thanx- great review. the $188 i paid for my asian ihs is a super deal!
the gen @ 7k is crazy. i bought the gen TT 1 1/2 yrs ago for $7500!!
-
the dealers listed here are considered " trusted". that generally means you will get a good rep
at a fair price. of course that doesn't guarentee everything will always be trouble free. in fact reps often come with
problems. the better dealers will help you sort them out. everybody has different opinions too, one's favorite may be the next guys
worst. personally, i like to deal with Josh @ perfect clones. i have also bought from many of the others.
that being said- before i got here, i had bought from many of the 'scam sites'. i got some very nice reps too- but alot more $$.
i also got totally ripped off once buy a scammer who took the $$ and never sent the watch
good luck & welcome, you can also search for anything using the 'search' button

luckily i live near one of the largest watch stores there is (tourneau) they have like 5 floors of watches- everything
you could want. its great to check the quality of the reps and to see which one you'd like to buy. i have several gens
too - some of them bought or traded there.

wow- i love the lume on that dial. great pix & watch
congrats!

i can definitely sympathize. i have a job and earn a decent living. yet i have accummulated
over 50 watches both gen & reps! i have thought to stop buying because i'm getting abit fed up with the QC issues lately.
yet i keep going- also i have all 3 boards open on my computer, checking posts, etc.
we may be candidates for an INTERVENTION

wow- that's alot of Q & A's. in short you can't go wrong with BK. the WM9 he sells is expensive,
you can get a Noobmariner from many dealers for $100-200 on the average. it depends on the mov't.
the Asians 21J is cheaper and quite reliable. to get Swiss is about $80-100 more. nowadays its hard to find the real Swiss 25 J
mov'ts. most of the time you'll end up with a 25J Asian Clone version, even if they advertise Swiss.
good luck, like most Noobs (not Noob factory BTW) you'll come for the rolex and soon start buying other brands like Panerai or
Breitling.

talk about those little things- already the bracelet came apart. lost a screw holding in the name plate!
that's why i've really been bitching about the qc issues lately
-
yes- visually the watch is very accurate when you see the pix of the gen.
that's definitely a Noob thing. the small details are alittle off- the main flaw
IMO. again i think we have come a long way to have reps of these complicated watches so
accurate out of the box.

i think king is also selling it .
josh seems to provide alot of the gens for these '1:1' reps. it must get very expensive. i hope they put them
back together after they dissect them!
-
good question- i'm not sure why i don't feel its a 'superrep'. i guess little things like
the clasp, bezel construction, etc. i'm not complaining either- i think it looks very nice.
the dial is very good- its from the noob factory it turns out.

Thats interesting...maybe once I get tools, Ill try to put another one back on. It wasnt glued down properly, so it was making a nice 'crunching' sound when you turned the crown in the dw position.
its a pretty big job. you gotta take of the dial & hands. i wouldn't do it unless i had some
experience.
-
i think most rollie reps have another DW on top of the original.
i noticed that too, and thought it was weird but i think that's how it supposed to be
to get them centered.
-
wow- jeff you're a certified geek. nice pix too!
where did you get that baby?
-
wow- i need gold glasses after reading all this. i have several TT rollies including some really nice old TW Best
and a BK TT sub. i know they're not solid gold for $400 or whatever.
my issue lately with WM9 (and i have a V1 version sub from PT)is about the mov't! the new YM is alot of $$- i'd like to know if the
the mov't is copy or real eta. i can buy a real Hamilton chrono with Valjoux 7750 for less than the YM. i would at least expect a real'swiss eta'
-

i have already ordered the white/black version. it seems less busy than the others. i hear the non-chrono
version like robbie's will be out next year!
My two beautys...
