Did you get marks on your wrist and/or pain from prolonged wearing as well? lol

Just curious, which model of ROO are you looking at, and any idea of the strap you want to fit on it?

Thanks Tim. Do you mean sanding the "protusions" of the deployant clasp? Do you have any experience with this? I want to try sanding it down but don't wish to spoil the entire part due to my inexperience. Thanks!

would a gen dial help in lining up the datewheel with the LWO283 movement?

I notice, after some time wearing the rep Hublot Big Bangs, that marks are left on the underside of the wrist, created by the clasp pressing upon the skin. The watch is not too tight, or too loose, but sometimes, I can feel discomfort wearing the HBB over a prolonged period. Is anyone else having this problem or is it just because I got strange wrists lol. I got pretty small wrists for a guy. Can someone help with some advice please? Thank you!

The pushers look too flat. Besides that, my inexperience, and lack of in depth knowledge? lol

Sounds good.. and yes I am willing to consider the RG finish in any form, as long as it appears aesthetically pleasing in the end.

Thank you all.. I am looking to buy a gen RG rubberclad and I would keep all your advice in mind!

I am new to this, and my question is one of curiosity, not challenge: How could you tell please? To me, I think the pushers look too flat at the top, and the hands seem to be rep ones. Thank you.

The surprising thing is that this seller has over 24000 and 99.8% good feedback. This watch is listed for over 26.000Euros. Is there any way this could be an authentic watch at all?

100% fake.. pushers are too flat, dial is wrong color, dial details are wrong as well

Yes it looks like sending it back is the best you can do under the circumstances. It would be good if you could also get the watch movement serviced while you are at it..

beautiful.. let us know when one of these are for sale!

lol pardon me, your post made me laugh and my mate thought I had gone crazy

Its very beautiful! I have the RG version of the same watch myself. Can't help but notice, but one of the strap links does not seem to be screwed in fully?

Yes, where did you order the parts from please?

I'm sorry.. its www.betterthandiamond.com

i recommend betterthandiamonds.com, for their ASHA collection, and outstanding service. My sis is a client there.

Thank you very much. Mom was right, I do need that pair of glasses after all.

Hello I have tried searching for the rules set for high value sales, but cannot seem to find them. Can someone please help me by telling me where the rules can be found, or tell me how to go about getting "approved" for high value sales please? Thank you LK

The APs reps are beautiful watches, concerns with detail accuracy aside. The more recent sec@12 movements have also been improved somewhat, making them much more reliable. I think more buyers will be drawn into buying APs as the quality, accuracy and movement evolve.

Hello Yes I guessed as much, that you have your own experience in rep watches, just that you appear to be new on this forum. Also, now that you clarified yourself in a different tone, I would like to thank you for the information rendered, and also a little apology to you if i offended you in any way. It is always good to get new perspective on matters like this. I don't buy from Josh or Andrew, so I would not know their supposed tendencies. I did consider purchasing the V3 from puretime before, due to the fact that my regular dealer did not have it available. She managed to "get" a piece from me, and have told me that the quality would be good compared with the V2. To be fair, I have probably less experience than you with regards to this watch, and I have nothing to add or take away from your argument. what I know is that visually, and from reviews posted by members who own the V3, it is a reasonable quality rep with minor flaws. I bought it after the research done. Let's hope I am not wrong about it! lol

A rep will always be a rep.. you may get reps which are closer to the gens for some models, and some disastrously far off. But I have to say that the reps are getting better in general with each new edition released. The AP diver has proved to be a very popular watch and I think its in the interest of the maker to get the details right for the watches that are more sales worthy. If you are saying that the TDs are saying the AP diver V3 is bad because they cannot get their hands on it, I do not know enough to comment on that. However, I do not think its nice for a newbie to say such a thing on his very first post here. Relax man, we're all here to enjoy a common hobby. Maybe you do have access to certain information on this matter that we don't. But your post is gonna incite the supporters of the TDs mentioned, not mentioning the TDs themselves.

A hacking movement helps us to set time accurately, yes. I wouldnt exactly use the word "stupid" for non-hack movements lol. Saw your post and was surprised into laughing. Its not for friends to see.. its for us to be able to stop the watch completely and set the time accurately.
