Whenever I read this "how many watches"..."how many $" I get a funny feeling in my stomach. I just feel that this is asking for trouble. We all do remember that this hobby of ours isn't neccesarily legal. And while I am sure that the gen manufacturers are well aware of the size of the (ever growing) rep pie, I wouldn't put it right in their face..
just my 2c
Nice designs.... and I agree with Andy - they sure beat the hell out of a Clownmaster.
The Pepsi Ceramic GMT has been discussed here before and a lot of people (including me) said that they liked it a lot.
Those are spectacular pictures and a definite bookmark. The way he works with light is both inspirational and amazing. You need good equipment though....
The HBB never grew on me.... a phenomenon that's reinforced with every new model they throw on the market. How many color variations of the same design can you sell? I find that pretty boring.
Please excuse my ignorance as I have no idea who the guy is but since he's on starpulse, with a picture showing off his watch, he's probably some "famous" guy. Why don't you google him. Chances are, he has a deal with the manufacturer and there is something about it on the net.
There is a 6536 gilt dial 50ties "James Bond" Submariner currently being sold on German bay...

The pictures are many, big size and good quality. Nice reference pix.
The seller is a well known German Watchdealer for high-end vintage watches. Funny enough he's selling a "GUILD" dial...

it is indeed a lot more than just the average aberation of a few seconds per day.
If a once COSC certified watch (and most modern Rolex are) is poperly serviced and adjusted by a trained professional, it should still meet the requirements. High quality workmanship gets your watch there and proper periodic servicing keeps it there.
To me a Super-Rep is one that delivers an out-of-the box very close replication of the real deal, while at the same time providing good quality as a watch. I would not include Frankens in this - to me, they are in a league of their own. Some of my watches in that category...
Coming from you who has some of the nicest PAMs I've seen over the years...Thank you...
... no, this is a case which I bought from Tourby maybe two years ago and which had various incarnations since then. I suspect that it's original DSN, because it has a spring loaded crown and a corresponding tube that is different from all my other cases. Dial and hands are DSN as well.
