you couldnt do that date placement with a 7750? I havent seen a rep so far that has the date so close to the rehaut

for $100 I dont you will find success on the gen market, even second hand these go for

just to make it clear...the entire gen bezel assembly WILL fit onto the smp chrono people always mix this fact up with the upo..which cannot take the gen bezel assembly

new movements are approx 120 usd and can be sourced from any dealer

IWC Portuguese Chrono

I had them lumed by The Zigmeister

No, i have seen one member who had five posts say that he fitted the entire bezel assembly, but apart from that the general consensus is that the entire assembly will not fit, since the rep bezel assembly clicks and feels just like the gen putting the gen insert only in, is a very good choice. (by the way, i own a fully modded UPO... with Gen Dial ( a must), Gen insert (a must also), Gen Rubber strap. everything else rep)

first of all, with the money you will be putting into this watch, you will find yourself not too far away from a used gen. one option is to buy this one and sell the one you got from trusty, saves you a lot of time and hassle, you cannot find a gen insert one its own, you have to buy the whole assembly, take out the insert and sand it down (its quite a bit thicker than the rep) some people say the you need a gen date disk, but the eta font on your swiss (if indeed a swiss was sent to you....you might want to check) will be fine finally double AR on this one is a must

PM sent lani

I was planning to renew my membership this week anyway, I've been waiting for this sale for a while bring it on lani

he cant afford to rent a tux? worst excuse ever. ditch him, not much of a friend if he cant make the effort financially and otherwise to make an important day for you go smoothly

gen insert is quite thick, will need to be sanded down.

yes. a gen insert can be fitted

have a chat with narikaa, AFAIK he is in thailand at the moment, so he should be able to sort you out

just one I've seen had a weak crown which came off....i'd say generally good quality...but some people have reported mechanical problems with their skylands...not too many have blacksteels yet so hard to say poor lume dots seem to be a problem

gotta disagree with you on the 42mm. it wears very comfortable on me...same as the seamaster chrono..both are perfect sizes for me

I'm with you on the PO can be a bit uncomfortable...the 45mm not the 42mm for me the most comfortable is my IWC 3707 gst titanium

Looks like it, same pictorials posted there as the ones here

+1..apologies ken...my post was written quickly so as to get the OP to rescind the PP dispute ASAP

a small heads up to those of you who dont frequent repgeek. little hero has posted a new version of the 111h, updated movement etc example of said movement: price tag of 1000 USD will cause many to take a deep breath...too rich for my blood but may be of interest to members here Link to Post on Repgeek

i remember when that happened...what an idiot. ... he sawed the thing in half iirc

XXXXXXXX have a look inside then post back here with what you find inside edit to add..do not think of filing a pp dispute until you have looked inside the toy and/or communicated with king...she is a reliable seller

+1 we see the QC in our watches....so why would you put a device with untested radiation into your pocket......either save up and buy the gen or go with another phone....rep phones are an unknown and I for one am not willing to take the chance

Bump for all those still without their watches hopefully in the new year we will see more items returned .... and some members in or close to poland can pay him a visit and see what the hell is going on we shouldnt let this issue die.....on a board this big with a large EU membership some member HAS to live close (relatively) to him

+1 you paid way too much......i cant believe for the money you spent that you could not have found an 8gb iphone for circa 300 euros on ebay.....didnt slay offer you his for +-300?
