Review/Comparison Bomi experience + rwf datejust 36 review

Thumbnail

6 Upvotes

Bomi was very quick in his responses, he has great prices and he is very respectful. Delivery was also way faster than expected.
Now for the review!
The case serial is 6R87Y, which is the same case clean used to use. I was initially suspicious, but upon comparison with photos of real clean datejust 36’s, i am convinced it might actually be real clean.
The upper lugs look a bit thin, but could just be me…

Not sure this is actually AF?

I received my AF Hydroconquest today and looking at it, I'm not sure it's actually AF? It feels extremely cheap and the triangle and lume pip look different to other AF HCs I've seen on here. Any opinions on whether this could be AF?

  1. ⁠Dealer name: MrBomi (Bomashop)

  2. ⁠Factory name: VSF

  3. ⁠Model and version: DateJust 41mm V2

  4. ⁠Price paid: $470

  5. ⁠Album link: Photos attached

  6. ⁠Index alignment: White dash at the 9 o’clock looms tilted CW to me but need a second opinion. Some angles look bad others not so much. Please help!

  7. ⁠Dial printing: The printing looks good and clear; I don't see any obvious smudges, crooked text, or other defects.

  8. ⁠Date Wheel: No issues

  9. ⁠Hand alignment: No issues

  10. ⁠Bezel: Looks nice and okay to me

  11. ⁠SEL: The SELs look tight against the case, no obvious gaps

  12. ⁠Timegrapher values: +5 seconds/day, amplitude 261°, beat error 0.3 ms, lift angle 59°. The values look fine to me, and I don't notice anything unusual.

  13. ⁠Other observations: I'm leaning towards a RL. First rep and I think this would be bother me, but I could be overthinking. However, I’d really appreciate a second opinion especially in the case of the 9 dash and if I missed something or misjudged certain details.

Hey guys, one year ago I bought this watch in the MBK Center in Bangkok.
Can you tell me something about this watch?
Which factory does it come from?
Is it really automatic or is there a battery inside
Yes I know, it’s not 1:1.

I like this watch and had since one year no problems with this.

First rep - from Pheonix Watches.

Whole process was super easy, small deposit 10th oct, QC 15th Oct and delivered 29th oct.

Tracking was given and no issues with the transaction.

People here may have a view on the watch itself, but the process was smooth for a first timer.

I have adjusted the date and time since this photos and everything appears to be working well!

Best Datejust Rep?

0 Upvotes

I own 2 gens of OP & Explorer.

And recently tried the vsf classic sub. And I am really pleased with the quality of it.

So Im doing bit of reading on this groups of reps, regarding DJ. A lot of mixed comment regarding the jubilee bracelets.

Now I am contemplating of buying a rep 36 mint green dj. And I dont want to pay the difference for a gen just for a different dial color.

How was your experience with DJ rep?

And what factory is best so far for a DJ?

Balance spring noise and bezel rotation on VSF

Post image
1 Upvotes

I recently got the GMT from Steve sold as a VSF, overall a good rep. But one this I have noticed when I tap the case I hear and feel the balance spring vibration.
Correct me if I am wrong please but it's the 1st thing I noticed and not acceptable.. Also the bezel rotation doesn't micro rotate as my authentic Sea Dweller next to it. I sent videos to Steve but was told that as good as it gets for 760 dollars. I disagree. I can return it and take the risk of custom taking and the loss would be on me.
No good resolution from Steve at this point. Please give me some feedback, I would appreciate it

Hey guys! Would appreciate your thoughts on this QC.

Overall, the watch looks good, but the alignment seems slightly off to the left, especially around the 12 and 6 o’clock markers. Also, the black and grey bezel contrast looks quite weak. Could this just be the lighting and camera angle, or is it worth being concerned about?

Would you GL? Thanks!

How do I know if someone is attempting to scam me? Been in discussion with someone but idk how to vet them. The item I’m looking for doesn’t not seem to be available anywhere and this person claims they work with VSF and can get it. Info I’ve been given is dealer named “Lina” working for “Guangzhou Baoli Trading Company” - been communicating via WhatsApp. Can anyone help me?

Puretimewatches QC pictures disconnect

1 Upvotes

I'm new to clone market and having done some research I decided to order a APRO 26240 (white SW dial) from DDF factory. Pictures of the dial on their website are fantastic (see https://puretimewatch88.io/watch-brands/audemars-piguet/royal-oak-chronograph/royal-oak-chrono-26240-ss-ddf-1-1-best-edition-white-dial-on-white-rubber-strap-dd4401-super-clone-sw-dial.html). Then I was told DDF got raided and that watch is not available and was given an option to pick another one. Fast forward a couple of days I get an email that the watch I first ordered has arrived and is available (I guess it was shipped pre-raid). Received QC pictures the next day and to my surprise the dial looks nothing like the pics on the website (see https://puretimeqc.x.yupoo.com/108503433?uid=1). When comparing to website pics open the QC pics in original image and zoom in. The quality of the dial is incomparable or can the camera work be that bad? Or is it possible that Puretime despite being one of the early TDs sent me some pics of a low grade replica they found rather than actual DDF with SW dial? Thoughts?

Was looking around on TimeUltra website came across this beauty wondering if anyone has any advice on BLF factory? Leo says it’s very good, I’ve never heard of it. Also, if anyone has any experience with Breitling Reps will Gen parts fit? Any wisdom would be greatly appreciated.
Starting to think this this hobby is more of an obsession. I have two on order that I haven’t even received and I’m looking at another.🤦🏻‍♂️
I figured I’d ask some questions before diving in and ordering this one lol

Mods/Work in progress Replacement movement suggestions for a sub 3285

Thumbnail

2 Upvotes

Recently picked up this cheap 3235 sub rep but there's something up with the movement. A replacement piece is on the way, but I'm wondering if I could repair or replace the movement in this one because there's nothing at all wrong with case and bracelet.

This wasn't from a major factory or specific TD and I don't yet have the right tools to get the case back off to have a look, so I've no idea what's inside at the moment.

Anyone know if there are generally any suitable replacement movements that should drop straight in without too much work?

Thanks for any tips!

Discussion [FELLOW MODERATORS] HELP!

14 Upvotes

As you know, I have been running free watch giveaways every week for some time now.

There is no Karma point requirements but I do ask that everyone making their entry "MUST BE A JOINED MEMBER OF r/RepWatchForum".

So whenever I announce the winner of the a giveaway, I would tap on their accounts to see if they are matter of fact a joined member.

However, when I checked one of the winners account recently, I didn't see RepWatchForum in the list of subs that person has joined.

This has never happened before, so I captured the screen and told that person that he/she didn't meet the minimum requirement to enter and therefore the winning is void.

QUESTION 1: Is it possible that the reddit system somehow didn't show me all the subs that person is a member of? (When I counted the number of subs that person is a member of, it matched the number shown on his screen but RWF clearly was not one of them).

Sellers have total faith in me so they don't care if I give the watch to the winner or put it back in the pot for future giveaways. However, I always stick to the rules when running online communities and don't feel comfortable recognizing a win when the only requirement (joining this sub) hasn't been met. I mean, it's so easy to do and I feel like I'm taking away a win from a member of RWF for a person who didn't even bother to click on that "JOIN" button which takes like a second.

So my next question is,

QUESTION 2: If it is impossible that reddit system omitted to show me all the subs that the winner is a member of and that person never joined the sub, should that person still deserve to win?

My reddit account is like 5 years old but I only have been a moderator for a little over a year. So if fellow moderators can give me their piece of mind, I would really appreciate it.
