Guys, is a rep uPO crystal with Chief's A/R a better bet than the gen crystal? I'm asking because I've seen two side by side and Chief's looks better. Any opinions are most welcome!

Simply Beautiful R, this level of workmanship is truly the grail.

That would be you Sir! I will contact the collector I bought it from and see if he wishes to have me return it to him first, if not then I'll send you an email and try to book a slot in the future, thank you EVERYONE for your input. I must say it was refreshing having Chris (ETMZ) commenting, I do like that extra mile he always gives.

The chrono won't run at all now Freddy, Time for a service?

The movement looks beautiful John, can't wait to see the finished piece. How's the reluming coming along?

My Slevin has developed a fault, I have searched everywhere and can't seem to find any info on this particular problem. The chrono had been running for a few hours without me knowing, I must have hit it against something. Now the chrono doesn't seem to be working, the seconds run at nine until the chrono is engaged then it stops, the chrono hand at twelve goes back to 55 on the dial then seems to stutter for a few seconds then stops completely. Also the chrono will not reset to the proper start position either. Guys ANY help is most sincerely appreciated.

And advertising reps on their site, how ironic!

It may be time for the tinfoil hat my friend!

Interesting read about placing RFID's in watch crystals as an anti counterfeit measure. My link I just noticed they have an advert for reps on their page

I have no idea Ken, someone has offered it for sale, this is the only pic I have at the moment. I have no idea if it's real or not but I certainly haven't seen one before.

Has anyone ever seen an IWC model like this before? Thanks for any input guys

A great read O/S, very much appreciated

Bloody nice one John, movement really makes it too!

Friendly bump for this post, I really wish I could help you mate. Perhaps a member with old parts laying around could sort you out? Good luck anyway and especially considering it's value to you.

Thanks for the links Col, both bookmarked.

It's killing me having to wait Pugs! Was there ever a quartz rep sold of this Andy?

+1 Col, welcome Stan!

I want this watch so much, if you ever decide to sell please keep me in mind, thank you!

ARRRRHHHH!

Happy birthday R, you are a true gentle man.

Hi and welcome! Take your time, read all you can and learn, and get to know the search function, it makes it so much easier to enjoy this little hobby.

thanks for the reply guys, do you think it looks like a rep? I ask only because the Omega symbol looks older than anything I can see online for Aqua Terra's, it's being sold as quartz and it has co-axial on the dial and the bracelet also looks different to me but I'm no expert, any help greatly appreciated.

Much obliged Dems!

Exactly as title suggests, where the hell is everyone?
