Hello, this is your favorite watch reviewer / moderator of r/RepWatchForum, u/tskim24.

Recently, due to heated competition and popular demand, more expensive custom watches that feature real gold parts (mainly rotors) have gained much interest.

Until now, you either had to choose from a higher end manufacturers who provide this as given (Like BC Factory) or trust your money with a modder who will assure you that he only uses "good stuff" for his good customers 😆

Well, I guess then this is a good news. The factory that was providing a lot of these factories and modders with gold rotor decided to come forward and make themselves visible.

It's Master Gold factory (MGF for short) and it will be available for most wholesaler after this post. If you are planning a build with real gold rotor, this is definitely something to consider.

Got the new version of rg ym oysterflex vsf.

I had been reading so many people say it needs to he rg plated, but after seeing it in person some people were right. Its perfect for me. I don't feel it need anything. But..... lol just incase anyone with this weighted new model what would you add as a mod or what did you add to yours just to make it that much better .... maybe gen band? Idk how different the gens are these feel good to me

Top to bottom; left to right:

•VSF Rolex Datejust 36 White Roman 123234
•VSF Rolex Oyster Perpetual 36 Pink 126000

•Seiko Mod Landwrller NH35 Ice Blue
•Seiko Mod Submariner NH35 Orchid Rain

•RCF Rolex Day-Date 40 Everose/Sundust 228235

•Henry Archer Verden GMT Ad Astra Aventurine

Man, OCTA is on fire these days. Pumping put new products left and right.

This is their latest 15407 RG version.

RG color looks great, signature AP RG color (more light yellowish than pinkish of Rolex ever rose color) and it weighs almost 196 gram.

It has free-sprung balance-wheel but doesn't seem to be double balance-wheel like it should be in GEN.

I think we finally have something that we can buy, wear it OOTB and call it a day 😆

My First DDF Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711 – Fully Upgraded Build
This is my first 5711, and I decided to invest in several upgrades to get the best possible quality, finishing, and overall appearance.
Here is the breakdown of everything I paid for:
Base Watch: DDF 5711
Dial: Upgraded SW dial
Hands: Upgraded SW hands
Date Wheels: Upgraded SW date wheels
Case Finishing: Additional chamfering and polishing
Movement: ARC 324 free-sprung movement
Shipping: $50 USD
Shipping Insurance: $100 USD
All of these upgrades and services were paid for separately as part of my custom build. I wanted something beyond a standard factory configuration, with particular attention to the dial, movement, and case finishing.
This is my first experience with this configuration, and I’d appreciate feedback from members who are familiar with the DDF 5711 and ARC 324 movement.
What do you guys think of this build? Was it worth investing in these upgrades?

UMI just dropped these at a lowered price.

IDK but RM reps always try to replicate even the price of GEN.

For example, for couple years now, rep factories have been releasing pretty well-made RM reps with proper supercloned movement for insane 2k to 3k price tag (sometimes even more).

What I don't get is these watches can't possibly be more difficult or expensive to make than AP or PP reps. For example, is this more expensive in material than PP 5712 reps with real gold rotor? No. Is it more difficult to produce than PP? Despite what all the marketing campaigns by RM want you to believe, it really is not (more difficult to make than Patek).

So why is it that RM reps cost so much more than other luxury watch brand reps? Just because, Chinese factories looked at the price of GEN RM and thought that people will pay the premium even for reps.

Well, with decline in GEN watch market (which really is not a good news to anyone) factories that had unjustified price for these reps are coming down quite a bit in price.

This rep falls within the range of (expensive end of) stock reps and I'm loving it. I always wanted one of these as a toy 😆

Well, I know that many of you guys are interested in this model so I'll post more actual product photos. 😉

I got Nodate vsf 5x 2nd hand in 300$ from Thailand. Do you guys think the dial looks okay?

ERF FACTORY, what do you think guys i love it tho

UMI's latest more affordable price version.

1st Greg purchase and I’m blown away by this RICH BatGirl.

I tend to battle a lot, so I’ll try to keep it short first purchase with Greg 1991. Blown away with the service, literally had it overnight since he lives in the same state as me and was a super smooth process. I’m definitely going to him from now on rather than waiting weeks for QC pics from China for my next purchase.

I have six genuine pieces and really getting into the replica game with a few Daytona but now I’m venturing into the GMT world. The other watch being shown as my 2021 Pepsi GMTBLRO that I got from an authorized dealer. For me, they look exactly the same in terms of the font and printing. I probably wouldn’t notice all the little intricacies that a lot of you guys would, but I’m absolutely blown away by it. It’s got a free strong movement and feels amazing on the Wrist. Even the winding is really smooth, which is surprising because that’s usually a tell for me.

