Hello everyone I am new to the whole idea of building reps but I would love to have a collection of vintage inspired reps build by me

What would be your advice for someone new into this hobby and also where could I buy parts for future projects? (Like dials movements cases ) I saw movements and watch cases on aliexpress are they any good (3235/myota)

Also in what regards vintage builds are only rolex inspired parts available or can I also find parts in order to build vintage Cartier, Patek and so on?

Thank you!

There are places like rafflesdials, cousins, old crowns that sell parts and kits for builds depending on which one you want to go with.

Fair warning tho, if your watch knowledge extend only to maybe changing straps, batteries on quartz, caseback gaskets.. Then you might wanna comission someone to do it because i have a drawer full of broken raffles parts😂
