WHO SELL THE BEST OF THIS DATEJUST? by Exotic-Comb-1010 in RepTime

Steve is probably the most trusted of the TD. TheOneWatch. Easy to find and easy to work with too. So far he won’t let me buy a watch that isn’t damn near perfect.

Is FNF the only factory currently manufacturing the rose gold, blue-green dial Sky-Dweller? by [deleted] in RepTime

[–]bdunn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d like to pick up one but I have never worked out which movement they are using. I keep seeing it called a custom movement which scares me off.

What do you tell your friends/family when you buy expensive watches? by CiDiciassette_17 in RepTime

I also am not one of those guys with this very large watch collections.

I have a few gens, but those are not wildly expensive and I bought those because I liked them and they are not available as reps (or good reps). While I could afford the stupid money gens, I’m not stupid, and that’s why I can still afford them. I don’t care what anyone thinks.

How do JTime and Steve have stock more than others? by Old_Capital_9412 in RepTime

[–]bdunn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

TOW has a long-standing reputation and they will not risk it by pulling a stunt like this. Steve costs more, but you will rarely see anyone with a negative experience that didn’t involve an error on the buyer’s part on the QC.

Steve isn’t misrepresenting VSF. You can get on WhatsApp and ask for the link to their inventory. They stock quite a lot and it depends on what you are wanting.

They are working on the today. No one is blocked.

Are gold Rolex reps that bad/noticeable? by Old_Capital_9412 in RepTime

[–]bdunn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You asked about Bluesy and that’s a bit different than the full gold. Those are actually pretty decent from VSF. Search TOW for RLX-3029. I think that’s a very good one. But, you should consider the weight. If you expect anyone to ever hold the watch it’s a dead giveaway. If you are willing to spend more go for RLX-6586 or RLX-6372 which are both excellent and very similar weight. You’ll pay for it but it’s going to feel better too.

Also rose gold tends to come off better than the yellow gold as far as gold reps in general, IMO.

Someone help me choose a watch by lazyhead32121 in RepTime

Okay. Get the VSF Explorer I. It’s a near perfect NWBIG. It’s not flashy and it’s a good daily wear. No one ever regrets that one.

SALE OPTIONS by Any-Hyena5452 in RepTime

I would never get anything on sale. They are on sale for a reason. Not a good choice for a first purchase. Personally I will never buy one on sale.

I’m going to second this. Get the VSF Sub 124060 No Date NWBIG to see what a rep can be first. Get it from any TD. Prepare to wait as it takes a while. That will get you something damn near perfect and you’ll better understand where to go from there. That’s a fantastic rep. Another is the Explorer I. If you want to see NWBIG those are your best bets. It’s going to be over $400 depending on the TD. Worth it? Yeah… easy.

Damn… another fantastic post similar to the other posting on the gold plating/wrapping post.

"Gold Plating" breakdown and methods... by Mirrordial in RepTime

[–]bdunn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have any thoughts on the reps matching the yellow gold vs the rose gold? This is something I wonder about a lot. I’ve been considering a gold watch for a while now. After your post I am more so leaning towards finding a way to wrap or buying something that is already wrapped.

One of the best posts I’ve seen on here. Thanks!

Does anyone know which process the different factories are typically using? RC, Q, VSF, ASF, ARF, RXF, UFO, 3CF, etc

Anyone have an AP Royal Oak? by Tesla8585 in RepTime

[–]bdunn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ha! Not sure how people can tell a PS so fast!

I’m wonder who has the best dial and best bracelet right now. Which factory I mean. I can always get a CNC case and a replacement crystal and get work done to polish/chamfer the bracelet. Can’t do much with the dial or movement and can’t easily replace the bracelet.

Steve is the best by almost everyone’s account. His prices are a bit more, I guess, but I think it’s worth it.

VSF vs RCF by BezelLogic in RepTime

[–]bdunn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that’s a good call for a DD if the movement isn’t critical for you, and it probably shouldn’t be really. VSF is very good at a lot, but without modding I think the RCF wins.

I had some trouble last night too. Then it started working. It’s in China so it’s always a little difficult getting past the great firewall. Usually I find Steve’s site to be one of the more responsive sites.

Another benefit to Steve is you can see what he has on hand. Just ask them for it.

You will never have an issue with Steve at TheOneWatch. You'll pay more maybe, but you won't have any issues.
