Man files lawsuit against jeweller for not selling him promised $109K US perfect fake Patek Philippe after building up $220K purchase history

When this story surfaced on SiliconValley.com, it was immediately circulated amongst #watchfam on Instagram – and for good reason. People are sick and tired of enigmatic waitlists, and the inability to purchase the luxury replica watches they want at retail. The “unobtanium” phenomenon has buyers understandably furious. One commonly held belief surrounding how to best increase your chances of getting a highly coveted watch at retail is the notion that buyers simply need to build up purchase history to get the watch they ultimately want. This involves expensive purchases that are often not the high end fake watches us a buyer actually wants. They are instead stepping stones towards the end goal fake watch. But, as one Bay Area client learned the hard way, even this commonly advised avenue is not so clear cut.

This is where the news surrounding watch buyer Ali Rezaei, and his lawsuit against Shreve & Co, comes to the forefront. The story goes that Rezaei visited his local 1:1 replica Patek Philippe authorised dealer to express an interest in purchasing a highly sought after cheap copy Patek Phillipe Nautilus 5980/1R-001 chronograph that commands a retail price of US$108,820. But, his expression of interest was swiftly rejected. Nothing is particularly fishy about that, as most people would face the same fate upon an initial request. It would take VIP status for a retailer to offer such a reference to a collector, and he would need to build his relationship, or more aptly purchase history, with the retailer before such an allocation would be offered.

According to the lawsuit filed in San Francisco County Superior Court, Rezaei alleges he was told: “That if he built up his ‘purchase history’ by buying a sufficient amount of other merchandise over time… they would offer the Promised Watch to him.”

So, with his eyes set on getting an allocation, Rezaei decided to play ball – purchasing US$220K worth of goods from Shreve & Co in the name of getting his promised AAA quality fake Patek Philippe 5980/1R-001.

Ethan Baron of SiliconValley.com explains: “Rezaei soon bought a different gold Patek Philippe replica for sale from Shreve, for $71,000, his lawsuit claimed. Then he picked up another timepiece by the legendary Swiss watchmaker, this time a women’s model ringed with diamonds, for $50,000. Then he bought a third high quality fake Patek Philippe from Shreve, for $47,000. Finally, after he shelled out $53,000 for a gold and diamond necklace in March last year, a shop salesman assured him Shreve “would offer him the Promised Watch that year”, the lawsuit alleged. That offer never came.

Watch manufacturers tend to underpromise and overdeliver. For example, most watches are tested quite far beyond their pledged depth rating or, in some instances, top quality fake watches us can be more accurate than their stated parameters. Watch retailers, on the other hand, tend to do the opposite. At best, a retailer will not get your hopes up unnecessarily and will simply advise that such highly sought-after watches are typically reserved for their most loyal and high-spending clients. Where Shreve & Co. possibly took things too far is if they actually did promise Rezaei an allocation by the “end of the year” in exchange for accumulated purchase history as the lawsuit alleges.

This story, however, has one last interesting twist. At some point during Rezeai’s 18-month US$220K spending spree, the company knew it was no longer going to be an authorised dealer for Swiss movement replica Patek Philippe.

Ethan Baron explains: “Shreve — which in 1887 became the second U.S. jeweller in the U.S. to represent Patek Philippe super clone online, according to the company — knew as early as November 2021 when it sold him the women’s watch that it was losing its status as a best fake Patek Philippe dealer and would not be able to sell him the 5980/1R-001, the lawsuit claimed.”

So, what is Rezaei ultimately accusing them of? And, what compensation is he seeking? Ethan Baron explains: “His lawsuit accused Shreve of offences including fraud, false promise, breach of contract, and intentional and negligent misrepresentation. He is seeking at least $500,000 in damages.”

I am not an attorney, so I cannot speak to his odds of winning or losing the case. But, what I can be certain of is that Rezaei has the whole super clone watch enthusiast community rooting for him!

Ed Sheeran is the only person in the world with the luxury replica watches US

Here is a short list of things that elite watch nerds like Ed Sheeran know are incredibly hot in the fake watch world right now (or always have been):

The Replica Audemars Piguet Royal Oak
Ceramic, the hard-wearing scratch-proof material, that brands like perfect replica Audemars Piguet and Hublot frequently use to make pieces in bright showstopping colours
“Panda” dials (meaning a white dial with black sub registers)
Until now, however, there hasn’t been a watch that combined this holy trinity into one single piece. That all changed when Ed Sheeran wore this 1:1 fake Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar at the Country Music Awards in Texas last week.

