I haven't come across any, I would love to see some though, especially the Fifty Fathoms!

Very nice, congrats on the purchase!

Nice results, I would also be interested in your light tent! I now resort to putting a lamp behind my rather thin curtains, puts a nice light across my desk

Very nice, I've had a soft spot for this Pam since seeing it in the Trasnporter film.

In some situations yes, but not in relation to replica's, common sense should prevail here. If you take a rep into an AD to buy a strap, it will go down like a lead balloon. My advice would be to buy it over the internet, if you want to see it on the watch first, buy a very cheap strap that is of similar colour, or have a look at some pictures on here, I'm sure the combination you are after would have been covered somewhere, hope this is of help.

Call me sceptical, but I smell marketing BS

Nice pictures!

I was so excited when reading that title!! There aren't any as yet, I believe the Big Pilot is still in the pipeline though.

Stunning, a very nice purchase!

Well, I have one more law exam to go before I finish my second year at uni, so to celebrate seeing the light at the end of the tunnel, I took some time out in the sun to take some pictures of my Omega; More of a Breitling fan, she wasn

There is someone in Europe who puts graphite onto the gears which seems to revive the movements. As far as the 7 day power reserve, that's on the 5001 Porto's, the 3714's come with a standard 42 hours power reserve. And you're correct the AR will really transform this rep.....

To be fair, there aren't any accurate replica's of this type of Patek due to the complicated movements they use. One would buy this type of Patek due to the similar design and style rather than being accurate to the gen. It is beautiful NSM, wear it well!

I second the Portuguese, hard to get hold of.....but what a beautiful watch!!!

Its the 7750 with gears to transfer the seconds, it's the same movement they used in the breitling Blackbird and Bentley

I have also a gen SMP (auto) and could not be happier. I cannot agree that the reps feel any better in the hand as the Omega Seamaster is well reknowned for being a robust and quality watch. As for the AR crystal.......the internal coating doesn't make all that much difference....are you sure you weren't duped and sold a rep with AR coating?

There are many variations of this watch, each with their own flaws, it depends on what ones you can live with. My advise is have a read through on the Pam section and decide for yourself which flaws you cna most live with.

Stunning picture!

Could you take some pictures of it, I haven't seen any decent pictures of this one?

I will be the first to admit I am no Rolex expert, however in talking about thick bezel numbers, it is vital to remember that these pictures are much larger than the watch itself (this isn't aimed at anyone, but just a general observation). Therefore the difference in thickness is emphasised by the pictures. I remember seeing pictures of Panerai 111/005's and then ordering my first. The watch proportions look so much different in the flesh than in the pictures. This is a very good replica - I still believe the price is very high though!

Link isn't working, but I will add that there hasn't been any good replica's of this model. If it looks very different from the picture below it isn't real, but if it looks the same then it's genuine.

That is the best SA I have seen! Does it have a gen bezel? All that needs is an AR coating and Lello datewheel and it will be almost spot on to the gen!

I actually thought this was a gen until I got to the bottom of the thread! A simply stunning watch!

When did you send the money? Don't worry about your order though, Puretime is in my opinion the best I have dealt with, you'll get your watch.

Can they not just send you a datewheel and a new strap, it would be much easier than sending the while watch back!
