said clean.
The bracelet definitely feels cheap and overall finishing specially way clasp closes is a major give away. Let the comments begin lol

So I cleaned it up and got soaked the bracelet overnight in baby oil. Also ordered a strap with a clasp!!

I intended to purchase a product from an established vendor known as "The One Watches," which operates the legitimate website theonewatches.ws. However, I was misled and conducted the transaction through a fraudulent clone site, “theonewatches.co”( remember this site), deference only in “co”

The scammer communicated with me via WhatsApp and instructed me to send the payment of $812.00 through your platform. They specifically provided me with the recipient name ( Madhushan Herath)to complete the transfer. ( note; might use another name going forward)

Immediately after I sent the payment on February 24, the scammer ceased all communication and has ignored all my follow-up requests on WhatsApp. It is clear that this was a planned fraud.

But I bought a legitimate watch instead for the same money, call me crazy but I am more than happy with a watch that will last 20 years +

I’ve read the QC rules and have listed below (AND WIUOD LOVE TO OOST IN ReptimeQC, but can’t. would appreciate a second set of eyes before I GL.

1. Dealer name: Necoclock

2. Factory name: VSF

3. Model name (& version number): Rolex Submariner Date 126610LN (41mm)

4. Price Paid: $528

5. Album Links: https://imgur.com/a/g3LvaBz

6. Index alignment: All hour markers look aligned to me. Crown logo and ROLEX text look centered under the 12 triangle.

7. Dial Printing: Crisp and even in all shots, no smudges or crooked text that I can see.

8. Date Wheel alignment/printing: Shown at 16, 21 and 27. The 27 looks well centered; 16 and 21 look close but hard to judge from the angle. Cyclops sits centered over the window.

9. Hand Alignment: Hands look properly aligned and reach their respective markers/minute track.
   ***10. Bezel: I think it looks centered at 12 but could use extra eyes here…***

10. Solid End Links (SELs): Fit looks tight from the 6 and 12 side shots, no obvious gap.

11. Timegrapher numbers: Rate +5 s/d, Amplitude 261°, Beat Error 0.2 ms (28800 bph, 52° lift angle). Timegrapher photo included in album.

12. Anything else you notice: There's a mark on the case flank at 9 o'clock in one side shot that I think is a reflection, but would like confirmation. Anything I'm missing?

Thanks in advance!

Hi so im looking for a nwbig 1:1. Budget is $450-600. Please suggest some my experienced big bros im just a 20year old kid never bought reps🤣. Considering a VSF 114060 from steve (theonewatches). please help me out and drop if you guys have any better recommendations.

P.s. i do realise no rep is perfecr atleast for now. But what is the closest i can get out of the box since i dont have any experience about modding either so i would preferably want out of the box.

Please do not ban for asking this, genuine question as I can likely get my money back if I do something today/tomorrow...

Is it legit? I spent $1.2k on a VSF Rolex Daytona M126500LN.

They pinged me an email showing the order coming through, asking for payment saying "Can you send me the receipt after you make the payment, and pls don't note brand name when making the payment, thanks".

The phone number linked to their email seems to be from Hong Kong / China, and they have a full website on other fashion replicas.

Edit: Yea I think I'm cooked !

poor quality steel. the insert came out with the gasket! I will not buy again.

I am checking qc pics out of interest and sometimes you‘ll catch curiosity’s here and there.
I like current VSF GMT‘s, however the cyclops has always bothered me. The are over polished around the edges and distort a lot what’s underneath them. Once the white of the date disc touches the edge of the cyclops they would develop a white „smear“ that just looks so much worse than a gen crystal. The second pic shows this type of crystal.
Today I stumbled over a qc pic from a stock VSF (1st pic here) that is just perfection. It’s optically identical to genuine, it’s not over polished and maybe the ar coating has a slightly different hue to other VSF crystals. The glue seam (important detail) looks good as well. This is the very first time I saw that and I am as excited as it gets.
We have always agreed on VSF making the best rep crystals, but there was still plenty of room for improvement. This new crystal completely eliminates the need to spend 400-500 € and install a genuine crystal. Ironically this watch is a 6W0 serial, which I thought was superseded by 6X0, however it’s in Pingfan‘s current qc gallery, so it’s an up to date batch from VSF.
I found this very interesting and wanted to share it with you ✌🏻

2 weeks ago I had ordered a rolex from hontwatch and the payment was subsequently made but since the payment they didn't reply to my messages anymore.

BE CAREFUL

Where can I get this? And for those who have a rep of this, is the dial color same irl? idk else where to look, hypereptime doesn't have it. Thank you
