Question

I just recieved an email linking a site (america i think) which sells replicas. Looking at a Rolex submariner there's 2 versions - italian rolex and rolex datejust, the datejust is only $65 and the detail in the photos looks very good.
Has anyone else bought one of these? the site is ATGWS

i know it's not genuine but for the price if it lasts a year or so it'll be worth it

65$ is a rip off. I dought one in Tunisia for £4, and it looked the business. If I'd spent a fiver, I could have had one that said "Rolex" instead of "Roliex"....

Just get a proper one (with the quality to go with it) from eBay. Example

robby - actually I've changed my mind - I think getting a cheap replica is the right thing for you

Seriously though - you want cool - there are some bargains to be had. Me, I've a v. small collection of 1970's LED watches - which personally I think are v. cool.

Here's one I have, which is my fave

You'll get some real bargains if you hunt a round and don't go for the normal Rolex, Tag jobbies. It'll also stand out a little.
