  1. Is BK a dealer for WM9? Sorry new to Rolex Reps.
  2. Calling all Rolex Yachtmaster experts, interested in potentually making a purchase from Watchmaker9. What am i really getting into? In terms of replication are these watches as good as it gets? I noticed that the cases accept the Gen movement and indeed 'G' has them listed as a movement option,For $2,500.Greatly appreciate all learned opinions on the matter. Stephane's opinion would be great. Denimhead
  3. You can try 'domi66' but he's in Germany. He's done a full service and graphic treatment on my Rubberclad, i also got him to make the watch 100% waterproof, the watch runs like a Trojan. Might want to sit down before he quotes you in Euros! Depends on how long you intend on keeping it.
  4. Thought this may be useful for all EU Ap Ofshore secs@12 owners. Decided to take the plunge and ordered my Rubber Clad from Andrew@Trusty. Rather than wait for it to grind to a halt i contacted Domi66(EU based watch genius) with a view to making the watches movement a bit more reliable. I also wanted to not worry about going into the shower and ending up with a mist filled watch. So he has performed a full service/graphite treatment, full waterproofing, relumed dial and AR on the crystal. First of all i have to say that regardless of its Replica status this is one of the nicest watches i have ever owned. Yes they are expensive replicas but the construction alone puts it in league with many of my so called premium gens, it really is that good. If you have been on the fence about this model then my advise is take the plunge but do get the mechanics of the watch sorted and hopefully it will last as long as you want to wear it. Appologies in advance for my crappy pictures.
  5. Morning Toad Andrew emailed me yesterday confirming that ther is a new 1655 rep on the way(eta based)He has sent his own watch for replication. He was clear that there were going to to be other models first.Couldn't get anymore out of him. Lets see what they come up with. Cheers DH
  6. Is this the talked about perfect clones one? Very interested in getting some info on any future 1655 product. Cheers DH
  7. Hi Frank, I am really after a complete watch with the 1570 movement etc, i know they occasionally come up for sale on here as complete Frankens. Cheers DH
  8. Any thoughts on buying a complete 1655 from Phong at Jewelry and watch, any experiences etc? I have had in the past a DRSD case from NT Trading which my watchmaker spotted a mile away as not being a genuine case, are these cases the same product or is Phongs stuff really that good.All thoughts greatly appreciated.

  9. Bezel is great, had it pressure tested by my watch repair man, totally waterproof.Go for it, you won't regret it.
  10. I couldn't agree more, i guess the whole perception thing i was getting at was, when i arrived into the office this morning wearing the U1, three guy's who are all watch nuts like me, who would never consider buying a rep where all stunned that you could actually buy a replica Sinn. Interestingly enough two of them have both placed orders today, in their opinion for
  11. Some shots as promised. Only my opinion but i think this watch will have a genuine bearing and change peoples perception of the replica watch market long term.
  12. Shots going on Monday, away for the Weekend.
  13. Just recieved from Andrew@Trusy - Swiss eta version of the newly released Sinn U1, having owned a Gen U2 in the past i can honestly say this is one of the best reps i have ever seen.Waterproof to a respectable depth, great AR and unbelievable contruction and finish for
  14. Just recieved two seperate deliveries from Andrew at Trusty, both EMS and both got here in less than a week.When they get here in the UK, Parcelforce deliver on their behalf. Never had any issues over the last 5 years.
  15. Send me a reminder in the morning, i have got it on my Computer at work. mbailey@pentland.com Cheers Mark
  16. I stand corrected, having just talked to Phong, he has nothing to do with NDTrading. I am sending my 1665 project to him for 'aging' next week, wheni get it back i will take some shots.Interested to see if he can really make the watch look 30 years old.
  17. Phong from Jewelryandwatch.com, i think he is also the owner of NDTradingcorp.com. I have previously bought a 1665 case, dial and genuine Rolex 1570 movement from him. About as good as it gets regarding replacement parts, but expensive. Iam going to post some pictures of my watch in the next few weeks.
  18. Thought these may be of interest to the Vintage Rolex Sport fans out there, Mr Phong is now offering his watches 'aged'. Very nice i think you will agree. Denimhead 1.bmp 2.bmp 3.bmp 4.bmp 5.bmp 6a.bmp
  19. Hello All, Does anyone know if there is going to be a swiss eta version of the recently revised 'ultimate' version Breitling SuperOcean Heritage(only appears to be available with Asian eta copy so far). I have asked the question at Trusty but had no answer as yet. I am after the revised case with the cut out crown area ,waterproofed and improved date font etc. Cash waiting to be spent! Many Thanks Denimhead
