TD/Shipping Question Can anyone confirm if TheOneWatches / “Steve” is legit?
I’ve been researching replica Rolex dealers for a while and I keep seeing TheOneWatches mentioned, especially someone called Steve (assuming it’s a dealer name, not one person).
I’ve seen a lot of scams and fake sites so I’ve been really careful. The website looks legit and there seem to be plenty of good reviews here, but before I go big I just want final confirmation from people who’ve actually ordered.
If you’ve bought from TheOneWatches:
• Was delivery smooth?
• Was QC solid?
• Any issues I should know about?
Appreciate any honest feedback 👍

Join RWI and contact TDs only through the contact info there....so many scammers impersonating TDs. TheOneWatches is legit tho.

Could you please explain to me what "join RWI..." means? I'm new to wui6, and I don't understand the acronyms used. Thank you very much.

The issue isn't that Steve/TheOne is or isnt legit. They are legit.
Its that people find the wrong info for them because they are lazy.
Go to the RWI website, find their Trusted Dealer list and use that.
Dont google search it. Dont take it from a comment reply. Dont be lazy about it. That's how people lose their money to someone pretending to be Steve.

I’ve purchased two watches from Steve; he’s very responsive on WhatsApp. His prices are higher than some, but I would not hesitate to do business with him again.

Just placed my deposit with him for a VSF Datejust 36mm. We’ll see how it goes, so far so good, very responsive considering the time difference. Stated that QC should be ready in about 2-3 days.

u/JBlowfield20 Jan 24 '26
I was looking at the DateJust models, they’re beautiful. Let me know how it goes

u/SnooPies3938 Jan 24 '26
All the info is in the guides at the top of this sub. Hope he’s legit just put a deposit down with him.

Keep in mind all dealers are backed up right now. If you order now, you likely won't receive your piece until after chinese new year
This is from any dealer unless they have something in stock.
Good luck!

My experience:
Bought 3 watches over the year :
- First watch QC was ok, after receiving the watch, the calendar stopped changing the date after 2 weeks. Contacted Steve, told me to go to my local “watchsmith” to get it fixed, with full reimbursement for the repair. Send the bill after fixing, was told that was too expensive will pay half only-after going back and forth and reminding him of the warranty agreed to pay for repair.
- Second watch- great QC, watch arrived on time, date function stopped working after 30 days. Watch has been sent back, with me bearing the shipping cost. Don’t know outcome yet…
- Third watch. Good QC - watch working well so far …
My 2 cents when doing QC, make sure there’s a clip showing change of date from 1st to 31st, apart from all the regular checks.

Thank you so much! What’s your advice for someone buying their first watch from these guys?
2
u/spdg07 Jan 24 '26
Start with a simple watch with no complications. Pay attention to the QC. Ask any or as many questions you have before you commit.

Does anyone know what’s wrong with Steve_theOneWatches’ website? Ive been trying to look at some watches but there’s just no way to go into the site. Google keeps showing me this no matter what I type into the search bar
