Excellent information, thanks!!

Wow. I agree that it is difficult to notice the difference until you have a Gen side by side. Althought the Rep looks amazing, we now see a few flaws, two of them major for me: the date number are very different and the AP logo could use a lot of redesign. In my opinion the logo on any Rep should be "near" perfect, because this is the first thing any person looks at when admiring a watch (gen or Rep). What do you think?
The Silver theme is one of my favorites too.
Congrats.

Amazing, for the price it is very worth it. Congrats.
BTW: how do you paste the photos without them being thumbnails?? I can't do it!
Thanx for sharing.

This is the second watch I ordered from Josh at 398 USD.
In my opinion it is very well made.
The RG paint seem to hold up to promised quality.
Colors look OK.
The strap is a bit short, but strong. the shortness makes the strap come off the holders all the time, it's a PITA.
The two strap holders are weak contributing to the looseness of the strap.
The buckles is perfect, never comes off.
The watch has grown on me, I like the weight and feel, but most importantly the look.
Some pics.

I just ordered this pretty baby for myself. With King of course.
Congrats!

I recently bought a Graham CO Commander from Josh. I can tell you that the lever is cheap because it waggles. You can check out my recent review of the watch. I wouln't buy a Graham from Josh again.

Classic. Sporty. Love it.
Congrats.

Nice!

I agree with Mickey Padge...going high end for the first one is a good one to be shocked into how much fun lays ahead for the hobby.
Congrats...and great first post. Thanks for spending the time to post and share.
BTW...do you find the lever gets in the way or digs into your wrist at all??
Dear Toad,
The lever does not interfere with your hand movement at all if you wear it on your left wrist. On the other hand...hmmm...yes, if you wear it on the right hand then it does dig on the wrist. I wear it on my left wrist.

Very nice first post, thanks for the pictures! Who was the dealer, how much was it?
You have purchased a good first rep right there, the Grahams are considered to be very well constructed replicas!
As for the lever wobble, I believe there is a mod/fix for that posted somewhere
Thanks Mickey. I tried the fix without luck, I'll just live with it.

The CF bezel looks pretty good. A good friend of mine that saw the watch, immediatly notice the CF. Now this friend knows a lot about GEN watches so I take it he didn't notice it was a REP (he didn't inspect it at close eye, he just saw it on my wrist).
-
The dealer was Josh. It cost 358USD.
I don't know what CF means, I'm sorry. Remember I'm new, hahaha.

This is my first review, my first post and first Rep acquisition, so please guys, bare with me.
I decided to post because I have learned so much from this forum I thought I should give back a little.
I don't know much about watches, all I know is that I like them!
This review is for a GRAHAM Chronofighter Oversize Commander.
The watch is very nicely made with a few flaws, althougth I cannot compare VS the original because I've never seen it, I believe the quality is not perfect. There are two things that bother me:
1.- The letter engravement on the rubber strap could be better, it is not as deep as some other reps I',ve seen.
2.- The chrono trigger waggles, it even vibrates when I'm driving becoming a bit annoying.
Here are a few pics.
Sorry for the pictures quality it's totally my fault.
Thanks for watching.
