I just hope they're not Frankens LOL
Wow Sick vintage rollies
-
love the black smp chrono!
-
wow great project!
Next you will be up to the gen case perhaps?
Where have you purchased this gen bezel assembly and how much?
is there any available for the sub-c too? (complete ceramic bezel assembly)
-
only the hands and the bezel insert are quite off, the rest is like 1:.99 replicated
-
wow only now that I have stumbled upon this sticky because I know there is know sub-c yet which is close to perfection as I happened to own one from before,
I do hope rep watch makers can make a 1:1 rep that is the same as that of the TC sub where insert is the last thing to be perfected!:
Wear in good health!
-
^^
ditto on that
-
do you have the link mate?
this is 20mm lug size?
great!
-
I will buy the gen after I will get tired of a rep version, or when you have the enough money (financially stable and no worries for the moment, not to mention you have saved up for a fave gen watch) and not purchasing it thru credit cards to get killer discounts and be guilt free from you family..
-
Wow wear in good health bro
is it me or the hour markers in the dial look greenish?
can't decide between black or blue, looking to buy this baby this month
-
damn $198 for the clasp and $230 for the rubber strap? quite an expensive accesory
but very worth it..
-
woho I haven't noticed this thread since the renovation of the site, damn!
this project is off the house!
last thing you need is a GEN case $960+Gen Bracelet $590!
wow you have updates please?
looking to do this mods too!
where have you purchased your gen ETA valjoux 7750? is the baseplate of the movement decorated? 25 jewels?
love to do this, funds just not enough....grrrrr
-
wow very nice!
wear in good health mate!
I'm about to have mine next week!
could not decide on black or blue..
Black is really near to the Gen?
Blue is really biting me but can't afford the mods to make a super ultimate rep!
-
Damn this is a very hard question to answer as I am about to buy this super rep next week from mary@watchinternational..
I have looked over on ofrei's and damn $590 for the bracelet, $960 for the complete case (Bezel, insert, crowns, crystal, gasket, caeback all) so to sum up it will be around $1800, will definitely burn my wallet.. I will really want to have these mods myself too but to me maybe just these parts an I'll be happy;
1. Bezel insert
2. Dial
3. Hands
4. proper decorated 25 jewel ETA Valjoux 7750
Otherwise, I would buy the black one, but the itch is really for the blue bond
but the blue of the insert I simply could not stomach..
Good luck mate!
Please post more pics of your watch so we could see that beatiful timepiece!
-
nice watch! wear in good health!
where are you located? which strap did you get this with?
damn the only panerai model I want
-
I would love to get some gen parts for my 2008 smp chrono rep. Namely a bezel and some new hands. The rep was like £250 delivered, a bezel would be £150 and hands maybe £20 (?). £420+ for a rep is hard to justify.
Mate It will be justified if you could fit an ETA Valjoux 7750 to this Rep, I tell you
-
cough cough the cough Lugs! cough =)
-
it looks to me as if it is japanese though
-
cough oh cough ughh THE LUGS cough uhhh hmmmmm
-
hardly coudn't tell man
-
mine is coming this week or the next!
-
very nice man! wear in good health!
and do the MODS if necessary!
-
don't worry I checked PC site, this has the correct O-M-E-G-A lettering,
not the O_M_E_G_A, hence updated and slighty cost more than the other one..
I guess Tony @ asian 7750 still has the old version, IMO
still havent bought this till now.grrrrrr
-
the LUGS alone in the blue sub defines it as a REP
-
congrats on the new sub man!
For me, really the tell-all factor is the LUGS and pearl,
dammnit what does it take to rep it perfectly? 3d printing??LOL
the lume I suppose is blueish
Nice comparison..just bump at this thread today.
