The REP Been off the forums and the Internet in general for a few months since I've moved to my new house (too many things to do). Yet i had to do a kind of a review on the latest watch i've bought from Paso, since there is some interest on this one. Since 1st day on replica forums I've been wondering about the maria guy and is watches (LOL). I saw some reviews and after some months here it has become easier to get them, now you can call them MBW/MBK since Maria has nothing to do with it. Since Rolex is not really my thing and this has something that all Audemars didn't seem to have (COLOR), i had to buy it. Besides i have the Cousteau 2006 (Blue) and didn't have the 2007 (orange) as for the UPO also got the black one so orange seemed to be missing in my collection. The Watch AP Royal Oak Offshore VOLCANO Model: 26170 Case Metal: Stainless Steel Surface Finish: Classic Case Size: 44mm Calibre: 3126/3840 First ROO to use AP's Brand New 3126 In-House Movement Status: Limited Production of 300 pcs Movement The old 7750 21000, my 1st one, i didn't want to spend all my money in the eta because i can get it cheaper and still Waiting/Hoping for a Asian 7750 with secs@12, so for the moment the old 7750 will stay. It works nice (at least for the moment), so no real reason to spend money for now. Rep Vs Original The case Very Good, the contrast between the brushed and polished is great and it does make a difference in person, not so much in the pics when you compare this with original (i dont have one in my hand to do so) it seems that only in the back the rep is fatter (probably due to the fact that the 7750 is bigger that the original 3126). Yet the position of the crono pushers does not seem that off. Polished VS brushed Back Dial . Good and Bad. The good is the finish of the dial and the depth is very nice, yet the white numbers in the bezel are off. Seems like they did it just to get something very wrong. Other things are wrong but acceptable like the crono sub dial spacing due to the different movement and of course the date numbers are off, and the missing Swiss Made, but is better not to have it than to have China Made, nothing that i cant live with. MBW/MBK Vs Ultimate/1:1/Best/blablabla/Expensive Reps! I have to say that the quality of this watch compared to my reps is top notch i can only compare it to my HBB and the IWC Cousteau, Like i said before the contrast between the brushed and polished steel shows how good the finish of this watch is. In the steel bracelet the end of the links in polish steel is great. Conclusion: Happy with my new watch it does make a difference to all due the orange look. It makes people look at it (its big) A nice rep, it would be great if it had a 7750 with seconds @12 and the white bezel numbers turned to black. The quality of the case and finish is there and even the rubber crono pushers and crown seems good quality. The price was 388,00€ that at current exchange rate is something like 532$. The Dealer: I tried Paso for the 1st time, communication was good, some delays in the delivery but he kept me posted, so no real harm. So all in all was a good experience. Hope i help someone in the decision as some reviews did to me. Sorry for the bad pics and tks for reading Best Regards JJrodr

Here is a watch that i don't see much,probably because of the sec hand @ 6 and all the problems that can come due to that. The titanium look was great so i pulled the trigger with Precious Time and bought it. Here are some pics of the watch the dial Great watch seems pretty accurate here is a pic of the real one Regards

if that thing had a engine to vibrate i could finally convince my girlfriend to enjoy watches

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0411061/ Great movie by the way Al Pacino on 88 minutes with a tag William Forsythe in the same movie also with a tag Tag must had paid someone to appear so much Regards

Blue one from PT also on leather on steel Regards

As many say a pic is better than words. So my choice was, i did the bezel alignment with a simple let it stay in the sun 10 minutes then i moved it. a little strength does the job plain simple. Regards

looking @ the original photo and my crappy photo of "same" watch i don't see many differences in color, seems like light makes the difference

My bank offers a service called "mbnet"@Portugal that creates a virtual credit card. You simply put the limit on that card (the price of the watch). The card has a duration of about 1 month and its a secure way to make this kind of purchases. Regards