A representative for AAA fake Audemars Piguet confirms this is a unique Royal Oak made specifically for Sheeran. The singer’s watch is inspired by one of the brand’s existing perpetual calendars, which is also made out of ceramic but with a navy dial. Sheeran’s version is really striking, with a full snow-white dial and a quartet of intense black subdials. Of course, it’s a watch only a super-collector like Sheeran – who moonlights as a Hodinkee contributor – would have.

Sheeran is a fan of collecting and producing unique replica watches for sale like this one. He owns another custom Royal Oak: a black-and-gold chronograph with an eight-point star at 12 o’clock to symbolise August (the eighth month), when his daughter was born. He also wears a custom-made, black-and-red, Darth Maul-looking Nautilus with his initials on it. Sheeran loves unique pieces so much, he teamed up with Tudor to produce a series of watches for the crew who worked on his Divide tour. Still, this new white-and-black top super clone Audemars Piguet US might be the best of the bunch.

Lionel Messi’s Replica Audemars Piguet Royal Oak
Last year, Swiss movement fake Audemars Piguet celebrated the 50th anniversary of its flagship Royal Oak. The brand spun the watch out in a wide range of special-edition flavours to commemorate the occasion. The smoked green dial might not be the flashiest in the collection – which also included full yellow-gold tourbillon pieces and skeleton dials – but celebrities like Messi have gravitated toward it since its release.

Tommy Hilfiger’s Copy Patek Philippe Nautilus
The Tiffany-blue cheap fake Patek Philippe Nautilus is like Where’s Waldo?: You never know where you’re going to spot it, but it’s always exciting when you do. It was a pretty safe bet the watch would appear at the F1 race in Miami, but who would have guessed it would be on the wrist of fashion designer Hilfiger? This is the hype watch to end all hype copy watches online. When it was first released, it sold at auction for $5.6 million. Clearly, there isn’t a watch collector that can resist this piece: it’s attracted Leonardo DiCaprio, architect Daniel Abraham, and now Hilfiger.

Hands-on The US Perfect Replica Patek Philippe Calatrava 24-Hour Travel Time 5224R

Among the numerous complications available in luxury replica Patek Philippe’s collections, the Travel Time system for the display of a second time zone (with two centre hour hands, one of which can be adjusted backwards or forwards in one-hour steps) has become a classic, with proven practicality when travelling. Paired with pushers to adjust the additional time zone, and most of the time with two day-night indicators, it has been seen in multiple best quality replica watches; the best-known model probably being the Aquanaut Travel Time 5164A. Of course, it has later been used in the singular US 1:1 fake Patek Philippe Calatrava Pilot 5524, in the technically-advanced Aquanaut Advanced Research 5650, or combined with various complications, such as a chronograph in the Nautilus 5990 or the brand new Calatrava Pilot 5924, or with an annual calendar in the 5326 or even a complex alarm in the 5520.

However, how good the system is – those two + and – pushers on the left side are very practical indeed when you need to adjust the local time – they also make these super clone watches us sporty, quite unusual on the wrist and this Travel Time system isn’t particularly suited for an elegant watch. And also, the dial that requires two independent day-and-night indicators (one for the local time, one for home time) necessarily loses some sleekness.
Enters the AAA replica Patek Philippe Calatrava 24-Hour Display Travel Time or reference 5224R. The idea behind this watch was simple; offering a traveller’s model within the elegant case of a Calatrava, with a clean display – meaning, no additional function visible, no holes or apertures… Just the sleek, elegant look that will always be associated with a Swiss copy Patek Philippe Calatrava. Visually speaking, the mission has been achieved. The 5224R could almost be seen as a time-only watch with a small second sub-dial, save for the additional centre hand. And as you’ve noticed probably there are no pushers on the side, and no recessed correctors in the caseband.

So, how did cheap replica Patek Philippe got rid of the pushers and the small day-night windows… The answer lies in an original display, with all the hours of the day and night displayed at once on the dial. While it is fairly common to have the additional time zone (a.k.a home time) displayed on a 24h scale, here both hour hands rotate around the dial in this daily manner. It indeed means a display of local time and home time by two centre hands turning on a 24-hour circle, and thus no need anymore for the busy windows for day-night indication. The result is, however, a copy watch with an unconventional display that will, without a doubt, require some adaptation.

