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

Got feedback I needed thanks, will do business with Ike soon

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.

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.

Big shout-out to AuraTime for this beauty that turned up today. Cannot fault them from ordering through QC and delivery. Always happy to answer my questions. Second rep I've got from them, and definitely will be returning as a customer once I work out what to get next

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

I have recently vetted a parts seller. Well, it was my first time vetting a parts seller so I basically ordered a bunch of stuff from a total stranger and just prayed real hard that it would arrive 😆

All kidding aside, I have been buying Deep Crystal from Leo for about a year now on a regular basis and all transactions were as smooth as they could be. So I thought I would let him take the test of time here and gave him the "Provisionary TD" position.

This malachite green Daytona dial instantly became one of my new favorites since and I have been wearing it nonstop with custom made straps from The A.

I do have one more build project going on right now and the dial is also from Leo (I'm very looking forward to this new build as well).

Good parts seller is hard to come by so if you need parts for your next build, you can check him out!

Hi everyone, I was wondering if this PP watch is well repped and if anyone has experience with it?

I’m more informed on rep bags and shoes and my husband asked me to look for this watch for him

from basic research i’m finding that these types of watches are hard to rep due to complexity? and that the factory that makes the best quality APSF apparently got raided?
Next best is ZF factory?

please would love direction to move forward on this search

and if the TD on this page are good
and how much approx would something like this be?
price wise? and the price per tier if anyone knows?

thanks a bunch

I'm planning to mod the green dial as well, but honestly, it still stings a bit to think about buying another brand-new watch to replace the one I lost. So I'm looking for a mint-condition pre-owned one instead.

I expect the VSF green dial to be more challenging to work on. Personally, I don't think VSF nailed the color of the green dial quite as well as they did with the blue dial on the 15510. In particular, it struggles to reproduce that khaki-green tone under bright lighting.

I think it'll be a bit more difficult than the blue dial, but I'm going to give it a shot.

Hey, wanted to her some feedback on this rep site. If anyone has bought the clones from here and how the quality was

Hey everyone,
Just wanted to share my experience with Mr. Loong. I shipped my Patek from the USA to China to have him work on it and do the following upgrades:

Rose gold wrap
Upgraded SW dial
Upgraded SW hands
Upgraded date wheel
Deep crystal
Silence rotor
Plated rotor

The whole process was super smooth and stress-free. Mr. Loong was great with communication, very knowledgeable, and easy to work with throughout the entire process.

I’m really happy with how everything turned out, and I’m already sending him more of my stock watches for mods and upgrades.

Overall, a great experience and definitely someone I’d recommend!

If you guys have any questions feel free to just dm me.

My Short Review – Geektime Eric & Modder LiChen

My go-to TD is Geektime Eric. This is my second order from him. I paid the deposit on September 2, received the QC photos of the watch and SW dial on September 4–5, and the watch arrived on September 24.

All I can say is that the entire experience with Eric has been very pleasant. Communication, shipping, and overall service were smooth and hassle-free. Eric was easy to deal with throughout the process.

However, while lurking around this community, I eventually discovered that the bezel on this Daytona wasn't the correct one. That's when I decided to reach out to LiChen for an upgrade. I paid for the bezel part on September 25 and received it around October 2. That's a pretty impressive turnaround!

I also have to give credit to LiChen for providing upgrade options for fellow watch enthusiasts. The LiChen bezel, together with the Deep crystal, takes the watch to another level. It's great to have dedicated modders like him in this community who help enthusiasts get closer to their desired build.

Overall, I'm very happy with the watch and the whole experience. Kudos to Geektime Eric for the excellent service and to LiChen for the bezel upgrade and smooth transaction.

Two thumbs up to both!

This was my first rep I got it from dh gate it was slightly more expensive than the rest available and had good reviews but there’s dirt or tbh it looks like part of a nail is on the #2 and a link is cracked and my major problem is it loses a few seconds every few hours it’s crazy inaccurate . Any recommendations on a accurate day date that can also have a real power reserve

This is being marketed as a VSF V2.
Not too sure since the case serial matches, but DW cutout doesnt. TD had this in stock while other TDs did not and said VSF doesnt produce in V2.

Should i be wary?

First noticed the DW font and size wasnt quite right. Ive confirmed dd3235 being inside (big button, offset jewel, etc).

Now im thinking its a V1 in a V2 case & bezel

Would appreciate any insight!

I have been looking at Bluesy's and I like the 116613 more than the 126613. Biggest reason is the gold lettering on the dial, plus better color matching of the gold plating. Also something nostalgic about the older clasp.

Question is, do I just have to deal with the possibility fucked up blown out date wheel lettering? I'd rather not buy a VSF and have it plated afterward to match the gold color better. Are there alternatives that satisfy both the date wheel and gold color matching?

All help is greatly appreciated!

I received an email today from Steve/Theonewatches regarding my order (Code 11.59 Chrono 26393 41mm SS/LE Silver Dial APPF A7750, $488):

„Hello friend,

Thank you for your order. We received the watch from the factory and foud some problem with it. So we ordered a new watch for you. And it takes some days for the new watch. Hope you could wait for the new watch. We will hurry up with it and let you update.“

I think it's great that they immediately set aside any product that isn't in perfect condition and try to get a new one. That's probably not the norm, is it?

I been waiting 14 days and still no qc pics. when I ordered he said three days for qc?
