Do your dials come with tachy ring for the portu's?

Yep!

All portu owners definitely need the gen strap'

It is a huge dufference in quality, feel, durability and most importantly

being called out because of it...

Wow...amazing read indeed.

For once i didnt need to squint my eyes to read.....

Very helpful info and great shots!!!!

Kudos mate'

My dear friend,

It seems you have some fears or "cries of help" with regards to sourcing a reputable rep.

To be really honest, until you do make your first purchase from DSN, you will never know.

It would be pointless to scrutinise DSN for his flaws, when practically it IS a few hundred

dollar investment. I guess we have countless more flaws ourselves than his rep's.

And this not knowing will keep you coming here and asking those same questions over and over

again.

-It would be more prudent to understand that at less than 8% of the cost of buying a genuine piece

and realising a mistake.

-DSN pieces are value for money and very inepensive.

-Options are available for you to play around with once you actually have bought a watch from DSN.

-You can always resell on RWG and any rep forum if you feel it is not for you.

But' until you actually take the first-step into making your first purchase here, needleess to say

all of us here are nowhere to begin with.

So after all the posts and replies, the real question here is; "Are you a player or a spectator?"

Cheers

Thank you all friends.

Very, very insightful....i never realised Gerald Genta!! Haha

Abit about the overhaul i did;

When i got the watch, obviously it wasnt in this state.

The plastic cystal was cracked and movement not working.

Then i brought it to an expert and he had these things done;

-Gen sapphire replaced

-Case and bracelet repolished to AP specs

-Crown replaced with a gen AP crown

-Sandblasting of the case back

-Movement overhauled

-All seals and gaskets replaced.

Overhaul cost; 900 euro's

Entire 21 links in place and fit perfect still.

Cheers

Truely Dirty my friends'

One of those 79350's is mine.....hahaha

Yummm!!!

'Laughs non-stop',this is a real good one.

Obviously a newbie and all i can say is ,'Champion"

Hi,

are there any marks, numbers etc on the watch? A number beginning with "N"?

Everything would help me to give an answer to your questions. You can PM me if you don't want to post this here.

Best

Yes,

on the back signed 4420101 and 6-156907

cheers my friend and tks again

Thanks alot friends!!!

The watch measures 36 mm and runs on a old

brass eta 2892 17 jewel movement.

I must say it is identical to the royal oak released

in the 80's.

Qn: Would this acutally qualify as a Genuine Rep?

"laughs"

I think this watch dates to 70's era.I need some help with information on this AP Royal Oak lookalike as i can't

seem to find it anywhere on the web. I bought the watch a year ago from fellow's and son's auction house and had it totally refurbished by

Bonfield in Singapore.

Any insight on this watch would be a great help to a newbie like me.

Enjoy the pics and thank you all for viewing.

I value any and all insight and thank you all once more.

Have a blessed new year everyone!

The finish on the movement is really bad. Likely a china copy of eta. The strap and buckle as well.

Does look like a 400 dollar watch. Cartier movements are very well finished.

I hope this helps, cheers.

Val,

Thank you for the advice.

I apologise if i have come accross rude or disobeyed the rwg rules.

Thank you again,

Sumon
