Nobody is denying the fact that he's a skilled watchsmith and had multiple good dealings with RWG members. But what's the big picture, what's his contribution to the forum? He's dodged requests to discuss the modifications that he performs and the majority of his posts read like a used car salesman spiels. He's using the board not to share and discuss but as an extension of his business without being an approved trusted dealer. Read his posts, they are simply presales; all of his "I built this for myself" & "keepers" would show up in the FS section within days of posting in the PAM section. The fact that he used lesser OP parts packaging like screws, etc. in crafty ways, made photographs of OEM parts from angles that would preclude proper identification, used creative selling techniques, e.g. stating the parts were OEM when they were stock or modified ETA -- all tell me that he was just trouble waiting to happen.
However, I support the ban not because Rockarep was operating in the "gray area". I support the ban due to the fact that Rockarep lied to the membership and the admin team by making and using a virtual shill account to promote his sales and badmouth other sellers whom he thought were his competitors.
So the OEM parts in his modded movements that he very much insisted that they were Oem panerai were indeed ETA parts! Clever marketing , i always wondered from where he got all the gen movement parts

Just read the rule no 9 regarding two accounts, it was wrong thing to do on his part being an intelligent guy he is , maybe he sould explain why he did this sort of chilidish thing

Too bad he makes some really exceptional watches , i am wondering what made him do this kind of thing and imo he should be given a warning not banned because he didnt scam anyone

Look around in the sales section you might find a good deal, its better to spend some more and go for the best versions as they are totally worth the money . Just my 2c

You are headed straight onwards towards Rookie of the Year ... to come in here, a straight up noob, learn about the models, buy a watch, fix it then mod it ... I'm very impressed.
