Icon12 DSSD with White Face?

Came across this video on YouTube of a "High Quality Replica Deepsea"

Take a look at the face.

You would think if they were going to call it a replica they would try to make it like the original. Who buys that crap?

If you look at the forum rules, you will see that we do not talk about replicas, etc.

Please excuse my ignorance. I thought it was illegal to make "replica" watches, but I get e-mails all the time advertising them.

Lets call this thread the Titanic. I'll be surprised if I even get to post this before it closes.

Yeah that thing is so bad. It's just poor in ever possible way. White dial ? No thanks.

Oh dude, you've got a lot to learn about this place. While I agree with you, IBTL...

Raymond,

This has nothing to do with Free Speech whatsoever, we just avoid talking about an illegal activity made to rip people off their money by selling them items that don't have the quality they're expecting at all (whether they're advertised as replicas or not). An activity that, to paraphrase Rob (Sleddog), involves the working of children and that is often supervised by organized crime.

We have a WatchOut!!! section made to report items that we believe are fake but it isn't made for discussion of the subject either. For this, there are plenty of other forums all over the net.

P.S.: I'm not trying to play the moderator or anything, my apologies if it looks like it.

P.P.S.: IBTL

Interesting point, there are some grey areas,...

Take it easy, Raymond. Thread has not been shut down yet. When it is, your judgement could worth some thoughts.

This is a private forum, which is free for people to use, as long as they comply with the few, simple rules. Freedom of speech has nothing to do with anything here; you can abide by the owner's wishes, or, if this "lack" of "free speech" is too much for you, you can set up your own forum and talk about anything you choose, to your heart's content.

Haha! Some of you guys are too tightly wound, relax a bit. He was just making an observation about the watch, not condoning or condemning it.

Btw, I agree that rules are rules and this shouldn't be discussed here but maybe a little less harsh words when pointing it put to members.

I bet a huge percentage of you would buy a white dial DSSD if Rolex made one! Just sayin....I know I would.

That's quite alright. You can use the money to support criminals and buy a fake watch instead
