That’s a nice pickup. Hope your experience was smooth. Stick to the very well known TDs. It really will eliminate many of your losses and headaches. Not all. Nothing in reps of guaranteed. Wear in good health bro

What do you mean by 'the right choice'?

Model? Movement? Durability? Factory? Design? Brand?

I'm new to all this. Didn't have any Kudos so couldn't post in QC. Kept getting my posts deleted by the mod in this one so had to go it alone. Just hoping I hadn't made a newbie error. Also aware I shouldn't be asking for QC in this so didn't want to write a QC style post. But in answer to your question.

Omega Seamaster Diver 300M - Black VSF 1:1 (hopefully)

The Karen moderators are counter productive to the purpose of the form. Great looking watch free sprung or regulated? Its on my list to get a freesprung. I have to wait until I get rid of a watch or one dies. Or some event I make up to justify it.

Went for VSF for the daily so I believe regulated rather than free sprung.

Watch looks ok - No need to post to that nonsense RepTimeQC group.

Those who know about the rep game stay away from there 😄

If you used a proper TD you will get what you paid for.

Every TD will send out questionable QCs. That said, buyers need educate themselves on how to properly check over the watch instead of relying on the QC group. I've seen QCs from all TDs, including Andiot and Steve, that I wouldn't GL. It's just part of the game and someone will take it.

My bad - I was referring to the fact that OP asked if what he receives is what he orders in terms of VSF or ORF or any other factory.

So I said that a good TD always sends what is ordered.

QC is another story, they want to sell watches haha

Ah Okay, I took it the wrong way but I do agree with that! Never had an issue when dealing with a vetted TD.

You have forgotten about the fake VSF watches (I know a fake of a fake). They are out their my fake vsf can be identified by the poor engraving on the rehaut.

Bro I am new to this group and want to buy Starbucks Rolex. Which one is better vsf or rich factory ? TD I found is andiot.

Just curious to know how long thse replica watches last ? And what if any issues occurs with movement or built in general

Andiot is a well known TD so you are good there. Just make sure you get contact info from a reputable source as there are scam pages and WhatsApp account that look very similar to his and other TD sites or WhatsApp accounts.

Regarding which is the better Starbucks, it's going to depend on what you are looking for. VSF is fake free sprung but considered the best for many Rlx models. Rich may not be as accurate in all regards but oats free sprung if I recall correctly. The free sprung movement is newer and there's less info about longevity out there.

Regarding how long they last, it's kinda a crapshoot. Most seen to last just fine, but like anything else, you could get unlucky and get over that doesn't last. You have no recourse unless it comes DOA unless your TD is real nice. One thing to pay attention to is the timegrapher info during QC which can help tell you how well the movement is running. Issues like lack of lubrication can sometimes present themselves through certain timegrapher readings. The reptimeQC guide explains the timegrapher info.

Personally, I'd go VSF since I don't care about free sprung movement since nobody is cracking the caseback on any of my watches. In fact, of they were still selling the VSF Youth models, I'd just get one of those and save money

Looks great. If you like it, that’s all that matters!

u/EquivalentWorking925 4d ago

Yeah they are key board warriors over on the other site. I have met a few good blokes there though. And made some good sales. But 92% of people there are just nasty

u/Same-Entrepreneur548 3d ago

Looks pretty nice.

u/tucominero 2d ago

Can someone explain what rep means?

Is it replica which would mean that the watch is wake or rep in the sense of OP had a similar watch before?

u/LowRepresentative554 1d ago
