I will let him know tomorrow in the mean time please PM me and I will relay orders to him

Check the dealer section they are both there

Is the el primero running 28.8 or 36.0k bph?

Update: 1/3 have landed

Not true. A 2836-2/24 rotate the opposite of a 3135. A 3035 and eta will have the same hand rotations but not the same date rotation.

Lovely watch looks amazing. Though I feel like every yachtmaster needs one upgrade: gen dial, as I feel like no rep dial comes close. Is Tc still offering these?

You should post a pic

Also looking to buy one if anyone knows the best place to get one or a used one works!

It looks gen to me but ask the seller if it has been refinished and also that "dent" is just the sunburst finish it does not look damaged

I'm guessing there's not much Rolex on that watch

Nanuq you must live in the North Pole! Is Santa a good neighbor?

So lesson learned make sure you order all your watches early November! After that wait till next year

Hmm sounds like I should switch dealers! I'll give him an email.

One is from a private sale, one is from watchinternational, and one is an eBay purchase from Hong Kong. All have tracking and not one says they have even left china.

I have bought 3 items from china all around the 2-5th of December. Not one item has showed to left china and not one item has made it to my box...

You really should consider buying a Rolex that's reference correct in all aspects. Dial, case, movement all match the reference number. IMHO you will not be taken very serious wearing that watch. You will appear to be over conpensating while wearing a genuine appropriate watch will you gain you the respect you are seeking. Plus with that much "bling" you could draw the wrong kind of people to you. On this specific watch pictured I'm gonna agree with what everyone is saying. This is most likely a fake at that price point. Anyways good luck and I hope you stay away from that particular watch. A few more thousand and you can find a nice used 18038 president with diamond dial and it will be very nice.

A gen dial just sold on eBay. Keep your eye on TRF and VRF. You should go gen with that type of build. Especially having a gen movement

What exactly did they bust?

What protection do you have as a buyer on the authenticity of these watches? Is your investment secure if a watch is not as advertised? How and why are these auctions in place

TD will not help you with a franken project. You will have to source all of your gen parts unless you know someone who has access to Rolex parts. TD can probably help you at the least source rep parts

It's definitely a ETA based 2824, gen insert, rep bezel ring, rep dial, gen crown and tube? How close am I??

I would do your research on the daytona sec at 6 problems before making the decision to buy one. Most people will tell you those are ticking time bombs. If you decide to buy one be ready to get a service!

The lume is ok but not matching in terms of brightness. Thanks a lot for your reply that really clarifies things!

Great post. I am interested in one of these but how good are they reliability and accuracy?
