Somethings are just too good to be true.

So cool! great collections.

So my understanding from OP is:

1) he has amassed a truly great authentic collection of Rolex watches,
2) he also has a hobby in replica Rolex watches that includes things such as bleaching dials to make fake Daytonas look tropical?

I guess this is entirely possible? It wouldn't be the first time I fail to understand someone's seemingly contrasting passions.

Thats a stunning collection, just missing a Submariner.



Seriously a superb collection, congratulations

From the OP we can't tell if he only stopped wearing the real ones.

Lol!

Sold a sub to afford more fakes? Or sell fakes to buy real ones?

Very nice collection. Time for AP and Patek now

[Jimmy66]

Sweet collection. Love the colour.

I don't like an all black watch. They seem negative.

[Biscuit]

Great collection.

Sorry OP but you’re being called out for your replicas you posted (or someone who lives in the same apartment as you) on a replica watch forum and you’ve sold multiple watched on WUS (all images now removed) and some how you are suggesting you are posting rea watches?

Naaaaaah mate, straight cap. People do anything for clout.

Lots of newby posters trying to start a controversy here so I'm going to just say this once:

Point #1: Anything I post on this forum, Rolex Forums, Omega forums are 100% genuine. I challenge anyone to prove otherwise. Nothing ever posted on these forums contain anything promoting, advertising, representing, or falsely claiming anything about replica watches.

Point #2: Yes, of course I have purchased replica watches in the past. Like probably since 2006 back when I was still learning about watches. Some I bought because I wanted to see if it was worth spending big bucks on the real thing. Some just to learn about watches. Some like the vintage watches (6263, 5513, etc.) is because I don't trust buying the genuine as there is too much liability for Frankenstein pieces. So those are put together for my own personal entertainment and discussion on the replica forums.

They have no place in any other forum otherwise. Never once was a claim made on those said replica watches that they were real. There is a forum to talk about replicas and that is exactly where they reside. Not on WUS, TRF, or Omega Forums. So again, please take a look at any of my posts on those 3 forums and show me any photo of a replica watch and proof of it.

Point #3: I've been buying and selling on the forums for years now with zero negative feedback or complaint. Do you really think anyone could go a decade selling replicas posed as genuine watches for that long and have a perfect track record? For those curious by all means PM any individual I've ever done business with on Watchuseek and ask if you have the free time - which apparently a lot of you do.

So for all of you bashing, gossiping, etc. it's a public forum so do as you please if that is how you want to spend your time. But before you make such a claim like "that watch is fake" please prove it because one of us has receipts, warranty cards, AD relationships, etc. And the other...well I don't know because you don't have facts or supporting proof for your accusations and it is downright libelous.

I have no need to validate myself outside of my comments here and I will continue to provide valuable content, build relationships with great people who enjoy talking about timepieces, and enjoy the hell out of this hobby and whatever else I want to do with my time and my money.

Cheers and happy hump day!!

I don't buy that. Sorry.

This is something new here so Id like to add my humble opinion if you don't mind.

First I'd like to say that Nick was banned a long time ago because he posted a fake Pam. He was a long time and very kind member. He knew his watches very well so it was something inexcusable and I'm sorry that happened but I could not say a word in his defense. Having said that, I don't know if your watches are real at this point but I will not accuse you of anything otherwise I'm the one who will get banned, and I like to hang around here, so I will not question that.

However, as far as I can read it's not that you got there on the replica forum and asked questions like a newbie looking for infos that would help you distinguish real watches from fake ones. Quite the opposite. You're a senior member. Someone experienced on making fake vintage and modern Rolex watches look as real as possible. That's a different story IMO.

Look, we don't care about personal life here or what you do on your spare time. You can be whatever you want and do anything you want with your life and like I said we don't care. As long and you play by the book,respect other members and respect the rules you can be black or white, married or single, old or young, rich or poor, gay or straight, right or left and none of that matters. You don't even need to own a Rolex to be part of this forum but there's something that brings us all here together: we all like REAL Rolex watches. So, if you're a 2010 senior member on fake Rolex forum, using the same username that you use here, selling watches on other forums and posting almost the same pictures that you post here this is something beyond repair IMO. Bottom line is, if I had the right to vote on this board you'd not be a member here anymore. However, you don't need to worry about that because no one here listen to what I have to say and my opinion doesn't matter, but I'm sorry to say that you're not a member I'd trust here anymore. Take care.

You can post genuine watches on a replica forum. No rule against that. You cannot post replica watches on a genuine forum. All rules abided. You sir are making false allegations.

I have nothing more to say. Let the mods be the judge.
