  1. I'm so happy that I got my v2 through you when it was still available. I doubt they'll ever replicate the Sub as well again.

    However, v1 might be the best base for a franken because of those amazing SELs (providing you install a gen dial). But the combo of v2 + v1 SELs, gen insert and gen crown is tough to beat. At least when you think from a financial standpoint.

  2. I don't mind if they're attacking those scam sites and Ioffer. It's all very shady business and those scammers deserve to be deleted.

    If places like Bestswiss and Replicacenter go down, I don't see any damage done. Au contrary.

    I like reps but I never had any illusions about the counterfeit manufacturers. They're crooks and criminals and it's only logical that authorities are interested. It's the name of the game.

    The members who buy are more like drug users... poor SOBs who can't control their addiction. That means we're innocent. :D

  3. Looks great. One of the best Rollie reps ever made. Yeah your SELs aren't that great... they're always "hit and miss" on the Noobfactory watches. Other than that... fantastic.

    One thing you might want to remember: Never use the independently adjustable hour hand setting. There is very damage-prone system which WILL wear out if you do. When the "fork" wears out, the hour hand won't be working at all... it will stop following the minute hand.

    Spare parts can't be found. When it breaks, your watch is trashable. Been there, done that.

    I believe you'll be ok if you only set the time and date from the hack position. My white CHS ExpII lasted for years this way. Never any problems.

  4. I'm a vintage Rolex ignoramus... well, pretty much. I can spot a gen and rep vintage Submariner and Dwellers but that's it.

    Tell me... why do the SELs on this watch are so loose and fit so badly (on rep and gen)?

  5. 3 first photos are of a gen, the last 2 lousy pics are of a rep (wokky piece of shit). And suddenly there's the old style Rolex box in the background whereas the first 2 pics have the modern version.

    You can clearly see that there is different camera & different photography skill levels involved.

    Stay the hell away. That's a clear scam attempt.
