  1. You can flash 1500$ and more on a watch that will stop working after a few months.

    I already sent him PM ...

    Yes, that is THE thing that concerns me the most. As I saw trough my research, some of the lucky ones have no problem with gen movement but of course thats is the most expensive solution.

    Also I read here very positive fead back form users who did modification on asian movement ...

    I admit it is challenging project ....

    Lobster, I will post pictures when I finish :)

  2. Lobster,

    Thank you very much for your replay, I found it very helpful.

    Certainly I have all the time I need :) but I need to do little math ...

    Do you know estimate of cost for good modified 3714 ( gen movement, dial, hands, crown and AR ) ?

    Only thing I know now is cost of rep , which is around 330 euro with all shipping cost.

    How much I can expect for all this game ?

  3. First hello to everyone :)

    I'm new to rep watches, so please be gentle ...

    Recently I decided to go for my holly grail which is 3714 - 17, so I did my homework and search forum about this topic.

    As I see it will be a big challenge to finish this project but big challenge = big excitement

    First thing is to buy good rep watch. Out of my research I found two dealers: trusy times and replicamake.com. Replicamake has one great feature which is video of watch.

    What do you think about this dealers ?

    Next thing is to find genuine dial, hands and crown. That is seam to be easy task but I will see. I found that some of the members ( hugo, concepta ) can provide those parts. I sent them PM but there is no responce, maybe because I'm a new member with no posts ... I will wait and see ...

    Does anybody knows how much are those parts ? I'm living in EU, so perhaps it will be much easier for me to deal with some EU guy who can provide those parts. Anybody knows someone from EU ?

    And the biggest issue, as we all know is the movement. I saw on replicamake.com that this 3714 now use New Improved 29J Version of Asian 7750 Valjoux, so I'm interested in how good this improvement is ?

    What do you suggest about movement ? Buy genuine one or do service to asian movement and wait for bomb to explode ... ? I herd that Domenico from Germany can provide very good service and that he is great guy ...

    Last thing is crystal, I suppose that this rep doesn't have AR on crystal, and AR gives a huge difference to watch appearance. So does gen watch have AR on bouth sides or just on the back ?

    Thanks in advance.

    sorry about my English ... :)
