Well, after checking the EMS website every 30 seconds for the last 10 days (still no information!).....she finally arrives with a leather dress (and a spare kinky rubber one too!)
I present to you (drumroll......) THE AUDEMARS PIGUET ROYAL OAK OFFSHORE WEMPE S/S!!!
the pushers are correct.
Only missing a date @ 6.
Actually a very nice rep, and very good how they managed to get the crown and pushers on the correct sides!
Look what came in the post today........
By the way, can i just say that tourbillon1801 went WAY out of his way, and not only sourced me the datewheel, BUT SENT IT TO ME FREE! The guy is a legend and will be the first person i would go to for anything like this again, and i'd advise other members to contact him also with any bits you might need.

Here's some comparison pics

REP:
You can see the size is pretty much the same, going by the fact that both use a 7750 based movt, therefore the subdials will be in the same position on the dial, and then compare the distance from the subdials to the case edge.
The finish may be lacking a bit, but a good bit of brushing and polishing would see to that i think
Well.....
I for one am delighted, another watch i've been longing for has arrived in rep form and it looks pretty darn good!!!
Sunken date wheel aside, i cant see ant reason not to wear it into an AD should i need to!
What is your opinion guys?
