I don't own this watch, so I'm in no position to comment, but, based on the images, the watch they have on the trusted dealers' sites is not very accurate. I'm pretty sure there is no "Limited Edition" or this watch.

hmm... maybe. I actually haven't thought of that. If his after the vintage collection, I don't think there are any good reps. Trusty has some on his site and even some other dealers, but they are not accurate. Am I wrong, japanic?

You'll need to be more specific on the model and even year, but in any case I believe there are no correct reps for vintage timepieces. The factories are focused on more current high-end models, due to request and gen watches/parts availability. Vintage watches are sold for low(er) prices and I believe you'll be able to buy a very nice gen from a dealer even on ebay for a very reasonable price.

My first suggestion would be to get more familiar with the forum. There is tons of information on this watch here. And this comes from a new member, just like yourself. Trust me, you'll have zero, and I mean zero, questions. Second - read the review of the watch. Third - head over to the trusted dealers section on this site. In any case Joshua, Trusty Time, Pure Time and many others, all have this watch in their inventory.

Anyway... Just ordered one from Joshua. Will write a full review as soon as it's at my doorstep.

Great advice. I'll have to remember it.

Tommy Hilfiger - I buy them even without trying them on. They just fit perfectly.

I think it's a very good rep. Some minor imperfections, but overall a very good rep. Wear it well!

I think that this is one of the best otb rep out there. My guess is that Joshua has it. 1-pc8838[dot]com. Trustytime and puretimewatch also have it. Check out the "trusted" dealers list here

Excellent rules. I'm a big fan of Patek, especially the Nautilus, but given my current income level and social status, it would be unthinkable for me to own one. Sure I can buy a great rep of this beautiful, masculine watch, but it would look so out of place on my wrist, that I wouldn't go even near it in the AD shop.

Thank you, Jkay, I will. Hope to answer some as well.

I'm lucky I only managed to add a watch to the shopping cart, but not to purchase it. Imagine that: you place an order and as soon as you do that the site goes down. That would make me feel extremely uncomfortable. Would probably make me second-guess the whole idea of purchasing a rep. @thogaa - I'm an idiot. He's using gmail, obviously

Before coming to these forums, Rolex would be my obvious choice. Now, I guess it depends on a wearer and the context. A local grocery store owner near our home wears a Breitling, which I'm sure is a rep. On a second thought I don't even care if it's a gen - it looks fake on him. If you are going hiking, don't wear you Portuguese, if you are serving tables, don't wear your Patek. Even if it's a gen you got as a present from your grandfather - it's a fake. Reading through these forums I've come to appreciate a well executed rep as much as a gen. I believe that to replicate a fine watch to the smallest details takes as much energy and ingenuity. I respect a brand, but today I respect the watchsmith more. I don't think I care if he's a Swiss guy working for Panerai or a member of this forum modding and remodding his Speedmaster. In short: "wear your watch well" - is not a cliché.

Anything from Nomos Tangomat line. A wonderful dress watch, in my opinion, and should be easy to rep Sinn 6000

His site went down, so, if his email server is hosted on the same server, he may not be able to receive emails as well. Hope everything is ok with him. Funny thing that his site went down just seconds before I placed an order.

Thanks for the information. Exactly what a rep-noob like myself needs. I'm looking at a watch with Asian 2892 automatic movement, so my guess is that it falls under the third category. Being a detail and accuracy aficionado, the replication accuracy and precision is an important aspect of the watch for me, so I'm prepared to pay for them. I'd like to have a good out of the box rep, with a decent movement, but a great dial, AR, etc as a start and maybe even upgrade it later.

Thanks, Mike. It's great to be here. I'm new to the rep world, but I'm learning a lot by browsing here. I hope I'll be able to contribute as well, once I purchase my first rep.

I've seen a couple of new models on "trusted" dealers' sites and since this watch was on my (short) wishlist for a while now, I wonder if anyone has it. How accurate it is, externally, and how reliable the movement is? Any help will be highly appreciated.

Hi guys, I was actually on a market to buy a gen and somehow have found your fine community and since then I've been religiously reading this forum and felt it's time to post a couple of questions. I've always felt that if I would buy a fine watch it will be the only timepiece I'll ever own, but now I believe I actually can follow my passion for horology and start a small collection of gens and reps. So, thank you for all the information and I hope I will be able to help others as well. Cheers.
