  1. Ooh that looks real nice too!! Unfortunately, I think the Seagull tourbillon movement will always have that gold ring around it, may throw off the silver look. Having said that, the rose gold color of the watch case in the rep that I'm getting doesn't quite match up to the gold on the tourbillon movement either.
  2. Photos from Connie's site (http://www.kingshowbox.com/goods-6217.html): This is based off of the Hublot Minute Repeater (worth about $250-$300k) Big differences include - dial center shifted up - black bezels and black caseback on the replica, gold on the gen - skeleton details different Obviously the replica is a far cry from the gen watch, but I have to admit, even on it's own, it's such a beautiful watch (and one of the best replica tourbillon skeletons I have ever seen), that I fell in love with it despite the differences and picked it up. Will show photos when I get my hands on it!
  3. Hey everyone, I thought I'd take the opportunity to post my pictures of the one I got recently. My mini review: Love - The overall look and feel of the watch. - The weight feels great - The strap and watch is quite comfortable to wear. - The chrono guards make this AP ROO look different from all the other ones, and there is a nice subtle "click" noise when you close the guards. - dial detail is amazing (other than the flaw I wrote below). - casing is DLC coated titanium, which I heard was better than PVD coating. Case feels solid in any case. Could be better - There is no AR on the crystal. It made photographing this beast extremely problematic as it was hard to take out the reflections without blocking a lot of light. However, I hear that the genuine also has a non-AR crystal, though that still bugs me. In fact it was recommended that this is one of the few AP watches that would greatly benefit from AR. I might have to look into that. Flaws - the only flaw that I know about on this rep is that the datewindow is slightly too far to the right, and therefore the tachymetre scale around the 3 position is pretty much non-existant, a pretty easy tell. Apparently the date window is a common flaw in all AP ROO's from what I hear. Photos: Front view: another front view: Side View: Back view: Another back view: Everyone wants a wrist shot! This is actually VERY hard to take by myself! Especially when trying to eliminate glare off the crystal!! Close up of the dial!! Hope you guys enjoy!!
  4. I want to verify whether the dial markers on the PVD version is accurate to the gen? If I'm not mistaken, the genuine has missing lume dots at 3 and 9, or it's on the other side or something, but the rep has the inner lume dots. Can anyone verify this?
  5. Yes that's correct. The steel bracelet makes it inaccurate, because the genuine comes in the CF strap. At the time I was looking, I only saw the leather strap with red stitching, which in my opinion looked horrible. I know what the genuine looks like, it's actually leather made to look like carbon fiber. I'm not sure what these newer replicas are made of, but I'm assuming it's not leather for that CF strap. It looks, however, a lot closer to the genuine, but I also like the look of the SS bracelet because it gives it a more elegant look. I suppose you could say that it's like a fantasy watch.
  6. Thank you tgchrono2 for the information. I was afraid of that, because that's pretty much all I could find as well.
  7. I got the same thing with a steel bracelet instead. Hold on while I find some pics... how's the STRAP by the way? Always curious about the CF strap!!
  8. Love the Planet Ocean, first time for me seeing the alpha. Thanks for sharing
  9. is that the 7753 movement!? Nice watch man.
  10. Just curious, does anyone know if there is a rep of this watch?? Can't post links or photos since I don't have enough posts here yet lol, sorry guys. Or something similar. I'm looking for either Classico or Flight Deck with an all-black theme (black casing, black dial, black markers, etc). Having trouble finding something like this. Please help! Thanks everyone!
  11. There isn't much Black Magic love here... I just got into the replica world, and recently got my first replica (recommended by a Hublot fan) My Hublot Big Bang Black Magic full ceramic:
