You see this is why I'm starting to slowly abandon this hobby.

Do you maybe see a pattern?
This will be off topic, but are you sure it's worthwhile to embark on this extremely complicated task given that the date window is itself too small and incorrectly placed on the Nautilus rep? Wouldn't it just make more sense to get an Aquanaut, with the already correct datewheel, aperture, and font?
They could even make this a quartz and nobody would call it out because there's no running seconds.
Ahh those Asian rep manufacturers... so many missed opportunities..
I guess the officers on duty at interpol have been busy at work learning photoshop so they can make more artistic mugshots of their most sought-after criminals?
As the owner of a classy VC rep myself I can honestly say you can't do wrong with that choice.
It is part of the "Les Historiques" collection and it shows; things back then were made with a certain kind of class that modern watches seem to lack. I love how the shape of it just seems to flow so naturally; what's more, the stainless-steel caseback means a resilient underbelly that won't get damaged or faded like some other fully gold-plated watches.
All around this is an incredible watch and while it may not be blingy like a "Hublot" or safe like a "Datejust" its in a unique category defined by excellence and fine craftsmanship from days-gone-by.
Congratulations on the watch and thanks for the pictures... there are very few around of this particular model.
I've never seen any dealers carry these products, sorry.
I think your only hope we be to ask Kenberg... maybe he can source them for you... but I doubt it.
yes I have purchased many. My advice to you:
1. Stay away from replica fountain pens. They are garbage and do not work. If you want a MB fountain then get GEN.
2. Do not spend more than $30 on a fake pen.
3. The Imperial Dragon Rollerball has surprisingly long-lasting gold applique
4. The Starwalker is a very good (and affordable) rep.
The lack of quality fit and finish means the rep could be even more accurate. They always say you can't replicate the feel of a gen, well after reading this, I beg to differ... if it's even half as good as some of my other reps we could be looking at the next super rep. Not to mention it would sell like crazy. They'll make one eventually... I believe it.
