lol, brother, pardon me sometimes. When I miss a date with Ms Morning Coffee, you can ignore 50% of what I say.
Lol I know what you are saying 😂 I hate thread crappers, and wouldn’t have said anything along the lines of what I said if it wasn’t 7 months dead lol

Guys
Good intentions, but kindly do the sale/trade/purchases in the trade section please, thank you.
I Hear what you are saying, but this is a 7 month dormant post and no one had intentions of turning it into a sales thread. I simply said I’d take that “desk clock” off his hands for him... 😬 cheers !

What are you looking for that 3646 setup ?
i don’t have my 1016 anymore, but I’m about to list a 16610 franken. Or if I sell it I’d be interested in taking this off your hands. I really miss my 3646

No wrist time, especially the 3646.
If anyone is interested its a 3 piece case (prototype) a 3 layer anodised dial and a cortebert cal.616 with rlx engravings.
I can consider a trade if anyone has a decent modded vintage Explorer 1016 to let go.
Thanks!

I have a 112 that Marlin built for me. It’s pretty much the best you will get without going with a Gen.
i love the watch but I’ve hardly worn it.

Hey fellas !
just got this Noob 4130 and tossed a Gen dial and stuff into it, loving the watch but I found a bezel in my watch box that was a little bolder font than the Noob 116520 and the placing of dots and numbers were a little better to Gen than the noob, but I have no idea where I got it lol Any ideas ?

This one showed up yesterday and will undergo surgery in the next few days lol

Hey fellas, looking for a friend of mine on Paneristi for a watchsmith in Singapore to service his 7750 based vintage Panerai. the Panerai service centre told him they would change his Tritium dial and hands if it went for service. He wants to keep them so this is the only option.
Cheers and thanks !

Someone needs to crack this maggots head open. this kind of thing boils my blood. What a class act he is!

Just read through this, what a maggot. anyone who takes anything from another person deserves to be beaten with a bag of their own shit. The shit this guy pulled is lower than low. Id spend $6k just to show up and knock on his door if he did this to me.

the cornet on the V6S was great, I compared mine to my gens and its pretty close if not spot on to the eye.. they can do it they are just lazy at times and it also keeps the diehards picking at things to give them an update to sell more watches lol well that's my 2cents. They have in the past and im sure they will in the future make a good one but on the wrong bracelet lol its actually clever when you think about it.

We are not big on bans here, my big shiny ban button has only been used twice. Besides where is the entertainment in that? You think even our Noobiest, Nooby Noob is going to buy after our guys have flayed him alive on every thread?

Are people like this for real ? Do they not know that the rep clan are the worst to sell to lol they will pick every piece of meat from your bones lol
offering a 116520 for about $5grand less than it is elsewhere and on top of that on a rep forum lol
if I were a mod I ban him on just being seriously obvious lol or stupid .. whatever one of the two it is lol 😎

I’m sorry to hear Ken, it’s never and easy thing to deal with losing someone close you to. I won’t try to say things to try to make it easier as there is no easy way to deal with it. Just keep you head up brother ! Take care of you and your family first the rest of us can wait. My thoughts are with you.

Noob V4 is the best out there right now unless you can get a Marlin modded one.
-
The noob or if you can get your hands on a Marlin 127. Or if you have lots of cheddar to spend on one I have a franken :P
-
Open it up, take out the stem and remove the movement/dial and just slightly press the second hand in or if it tips up slightly bend it down close to the minute hand tip. Reassemble it all and bob is your uncle :P

Awesome fellas ! thanks ! yea I know the rep tags are pretty damn good from the last time I had seen them, so that's why I was wondering on the quality of the newer bracelets. I checked with my Tag dealer and they want like $900 for the genuine one and that's a bit insane for that watch, it is a $6500 watch but its still a tag with the same bracelets as the $3k and $4K carreras, so I cant see 1/3 or 1/4 the cost being the bracelet lol
Ill have to check with some of the dealers and get one ordered. Ive not ordered just a bracelet before, I wonder if toro is into that stuff lol
Either way fellas thanks a million it is greatly appreciated !! ill post some photos of the fit and finish when I get it and put it on the watch.

Hey fellas,
I have a Gen Carrera Caliber 36 flyback on a croc strap that it came with, I was wondering what the rep SS bracelets are like in quality ? this one is a 43mm with a 22mm wide lug, what are some of the models with a 22mm lug that would fit this one. They actually had a bracelet available for this but my colleague who I got it from didn't buy it when he picked up two of these a few years back.
thanks in advance for your input !

Rep 904L steel, is it legit? What do buyers think of it?
in The Rolex Area

hmm im sorry but 904L is a an ISO standard and the variation in quality is nearly non existent. it is the composition that makes this a 904 alloy. it is highly resistant to corrosion hence why it was made. I use it in highly acidic environments in oil production. it was designed to be used with very strong acids. The 904 on reps has been tested and does fall into the specs of being called a 904L alloy, but people seem to think that it is a super alloy and it doesn't scratch etc.. its not its actually nearly identical to 316L but has different corrosion properties. People get all bent saying "its brighter" etc and that's horseshit. its not. the whiteness or brightness in the metal has to do with how it is brushed and catches light. my recent noob Daytona is 316 and it looks exactly the same as all of my gen Rolexes.
Id like to know where you got your information on 904L because its very incorrect.
if what they are usisng is actually 904L then like I said it will have the same scratch and dent resistance as 316 but it will be highly corrosion resistant to acids from your skin and just about anything you will throw at it.. 904L on a watch is mearly a marketing thing as 316L is perfect for watch material and like will outlast you.
The reason rolex changed was to solve the pitting issues they had in the caseback around the seal area you seen in a lot of old subs that were worn in salt water and not rinsed off, over time this will pit 316L but a very long time. most of Rolexes reason was because it was exotic, hard to work with and no one else was using it.
