Products & Quality
What’s the difference between AAA, 4A, and Super?
AAA (Japanese Automatic) — excellent finish with a reliable everyday movement, from $175.99. 4A (Enhanced Automatic) — tighter tolerances, premium weight and feel, our most popular tier, from $263.99. Super (Swiss-grade movement) — Exact precision detail, the closest quality grade from factory models, from $593.99. See our Quality Tier Guide higher up this page for the full breakdown.
Are the watches automatic or battery-powered?
All three tiers feature automatic (self-winding) mechanical movements — no battery required. They wind naturally through the motion of your wrist, just like the originals.
Are the watches water-resistant?
Our watches are water-resistant for everyday wear — splashes, rain, and hand-washing are no problem. We don’t recommend swimming, diving, or hot showers, as replica gaskets aren’t rated to the original manufacturer’s depth specifications.

What payment methods do you accept?
We accept Visa, Mastercard, Maestro, and PayPal through a fully encrypted, secure checkout. Your payment details are protected on every order and are never stored on our servers.

Yes — the more you collect, the more you save: Buy 2 save $50 · Buy 3 save $120 + free shipping · Spend $500+ for a free watch box · Spend $900+ for a free box + screwdriver kit · 10+ watches unlock 30% off wholesale pricing.
