On its way from Creation Watches. (Any idea how long they usually take?)

Usually about 5 work days. Always top notch! I've ordered at least 4 watches of them in the past.

I like that, what's the number?

Cool, thanks. It shipped last Wednesday apparently so should be any time now I guess.

It's the SKX011.

I recognised it as an SKX, didn't know they do an orange one!
The worst thing I can say about Creationwatches is that they have horrible pictures that don't do the watches justice smile.

I’ve been looking for a Pepsi for a couple of months and the below arrived today. It’s the only Rolex I’ve ever fancied so I’m pleased, I just need to add a link to it. Excuse the crappy iPad picture.

I have bought the Didun through AliExpress and got it for £53. The same watch on eBay is over £100. The review on eBay is absolutely brilliant, and apparently the finish is outstanding. Sorry to anyone who hates homages, but I would have to sell both my cars to buy a real one. Unfortunately I ordered the watch 3 weeks ago and it hasn't left China yet. The seller has experienced my wrath on more than one occasion. He keeps using the Chinese new year as an excuse, whereas I ordered it a full week before it started. I just hate poor service !!

Looking at the Ali express reviews, the seller has a history of holding the watch for a while so that the buyer protection runs out before you get the item. Make sure you check it thoroughly and get any claim in quickly (or just get your card provider to do a chargeback). Shame, it looks like a decent homage.

Why would you go for the quartz though? There is an auto available.

I have ordered the automatic. The seller is Paris Store and it cost £53.95. I have checked the tracking info and it was shipped yesterday

Well the opportunity arose to grab a true grail of mine, so I've just taken possession of this beauty.









Sellers (rather good) pics for now.

The quality of this piece, especially the bracelet is just superb.

I'm very chuffed.

I do like that alot.

Seems unusual to see one a bracelet - not sure I have seen one before.

Is it a large watch?
