NOTE: There are so many sites selling Replica Watches and almost everyone describes their watches a different way. Its funny how some talk about Japan movements, Italian movement and we even saw one site saying their watches have Zenith movements in them. To get to the point, they will tell you anything with the hopes of getting your business. Real 18k solid gold, haha
No matter what they say, 99.9% of all the Replicas are made in China. China has the replica market tied up. The saying in China is "Everything in China is Fake except your Mother"
REPLICA WATCH REVIEW SITES - Most are owned by the site that is selling the watches they review. If you read close, you can figure that out.
There is one report out which is very very good about Replica Watches ... its called the REPLICA WATCH REPORT - its a very well put together information source and well worth the money. Buy it, he has the BEST REPORT & Information out there. Very Professional Report

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
QUALITY: We live in China and we can tell you exactly how it is ! Some production runs of the watches are perfect and the next time they make the run, quality can be poor. Its a shame to see a company make such a good replica and the next week see them making the same watch and its junk. Chinese mfgs do not care about quality, they care about making the product and selling it. They know you will buy it now and tomorrow you will be 10,000 miles away and they dont need to deal with the problem then.
OUR ADVANTAGE : Being that we live in China 100% of the time, we can check each and every watch for quality, if its not right, we dont buy it and look elsewhere for the quality we want. Do the other sites do this or do they have someone buy the watch for them and then ship to you ? This is what makes Watchcartel different. We know what we are sending you !
We are always happy to talk with you on the phone and talk about the watches and let you know whats going on in the Replica World. If you would like to talk, email us your phone number and the best time to call and we will be happy to contact you.
We want your business and we want your repeat business too. We will take care of you!
TOP LIES ABOUT REPLICA WATCHES
I read an excellent post over at Replica Geek that outlines all the lies surrounding replica watches. This list was written by AllergyDoc and I think it will be useful to anyone first discovering the replica watch industry.
Many arrive here with minds polluted by scam sites and scam "review" sites: all peddlers of lies and deception.
In an effort to help cleanse the noobs' minds of this filth, I propose the following 10 common and devious lies and misconceptions about replica watches, and the business of manufacturing and selling replica watches.
Lie #1: The best replica watches are made in Switzerland, followed closely by Italy.
-- This is the biggest lie of all. All replica watches are made somewhere in Asia, mostly China. Saying that replicas are made in Switzerland or Italy is a lie intended to extract more money from the ignorant.
Lie #2: Replica watches are graded according to quality. C (or whatever) is the lowest and AAA+++ (or whatever) is the highest.
-- Who decides what is "C" and what is "A"? The "International Replica Watch Governing Board"? Pure nonsense designed, again, to get more of your dollars.
Lie #3: The movements in "Swiss made" replicas are identical to the genuine watch movements. 27 jewel movements are the best.
-- (See Lie #1 for "Swiss made".) Far from the truth. Very few replica watch movements come from anywhere but China and any watchman can immediately tell it's not genuine. There are no 27 jewels movements in replica watches; only 25, 21, or 17.
Lie #4: The best replicas are 99% true to the genuine and will even fool an Authorized Dealer (AD).
-- Not true. While some may be close (picking a number is impossible) to the genuine, all replicas are flawed. Do you really think you can spend $200 or less and get a watch that's 99% identical to a $4,000-20,000 watch? As for fooling ADs, maybe. Common clerks are easily fooled, but seasoned ADs, upon close inspection, will know it's a replica.
Lie #5: The gold on "Swiss grade" replicas is much higher than on other replicas. The crown, bezel, and mid links are solid gold and the full-gold replicas are 5-wrapped (or 6-wrapped, or whatever).
-- While a few models have been shown to have solid gold mid links (Rolex replicas), the rest of the watch is gold plated or double or triple wrapped gold. ("Search" for threads on how this is done.)
Lie #6: The best Rolex replicas are made with 904L grade steel.
-- Big fat lie. Good replicas are made with 316L quality steel. Rolex is the only company that uses 904L steel and it costs 3 times as much as 316L (one reason why they are so expensive).
Lie #7: Buying a replica watch is risky, but not if you use sellers from "Replica Review" sites.
-- What most people don't know is the "review" sites are owned and operated by the people who run the sites they recommend--it's very incestuous. These "review" sites are clever and it's easy to get taken in by their lies.
Lie #8: You can tell you're getting a good watch after a thorough examination of the web site.
-- Please. If you think everything displayed on the web is true, you deserve to be fleeced. Scam sites lie about everything, from the quality of their goods to their pledge to make sure every customer is happy. Many even post pictures of genuine watches, (Look for pictures where the watch hands are set at "10:10." Pictures of genuine watches seen in advertisements are always set to "10:10.") but send you junk.
Lie #9: Picking a good seller will always result in getting a good watch, one I won't have trouble with.
-- We wish. Quality control in replica watch factories is hit-and-miss, but mostly shoddy. One batch may be great while the next produces watches that are DOA. (Remember, making replica watches is illegal, even in China. Replica watch "factories" are usually small operations that can be easily moved or hidden from prying authorities.) What is true, though, is a good dealer will want to protect his/her reputation and will fix whatever is wrong.
Lie #10: Paying by COD is the best way to get the cheapest price. Plus, I can examine my watch before paying the courier to make sure I get what I paid for.
-- A really dumb thing to do and a huge red flag that you're dealing with a true scammer. They want cash because they know you'll scream foul to your credit card company the moment you see the junk you just paid $1,000 for. and of course you have to give the cash to the driver before he will ever give you the package. Once you open the package, no giving it back to the driver or getting your money back. If the site takes Credit Cards or Paypal, the chances are good your going to get a better product because its easy to charge back a payment when you use these methods of payment.