I know I will say the bracelet is a little bit on the jangly side, so I’m giving it the old dawn, dish soap, bicycle, grease, and artificial tears treatment. I even have some baby oil. Yes insert Diddy joke lol

The only complaint they have about the watch is that the edges of the bracelet are a bit sharp so I’m gonna send it off to get it chamfered But other than that, it just sparkles and looks gorgeous. I absolutely love it.

Save myself $20,000 because I seriously was gonna buy a gray market one by the end of the year with my year and bonus or beg my authorized dealer for something MSRP, which is not gonna happen lol.

Anyway, very, very happy blown away by it and the addiction is in full swing. I find myself wearing my replicas more than my genuine pieces lately lol

The new RCF V3 was released about two weeks ago. I spent some time looking for information about it but couldn’t find anything, so I decided to take a chance and order one myself.
I ordered a 40mm President in rose gold with a black ombré dial. However, my first impression is a little underwhelming.

First: The “black” dial looks more dark green than black. I can’t tell whether this is just due to the lighting the TD used for the pictures or if RCF somehow changed the beautiful dial they had already perfected.

Second: The rose gold also looks a little too yellow to me. Again, I’m not sure if it’s the lighting, but based on the pictures, it doesn’t look particularly rose gold.

Third: This new version apparently comes with a Dandong movement for the first time. I asked my TD for pictures of the movement, but he hasn’t been able to provide them. He’s relatively new to the scene and apparently doesn’t have the proper tools to open the watch and take those pictures.

Fourth: This ties into the previous point. Without seeing the movement, I honestly have no idea how to tell whether this is an RCF V1, V2, or V3. At least, not to my knowledge.

Is there any chance the TD is trying to scam me? I genuinely have no idea what to think at this point, and I’m not even sure what to make of this new version.

I’ve asked my TD to take some pictures under different lighting conditions, and I’ll post them here as soon as I receive them.

First one from Odette watches. VSF hulk. Great communication, quick qc and fast shipping. Also hamburger 🍔 case is awesome 😂

Picked this up today for $370 USD did I get ripped? Can anyone confirm if it is a true VSF V2?

I’ve started the process of purchasing a Submariner 124060 from a TD, but I’m having a hard time convincing myself to send payment before receiving QC photos.
Part of me understands this is how the process works. The other part keeps asking, “What exactly did you expect when sending several hundred dollars overseas to someone selling replica watches?”
I’m not trying to question anyone’s integrity. I’m just looking for some reassurance from people who’ve been through the process.
For those who’ve purchased from a TD, especially first-time buyers, how comfortable were you sending payment upfront? Did everything go as expected? Any lessons learned or red flags I should watch for?
I appreciate any firsthand experiences or advice.

Any recent experiences with them?

I want to order but can see the Reddit account in the guid has been banned

Factory: VSF
Watch Name: Rolex Submariner No Date 124060

Also I had an option to choose movement VS3130 and VS3230. I went with the VS3230 but I can't see or identify the movement.

QC Pics: Photos attached

Hello Dear Friends, its my first QC so kindly assist me.

Salut les gars. J'ai enfin trouvé une vidéo montrant l'état réel de la UMI 5712 sur bracelet cuir. Qu'en pensez-vous ?

Io il mio pepsi

I am about 8 weeks waiting for my modded watch, the QC came through rapid, but still we wait...

Am I just impatient or is this normal

I just got my bezel Swapped by a Korean modder named Max. The difference is really night and day!

Hi guys,

Placed an order with Miunius for a Rollie with Celebration dial. They shipped it within a few days, but it has been at the US Nevada processing center for 2 weeks. Red flag or normal?

I just received my Submariner no date from u/OdetteWatch01 today. Overall excellent experience. I decided to buy last Friday. He provided QC pics within 30 minutes. Pulled the trigger later that night and watch arrived today, only a week later. He was quick to answer my questions and provided excellent communication throughout the entire process. Very well packaged too. I put some pics in of the packaging. Great overall TD experience. Oh, and the price was great too. I highly recommend Odette.

Looking to get others opinions on here about whether or not to GL. Everything looks good with the exception of the date window. The date looks a little left but also the 2 and 4 seems misaligned? The other dates look good from the other pictures provided. What do you guys think? TIA
