not yet it looks tempting until you realise the prices are in dollars and we are only getting $1.4 to the pound

Nat thanks for listing the bad sites........earlier on you said the site in this thread was an ok one do you know of any better ones?
what watches have you got real ones and replicas?

Anthony Xu also runs helloreplica, if you notice all of his sites are set out exactly the same.

Just a note on his buy 3 get the 4th free, its a bottom of the range $105 dollar watch you get free.

He has so many sites to lessen the blow if one or more is shut down.

He deals from the USA, and is regarded as a reliable replica dealer, he will only use photos of the actual watch he is dealing, and thats the watch you get.

He will give you a tracking number and his sites are secure.

He will also speak to you in person.

His warranty looks good, but Ive never used it, or bought from him, but as I have said, I have properly examined one of his watches and it was of exceptional quality.

Some thing that would worry me if I was to buy.....he has a no quibble money back offer withing 12 days....this to me means you could be buying a watch that some one has worn and then sent back.

At the end of the day though they are... fake/blag/counterfeit/knockoff/delboy/snide/immitation watches, so for a top notch one like the one I took apart I would say it was well worth a measly £220 GBP.

PS. In the last three weeks he has sold 10 fold the amount of SeaDweller DeepSea's than he did in the month of January, so come on own up..

I bought this
Panerai Luminor Marina Swiss ETA Unitas 6497 Movement-Full Titanium Case Panerai watch
back in January after a thread on here earlier in the year. Had the watch (which I am very pleased with) about 8-9 days later.
I got mine with a black strap as I have a REAL Tag Monza Calibre 36 with a brown croc strap. I mailed the place and always heard back the next day.

I thought it was a bargain considering a replacement strap for my Tag is £200! Watch came in a plain brown box, nothing extra (tax) to pay. Was about £230 I think now the rates are crap. Wish I had seen the site earlier!

i think with replica watches alot of them with the metal straps/bracelets are very loose between the links and rattle about too much and instead of having screws have pins which are all a give away of a fake watch.
so prob best to go for a leather strap that way its harder to tell and more comfortable anyway lol

i like this one it looks like it has a light on it does anyone know?

They don't have lights, they are not Casio's

The blue tint is just reflection from the dome glass on that model. Looks nice, though not a gold fan.

I would agree with Nat about the straps. They are nice but not the quality of a real high end watch.
I got mine with black leather to be different from my other watch but will order the rubber strap from them as that was the whole point of me ordering another watch, a watch that could with stand a bit of sweat and not rot the leather.
The rubber straps they sell look exact to the real ones.
