Still have the issue editing just now

Made correction to the photo. The rep is the one on the left and the Gen is on the right.

The 312 gets lots more wrist time than the DSSD. The DSSD is a fine watch in it's own, I have the Sea-Dweller DEEPSEA 116600 1:1 A3135 Best Edition (which is really a nickel plated A-2836 clone) No issues noted with it so far. But its not a chrono, so you wouldn't expect to have the issues that the 7750's run into. Its actually a very fine watch and seems to be fairly close to the gen in terms of fit and finish, however there are flaws inherent with all the Rolex's. I have really been thinking about selling that one and moving up to BK DSSD for $420. That's supposed to be the Holy Grail of rep DSSD's available. But overall, I like the PAM 312 the best of my current line of watches......... so far. I just got a AP ROO Montauk Highway this past Saturday and I must admit it's totally awesome. I feel it going to win out as the #1 go guy on the wrist for the foreseeable future. It's very well made and is running rock solid so far. Not quite a Super Rep, but awfully well made considering the factories didn't have a gen watch to tear down. The biggest flaws are the hard to duplicate colors of the bezel and subdials are a little off compared to the gen. But they only had internet photos to compare. Gen on left, rep on the right Actually the only rep that I have that has given me any issues is a Daytona sec@6 A7750. But I knew going into the purchase it was a crap shoot on those. I am ready to ship it off to Speedy Gonzales for a full service and repair, so hopefully he will get it back up and running smoothly in no time.

I guess there are some legit concerns about the A7750's......... however, I have the 312L and the 288K and they both run like champs so far with no issues what so ever. Got them both from Angus at PureTime Watch. Been running strong with a decent power reserve for close to 10 months so far with zero problems. I do have my watches on a winder when not being used, so I would like to think that helps some with keeping the watches in smooth running order. I also follow all the usual recommendations for safely operating the 7750's.

I have the 312L and it's my favorite watch so far. Sent from GreenHornet's iPhone 4 using Tapatalk

Holy mother! I would be downright livid with loosing 2 watches worth over $1500.

I would be interested in picking up a pair of the new pushers if sold separately and have a local Mod perform the install in conjunction with the A7750 movement service.

My vote goes for the IWC

Very stunning timepiece my friend. I love the classic simplicity of the 2A.

Yeah, the AP movement is a work of art. Best to get a closed case back. IMHO Sent from GreenHornet's iPad 2 using TapaTalk.....

What's the issue with the bezel? Just trying to learn how to be more dilligent spotting flaws. Thanks

One small step forward for Rep lovers everywhere.

Just picked up the Montauk Highway from Toro! There are some detailed threads on this already, so I won't go into a full on review. Suffice to say that I am very pleased with Toro's quick service.... from day of order to my doorstep in 4 days, as well as the unique beauty and quality of the piece. The only downside is the cheap rep hornback strap. But this is easily fixed with a high quality 100% Hornback strap on order from HKTan. Now on to the photos: And here's the Gen for a quick comparison:

Very nice purchase. The genuine hornback straps really liven up those AP ROO's Sent from GreenHornet's iPad 2 using TapaTalk.....

Hard to say, the BCE was always a very good rep, possibly a super rep. Sent from GreenHornet's iPad 2 using TapaTalk.....

I'd say forget the tourbillions. Just too over the top for me, and the Gen versions are ultra expensive, many well over $100K. My choice as far as appearance is 8, the IWC. Just have to ensure you get the movement serviced due to the known issues with the sec@6. Sent from GreenHornet's iPad 2 using TapaTalk.....

Nice collection, but I really love the JLC you have. What a beauty! Sent from GreenHornet's iPad 2 using TapaTalk.....

Where does the Gens have the chrono second hand? Sent from GreenHornet's iPad 2 using TapaTalk.....

From what I have read on several replica forums is to pretty much stay clear of rep shoes. The quality is just not there like there is with watches and handbags. Sent from GreenHornet's iPad 2 using TapaTalk.....

I'm almost foaming at the mouth waiting for my Montauk and HKTan strap to show up. All the glamour shots are making me damn impatient. LOL Sent from GreenHornet's iPad 2 using TapaTalk.....

I just want to know when Columbus, OH became the financial Mecca of America where all the big dog CEO's gather. And why is the restaurant so elite it can't be mentioned? Sent from GreenHornet's iPad 2 using TapaTalk.....

I got rid of the deployant and got a Gen gator strap with a tang buckle. Sent from GreenHornet's iPad 2 using TapaTalk.....

I have one with the Asian Eta clone, no noise at all in mine. Sent from GreenHornet's iPad 2 using Tapatalk
