"But on the other hand the gen Rolex prices have skyrocketed too. 1675 was a 4000-5000$ watch 10 years ago. Now it's a $14000 watch." A 1675 was $450 in 1975 (!!). Otoh $450 was a lot of $$ back then. Here is a partial price list from 1973: Image from: https://www.bing.com/images/blob?bcid=Tm-zrNoCG90CEA Prices 1957 to 2020: Rolex Price Evolution (minus4plus6.com)

Hello everyone! I’ve missed you guys. I’m still not ready to accept orders just yet but I have made some builds I’ll be posting for sale soon on my favorite forum. All the best to you all!

here's a start. each seller have their goods and bads. unfortunately you will have to spend some time to read about them. the worse thing in the rep world is consistency. hence there's a lot of information, some current, some outdated you will need to sift through. ndt ming quy phong ruby's (not sure if they are viet sourced. i vaguely remember they are)

Still love Breitling, not a fan of what they’ve done recently. I really stopped participating in reps about six years ago, then switched to an Apple Watch two years ago. It wasn’t until this past Christmas that I got my first rep in many years, a Ti Hublot Diver 4000. So my collection is pretty much the same as when we last spoke lol.

Yeah I don't understand the pricing, either. I don't want to pay such crazy prices for knockoffs myself, either. I got the gens I always wanted. But of course when the quality got so much better I'm sure the production costs increased too. Something like the TC Submariner and the Noob Daytona (or whatever it was called) were light years better than the stuff that we had back in the day. Remember "TW Best Sub"? It was awful and full of flaws by today's standards but we still were happy with it and we considered it to be a "good rep". Or the MBW Red Sub. The dial and case were pure crap to be honest... but moddable, yes. But on the other hand the gen Rolex prices have skyrocketed too. 1675 was a 4000-5000$ watch 10 years ago. Now it's a $14000 watch. I don't want to pay such prices for the gens, either. I could pay maybe €700 for a great franken 1675/16750 but my limit is there. $600 for a bulk Omega rep makes no sense. You can buy vintage gen Omegas for less. Cheers.
