Jacob straps are the absolute best after OEM... followed by Donerix and AP bands IMO

Hi APnoobster.... Visiting member from RWG here... I hope you post some pics when you receive your watch.... I know lighting conditions play a part but the first three pics look very YG The last three ... do look quite RG... Not quite sure why the light may have been changed half way through a shoot but it sure looks that way.... even the colour of the white background has changed...!!! PS... Was just looking at your AP list.... we have a near identical collection of AP's.. great taste..... notwithstanding just had 5 stolen... !!

Check kingwatch I know of someone that bought two there.. end of Dec

It appeared to be discontinued..... but it is back up on the AP site again..... next to the ceramic in the line up...... I think AP may have resolved their FC issues..... With regard to WP........ I would never trust the facs claims with any of my watches...... I have the V3 and H fac FC divers... and they with about 5 other AP´s will al be going to Domi for WP.. AR.... and movement mods.... SS models .. a re polish as well

emailed Toro yesterday about one... he can get it..... I can´t stand the strap it´s on....guessing he can do rubber instead ... but all TD´s I believe out of SS bracelet.... i´ll prob get rubber and order a Jacob ... or Orloff

Got my RB II From Ryan a couple of weeks ago...... Mightily impressed........ and these in the last few weeks as well V5 Diver from him...... same again.....fantastic close to gen rep And a ROO Tour... nice it´s not on every other website And a chronopassion....... sublime watch... I love it.... And a Survivor winging its way to me as I write Top TD Ryan......

Chronopassion... is simply class...... so beautifully made.... Will do a side by side of my newly received rep ROO RG RC against my Gen tomorrow

The AP's come out the factory like that with different ,materials..... For me it's about as getting as close to gen as possible...... I do agree that it is about doing what you want and like though.... and you can always go back... As Oscar Wilde said.. Fashion is what one wears oneself.... What is unfashionable....... Is that ...... that others wear !!!!!

You can say the same about the watches..... but it's sorta price prohibitive for most people.......... at a OEM strap cost of twice the cost of the whole (secs @12) rep watch..... it's like putting a $2000 platinum band on a $50 cubic zirconia diamond.... I have 3 Gen AP ROO's ...... all have AP bands as spares...... and will be getting some Jacobs .... some Migloiore... and some Orloffs for them as well Simples....... AP's are amazing..... but they are also a bloody rip off and if you can save a few bucks for something that is virtually indistinguishable...... hell yes

agreed... why would you do that...... you will have a see through cover with a metal colour that doesn't match....... and will shout.... my watch is an abomination made of surpless parts

Of course..... customs can't and don't open every package.......... but if any TD sends out watches with a declared value of $500 that I get charged $150 duty on including processing fees....... which stands as much chance of being opened as a declared value $18 package He will clearly be suffering from the infamous....... I want to destroy my business virus !!!!!

All ROO's are perfect... but it just has to be perfect to the person who chose it and wears it !!

You are joking aren't you......what you are buying is counterfeit ..... illegal to manufacture...... if it is stopped and checked at customs...... it will be seized.... so the answer is You will not have to pay tax !!!!

This Dealer needs to come on this forum and learn how to take a decent photo of his $80k watches !!!!

This dealer is legit.....I was only saying the box and papers are ONE of the things you look for.... one of the MINOR things you look for.....in a list as long as your arm.... It's like saying when you buy a used car..... I bought the car cos the tyres were ok Scammers will take gen movements out of gens and put reps in.... and the other way around.....and the list goes on The only thing you can do ito be 100% is buy from a very reputable dealer.. and still get it checked out by an AD with a watch maker in store.....

They will never get the Kevlar composite strap right.... and it's the only one IMO that does that beautiful piece justice .... and that's without mentioning secs @9

99.9% real....he's got over 7,000 positive feedback selling high endish stuff .... about 17 other AP's ... some of them butt ugly...... He's had over 4,000 hits on the page.... hence the 8 offers.... They have an actual showroom in NYC...... and telephone nos you can check.... etc etc This watch is Gen Rep sellers... don't have genuine boxes... and papers which are easy to spot... and usually very low feedback... limited blurb and a quick 3 day sale to see if they can catch someone !!! If you are careful you can buy Gen on Ebay... but I mean really carefull I sourced my Gen AP ROO Rose Gold Rubberclad off ebay...... made an offer... it was accepted..... so I bought it.... Guy was an authorised Rolex retailer.... and I still travelled to Italy to pick it up and pay in person...... That's what I mean by being .... really careful !!!!
