Which watches in your collection are true 'keepers'?
gran replied to ubiquitous's topic in General Discussion
It is a question of time....and if they get wrist time Dial colour is listed...Black and Silver seem to be my favorites all watches that I consider keepers have SS or Whitegold case VC Chronographe (Silver) CHOPARD GTXXL Chronograph (Black) RWG WATCH (Black) actually have 2 different versions of this one FM LONG ISLAND Crazy Hour (SilveryWhite) 4th Gen 42mm PO (Black) Mod7750 PO Chrono 45mm (Black) yes even with the deep date +7. IWC JONES (White SS, Blued Hands) +8. AP JA (White) I most probably will keep all of these above I also have other watches including yellow and red gold ones that I probably will not sell.. ..and I have some genuines too .....who knows I must be Crazy to have this many watches -
...seems he felt that he had to play with a handicap.....It was pretty usefull thread

Super replica now you can test if it can truly withstand strong magnetic fields (Note:This model is so named because it can withstand a magnetic flux density of 1,000 gauss) All the best Gunnar

You ROLEX lovers do look classy

Excellent list But lets not forget that this is in best case scenario...the watch might still have a faulty movement or be badly assembelled We should have a least accurate replica list as well with -, --, ---, ----, ------ and so on as well...it would have to be limited somehow so as not to bee way too long

...Now you really need to put a hornback strap on that one.....biggest there is

Best VC Jumping 31 day Retrograde ever on my wrist today for sa1e so better get som wrist time with it while I can...all functional as on genuine and it even keeps time accurately
-
So what to do with the deep date? Unfortunately Francisco fix for deep date is impossible on this watch Thinking about it I see two possible, but not great, solutions 1. Would it be possible to put in a cyclops in said place.....but then I guess one would need a datewheel with smaller Date numerals on it 2. or worse make a faux date by placing in just one date (glue in place so not so deep) in this position as the date function on this modified Chrono is not really usefull anyways? Any other thinkable "solutions"? All the very best Gunnar

my wrisr ia 7.4 (189mm) so prefer 40 to 45mm but even 38mm is ok depending on the watch...but larger watches is the thing now

youre getting tortured here Tolis it is certainly a good enough looking replica whatever it is

Review of the Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean Chrono
gran replied to chubbchubb's topic in The Omega Area
Yes indeed rep history is slipping out our fingers -
Yes you are correct! Good that you have not seen this "glass" in 7750s I would have been even more delighted if you (and other movement experts) would post even more on these issues for RWG. As when a new potentially important movement such as this new A7750 "Chinese a07.211" is introduced..we and the dealers need input and detailed knowledge... but I perfectly understand that this steals precious time from you (and others). You guys see it all regarding the movements!!! while the rest of us have a much more limited set of items, resources and experiences to draw upon. and Yes! It would indeed be worse Escape, second and possibly also third, and great wheels placed in the gear train toward the mainspring barrel do have metal bearings and not jewelled bearings....I can not beleive this is a good thing in these postions Regards Gunnar NB! I am also adding an image from a dealersite where the jewelled bearings in two of the most easily spotted positions, such as chronolever and escape, appear to be present at these positions...so maybe not all of these new 37mm movements are identical in how they are put together?...if so it is good
-
I do accept that you are the true expert on this The Zigmeister and I am just doing my best to examine this from my own experiences I accept that servicing the movement is the key to long life I accept that metal bearings have their role and may work well What is worries me is the lack of decription of the movements I do not expect or want a movement lacking the jewels, especially not in the positions pointed out... According to your comments it was silly of me to try to change the movement in this case (in germany) as the movement was fine as it was and only needed service That aside.....you are now saying that coloured glass or a soft material is being used as well just to make things more convoluted. Certainly we do not want coloured glass or a soft material..it would certainly be even worse if that was used obviously what we want are true quality jewelled bearings (jewelled bearings = synthetic ruby or sapphire)

There is free speech and jeff can write what he likes besides that new movement looks a lot better and i would prefer his cartel rotor just beacuse it is more beautiful to look at..it is a step forward....but then thats just me

Super review Frogmann and Francisco I got this replica as well and its pretty However I think we must say that the deep date is way to deep...the only truly down side on this replica I have also noticed that the power supply (= time it will run when not on your wrist) is less than 24 hours but maybe that is just mine, and that it needs to be serviced All the best Gunnar

I agree that it is probably not a good thing and certainly I do not like it Maybe it is cheaper to make? If so we are getting screwed on price It is certainly not the most honest thing of the dealers not to describe this movement properly....they should give RWG the information we need to make informed purchases The experts have said very little about this larger diameter movement so far but: Francisco apparently knew about these metal bearings as well but has said nothing about the quality of this movement so far....Domi gave no indicatons that it is a quality movement and changed the movement for me recently...while The Zigmeister being an horological expert also on ancient clockwork, clearly states that the metal is no problem as long as these movemenst are serviced regularly...but truth is the details about the quality and durability of this movement is still very much in question All the best Gunnar