The design of this high quality replica Patek Philippe Calatrava 24-Hour Display Travel Time is directly inspired by another original watch in the collection, the Calatrava Weekly Calendar 5212A – an elegant yet casual watch that I’ve always loved… We have here the same overall design for the case, with a thin bezel, sharp angles, elongated, tapered lugs with a stepped profile (called curved two-tier lugs by Patek Philippe copy for sale US) and a thin profile – 10.2mm in height. However, the new Travel Time 5224R is larger at 42mm in diameter and made of 18k pink gold, giving it more presence and demonstrativeness on the wrist. Nothing shouting or loud, but a bit of the same feeling as when the Chronograph 5070 was launched.

As for the mechanics, the Swiss movement fake Patek Philippe Calatrava 5224R relies on one of the brand’s best base calibres, the 31-260. Initially developed for the 2011 Annual Calendar Regulator Reference 5235 (also in rose gold here), it was later entirely reworked in 2021 for the In-Line Perpetual Calendar Reference 5236P. Patek Philippe replica for sale gave this base movement a 4hz frequency, 20% more barrel-spring torque, a micro-rotor in platinum that is heavier than gold and thus brings better winding power and a reduction wheel that uncouples the self-winding mechanism when the watch is being manually wound and thus reduces wear. Additionally, the shape of the bridges was also reworked with a desirable series of retro-styled finger bridges.

Last year, with the launch of the Annual Calendar Travel Time 5326G, top quality fake Patek Philippe once again worked on this movement and developed several innovations, leading to eight patent applications. Three of them are used in the Swiss fake Patek Philippe Calatrava 24-Hour Travel Time 5224R. Visible through the sapphire caseback, the movement retains its handsome architecture with finger bridges (one for each of the wheels of the gear train) and the platinum micro-rotor. Relatively thin at 3.7mm, it allows for the 5224R to be a proper Calatrava with a slender case. Most of the work has been done on the correction of the time zone, as Patek Philippe super clone paypal replaced the traditional correction pushers for local time on the left-hand flank of the case with a patented correction system using the crown pulled out to the intermediate position (backwards and forwards adjustment in one-hour steps), a system already used on the 5326G. The other modification concerns the gears for the central local hours, which are now displayed on a 24-hour base.

US Swiss Made Fake Patek Philippe Grand Complications

Let’s kick things off with a big one — the Grandmaster Chime 6300GR, for the first time in white and rose gold. The perfect fake Patek Philippe Grandmaster Chime features no less than 20 complications, five of which are acoustic with three gongs and five striking modes. Naturally, you need some real estate to house and display all of that, so we get a reversible 47.7mm case. What is new here is the two-tone execution in white and rose gold. The metals pair beautifully with the opaline brown dials. Price on request.

Next, we have another luxury fake Patek Philippe Grandmaster Chime in the 6300/403G. This white gold version is set with 118 baguette-cut emeralds (7.87 carats) and 291 baguette-cut diamonds (20.54 carats). The “invisible” setting technique makes for a very smooth appearance. Both versions are powered by 1:1 replica Patek Philippes caliber 300 GS AL 36-750 QIS FUS IRM. Price on request.

Other additions to the Grand Complications collection
Next up is ref. 5316/50P-001, another AAA quality replica Patek Philippe Grand Complication, this time in platinum. This new model combines a minute repeater, tourbillon, perpetual calendar, and retrograde date. The 40.2mm case houses the caliber R TO 27 PS QR. You get a view of all of the complexity through a blue metalized dégradé sapphire dial. Price on request.

Another new addition is high quality fake Patek Philippe ref. 5178G-012, a self-winding minute repeater in a 40mm × 10.53mm white gold case. The star of the show here is the dial. This white gold backdrop features an intricate hand-guilloché pattern finished with transparent blue Grand Feu enamel. The Swiss movement copy Patek Philippe 5178G-012 is powered by the caliber R 27 PS and comes with both a blue and an orange alligator strap.

Lastly, we have a new white gold version of the 40.2mm top super clone Patek Philippe World Time Minute Repeater 5531 in this 5531G-001. As if a minute repeater and world-time complication (caliber R 27 HU) aren’t impressive enough, the dial is an absolute masterpiece in its own right. This is a cloisonné Grand Feu enamel depiction of a Belle Époque-era steamship on Lake Geneva. Once again, price on request.
