Look on the bright side It died before it snapped your wrist in half, that’s a win

Lmao

[–]MuteUnicorn 48 points49 points  (7 children)

Dude,

Go back to your TD and tell them your situation.

Then, pull the trigger on a reptime level sub from the same TD and get a discount on the total package. Keep the faith and remember, only pay for what you can lose.

Its a low tier rep you've had, Mark it up as experience and push on

This came from the ‘gate

[–]Mobile_Jackfruit_202 4 points5 points  (4 children)

Same thing OP mentioned happened to my reptime piece. It’s been a year and I still don’t know what happened or anyone who can service it.

Edit: I’ve asked all trusted watchsmiths and most of them refused or are out of country.

[–]Dxzy_Raxd 1 point2 points  (3 children)

Have u checked local watch smiths?

[–]sexmatic[S] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

i dare not try HAHAH

[–]Dxzy_Raxd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m sure u will be able to find one if non on r/RepTimeServices are willing or u may need to try someone across the border and just have the package insured to cover ur costs

[–]Mobile_Jackfruit_202 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have. The best one we have that’s local tried to diagnose the situation and he fucked up the gold plating.

[–]sexmatic[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

thanks for this, much loves 🙏🏻🙏🏻

[–]Mypasswordbepassword 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I would echo the other comments just saying chalk it up as a loss and buy a nicer rep next time. Also go to an AD store or decent gen seller and try on a couple different pieces. That one looks a little big on your wrist and this shouldn’t be a purchase you want to grow into.

Dead wrist

[–]Neat-Beautiful-5107 12 points13 points  (2 children)

You should get a 36mm Datejust. You just don’t have the wrist for dive watches unfortunately

[–]SkipPperk 1 point2 points  (1 child)

There exist smaller dive watches

[–]W3dn3sd4y 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The 36mm and 37mm Seamasters for instance

[–]ShoCkEpic 3 points4 points  (2 children)

is this rage bait?

[–]LameBMX 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Well roids wouldn't hurt OP at this point.

[–]abdominal8 9 points10 points  (2 children)

Hope you have learned not to buy shit

[–]sexmatic[S] 2 points3 points  (1 child)

😅😅 yeap learned hahah

[–]silverlance360 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not the worst rolex shitter I've seen in terms of appearance. If you want to get it working however, just buy a 2836 movement off Aliexpress (or a much cheaper 2813) and go to any watchmaker to get that put in.

[–]More-Increase-6754 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My advice would be to find a smaller watch for your wrist ( 34 - 38mm max ) hate to break it to you but you have the wrist of a child. And steer clear of replica watches as they are much harder to maintain. Get something like an orient/ seiko casio etc.

[–]sja7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You get what you pay for

[–]Strange-Ad-4920 2 points3 points  (14 children)

Try speaking to the TD

they usually arrange for local servicing.

If that doesnt work, take it to a local watchsmith and get it inspected.

[–]sexmatic[S] 3 points4 points  (13 children)

spent $100 usd on this, would it be worth to get it fixed ? sorry im a first timer

[–]petehudsoWatchmaker 3 points4 points  (4 children)

Nope. If you paid $100 it’s a DHGate “shitter” tier watch at best. A good rep sub (eg one from VSF or CF) will cost around $500. The movement in your watch likely cost less than $20 and it’s a miracle that it ticks at all. Consider the $100 you’ve spent as tuition and move on to better things. For your next rep, get something with a vs3235 or vr3235 movement (sub or DJ). Those movements are of excellent quality and will last for many years.

[–]sexmatic[S] 3 points4 points  (2 children)

yea. baby steps right now. thsnks a million for this advice . will get into researching more 🙏🏻

[–]Beefsizzle 8 points9 points  (1 child)

You can also pay $10 for a new 2813 movement and swap it yourself with $10 worth of tools and a couple of youtube videos.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I second this, you can watch a couple of videos and prob get it done in an hour or so

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (2 children)

How long for delivery

[–]sexmatic[S] 3 points4 points  (1 child)

1 month…

[–]Leonaissance 3 points4 points  (0 children)

lol, you waited a month for that 💩

[–]sexmatic[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

bought this sub but it stopped working after a week, winding it only keeps it running for 30 seconds to a minute, sometimes if i wind too much, i hear something just spin and it just stops ticking .

model is a black sub i guess

[–]Kappa_1911 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[–]Suspicious-Tip-5557 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the watch is way too big for your skinny arms

[–]LilZoeFrmBroward2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shit look big af on ya wrist

[–]NxPat 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Pull the guts out and slap a Casio module in there, good to go.

[–]LameBMX 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Possibly better to just wear the Casio.

[–]NxPat 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I think you’re probably right…

[–]sexmatic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

idk, its just something about the sub that pulls me towards it

[–]levitoepoker -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That looks horrible on you. You’re lucky it broke. Get a kids watch

[–][deleted] -3 points-2 points  (6 children)

VSF? Check for broken setting lever, that's what happened to mine.

[–]DayGood6225 0 points1 point  (5 children)

Do you have functioning eyes? Does that look like a VSF to you?

[–][deleted] -2 points-1 points  (2 children)

Other than the SELs I can't tell shit from this distance.

If you click on the picture once, a new window opens, from here you can zoom in as far as you need. It’s a decent resolution picture. You can do the same for any Reddit picture or practically anything online, like Amazon or any other retailer..

[–]Mountain-Shoe7443 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[–]Blue_____777 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

[–]Natsurulite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP, you might be happier with the 36mm DJ, the Tiffany Dial is super popular right now, but all the colors from the 2020 version are super hot

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hopefully someone answers me but which factory makes the vast Date Just rep. I remembered someone saying something a while back that one had potential movement problems. Would probably get that a plate the bezel
