Not playing the game on this one. Gen is relatively affordable, so if it's off, I'm not interested. To be honest, I've been put off reps in general for this very reason. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk 2

Might actually go gen on this one, unless the rep surprises me. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk 2

There are about three dealers I know of in UK. I bought a herb black bay about a month ago whilst in London. Usa is where you will have problems getting one. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk 2

Good work mate! Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2

I'm waiting until they resolve some of the blatant flaws. People may say dine are a bit ODD about the flaws, but buying this rep is almost a week's wage for me in my case. Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2

Has there been a rough release date for the v2 LV anybody know?

The liquid metal logo on the case back does bother me. Another prime example of the factories placing flaws deliberately in order that we end up buying v2 v3 etc. It takes the p1ss if you ask me. They get 99.9 of a watch correct then screw up on something as simple as a pearl in example. I've stopped buying reps with obvious tells these days. Would rather save up towards a gen.

Don't blame you mate. That watch is advertised as having "no happy feet" so if you ordered the item and it comes with happy feet, then it's not as advertised and not a fault. He should replace it without question. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2

I might buy one when they sort the caseback engravings. Other people might not care, but a lot of people on here will. Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2

It's another case of placing flaws in the rep so we buy v2 v3 etc. Very tiring... come on GZ, we aren't fcking stupid. Just make what we want, reap the benefit and move on to the next rep. Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2

Just noticed the 45 version has "liquid metal" on case back. This isn't correct at all.... Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2

Not a fan of the old school (pre ceramic) black sub but the old school Sub LV, i would say TC V1 LV. Clasps on some of these TC reps are a bit crap mind. The latest SubC on Josh's site looked great until i realised the text on the dial (Officially certified) has no bloody gap in it! http://www.1-pc8838.com/rlss00008-116600-submariner-p-13285.html Looks nice apart from that. I really can't understand why they can replicate a watch, doing all the hart parts like case pearl etc, and then miss something so obvious. My only guess is they are there deliberately to make us keep buying new reps. I'm still on the lookout for a good SubC LV rep with the correct sunburst dial, but still nothing decent on the market Happy to be proven wrong, but I doubt I will be..

Maybe I just need mine straightened. The cyclops appears to be in place, but it is quite difficult to make out date underneath due to reflections. Right hand of the datewheel text appears to be in shadow, although the datewheel is definitely centred.

Mines the noob. I'm sure someone had a source for replacement crystals. Not gen but better quaility, similar to clark for the rollies. I wish I could remember who posted it now.... grrr I can imagine a gen crystal would be very expensive inded.

Afternoon all, Been poking around for info on replacment crystals for the 243L. Anybody got any recommendations? I do remember there were some available that were mentioned in a post a few months ago, but can't find the bloody post, lol! Cheers Craig.

Guys, Looking to get my new noob explorer 2 serviced, along with the lume 're done (lume on white versions is terrible). With exception to Domi, who else we got in the EU that could do a decent job? Cheers Craig Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2

Guys, it's there anyone who can source gen crystals for this watch still? I just got myself the new noob version, but not that impressed with the Crystal and the Cyclops in particular. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2

Well, received my watch today and it is total garbage.Lume is a mess, rehaut doesn't line up to 9 as it should and remainder of rehaut engraving doesn't line up with indices as it should. Also Cyclops is crooked and date window isn't centred. This watch cost me a week's wages. Really not happy. It's going back tomorrow. Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2

Well, I asked for extra qc pics following on from my first set of photos from them. They never replied, so I sent a second email to which they relied saying that they had sent extra pics and that I hadn't responded so they had sent the watch already. Not happy at all, and the extra pics show sloppy lume and non centred date window. Regardless whether they have sent it, they will be getting it straight back. Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2

Nice looking combo mate. Not been oh my radar before, but warming to the white SA. Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2

Cheers for info mate. Will wait a few more days for a reply. Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2

I've decided to reject this watch. Had a good look at the pics and not happy with the lume application, nor the print on the dial. Hopefully the next example they offer me will be better. Saying that, I've emailed puretime qc twice in the last 4 days and no response. :/ Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2

Hi all, I received my QC pics of the new explorer 2 I recently ordered from Angus. Thought I'd share them with you, as I know quite a few of you guys are thinking of ordering one. Overall, watch looks good. Not bothered about the incorrect hand stack in the slightest, my only worry is the rehaut engraving and the dial text (chronometer seems to be bolder than test of text, but could just be my eyes?) Anyhow, hope they are helpful or of interest guys.. Cheers, Craig Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2

Hi all, In order to fund par tof my quest towards a gen Rolex YM, I'm looking to sell a number of my reps. One of these is a franken UPO, with the following mods: -Gen Dial -Gen hands -Gen tube and crown The watch is the swiss eta version, which has been serviced a year or so ago by Domi (along with all the above mod work). He also re-ARd the watch but the colour was wrong (its more like orange than blue but actually looks really nice). To this end, I have a Sunny crystal ready to fit, along with two improved Bezel inserts (one black and one orange) which i bought from ebay (member wholesaleoutlet990). Any ideas what I should be looking for to sell all of the above on here as a job lot? Want to make sure its a fair price for both parties
