Service and Support — What to Do If a Replica Breaks Down

Hey guys, I’ve got a question. I bought a replica GMT a few months ago, and it’s been running fine until recently — now it randomly stops for no reason. I don’t want to toss it, but I’m not sure where to get it fixed. Do these replicas even come with any kind of warranty or after-sales support? I doubt a regular watch shop would touch it, but maybe someone here’s been in the same boat?

Yeah, that happened to me too. The rotor on mine came loose after about half a year. I got it from a site that sells the best clone gmt master ii, and they actually helped me out. They don’t have an official “warranty,” but they offered replacement parts and guided me to a local watch tech who knows how to handle clone movements. It wasn’t expensive either — way cheaper than sending a real Rolex for service.

A friend of mine collects watches and always keeps a small toolkit for basic maintenance. He’s not a pro, but he’s managed to fix minor issues like stuck rotors or loose hands on replicas himself. He says most of these movements are based on common Asian calibers, so finding parts online isn’t too hard. Probably not ideal for everyone, but if you’re handy, it can save a ton of hassle.
