 I own a very early Rolex dateJust Replica That was given to me by a Family Member at a funeral for my Nearest and Dearest Friend who died at a mere 28 years old. They new I collected watches and wished me to have it.  They offered me the home he just purchased 6 mo's previous of his death at what he payed ( a mear 45,000) and even offered to finance the downpayment.  I respectfully denied as I don't think it would have felt right or a happy home.

I wear this replica one day a year, on the anniversary of his passing, and wear it proudly. Take it out for a little Beverage and show it off, than back in the vault for another year. 7 years passed and many more to grieve. But, Ya know what.  Thingy is nearly 25 years old I suspect and still Runs!!!!!!

Just my 2 cents worth..................

I really like how a few SWISS ROLEX Makers are actually building pieces with ETA-Valjoux, etc-Solid gold cases-Bracelets and Charging near 2000.00 Exact To a T Replicas.  Why not spend the extra and get the real deal????????? I seriously thought about one Early this year as I wanted a Sub-18kt Full Gold and the price for new is 22,500.00 CDN. At 1900.00 for a copy that would pass any eye except the red wheels on the movement.  Anyway, Lucked out a month later and found a 2004 Model for 9500.00USD...........PAID TO hold out and overide Temptation.  Now, I could probably double my initial investment, and in years to come???????????????

$$$ CHING-CHING$$$ HAHA
