Rolex is not really cutting off their suppliers. However, if you need a part, you must send them the old one first. Did I mention you had to be certified by them also. As of now swiss eta is being mfg. It's been a workhorse of the automatic watch industries. Im sure someday, the 2836's 24's &34's may reach 500.00 Automatico you are correct, the asian clone is not really a clone, it's a copy. The parts, right down to the screws are of very poor quality. It's like buying a bolt at a bolt store, there are bolts with no markings on the top, very poor quality, and another looks just like it, same size exactly, with 6 marks on the top, very high strength and high quality. The bolt with no markings is the asian clone, the one with 6 marks is the gen swiss..

I have been doing reps for 27 years. I always use gen swiss 2836-2 and 2834-2. I used to by them new, $30.00. And that was just buying 1 at a time. If I bought more than 1 I got an even bigger break. Of course then, I could call rolex in NY and order anything I needed, and it would be here in a couple of days. My, how times have changed

May I suggest that whatever you buy, pay the extra money and get a SWISS eta. You will be glad you did.

You know if someone contacts ebay and complains that an item might be fake, they will remove it.

yes i have dial spacers

Not one of you would have passed it if it had been offered to you in the exact same situation. In fact, you would have been showing it off in church the next sunday, and thanking God for your good fortune. Can anyone give me an AMEN

The cyclops looks to be at a bit of an angle, still good pics and nice watch

I have the exact same insert, everyone tells me it's fake, I think it's real. These days, who really knows for sure. Good purchase

I just got an mail with my rwg user name included saying that rwg was using a new harddrive and maybe I couldn't log on, if not log on at some strange user config. I was so nervous i couldn't delete it fast enough, anyone else get this email?

If it is a fake, it's a damn nice one

Not one of you would have not done the exact same thing. The watch business like so many other businesses, has no moral values. Anyone anywhere will drive a hundred miles if there is a steal on a watch. Good fortune like that makes up for the rip offs you have also experienced. The problem is, the rip offs far exceed the great deals, by say, 100 to1

The pearl should press fit into the insert. Then from the back put a small amount of super glue or 5 min epoxy and let harden. Should hold it from now on.

we opend it yesterday, 100% gen, and very nice I might add. Deals like this, is the reason we keep a stash. You never know what's around the next corner, or what the next phone call will be.

I thought so when I first saw it

2879 is low beat, and not incobolic.

I have some. However the dial ring look exactly the same, but the one for a 2834 and 2824 are different than a 2836-2.Just a hair smaller

Tell her after you give it to her it is a rep. If she is economical, she will like it even more.

I have them white or champagne

I build datejust myself. I must say if it looks half as good in person as in the picture, very nice.

The ones I have seen with a 3035, have taken a 6.0MM crown.

Oh my God!!! LOL

FOUND!!!! HELP PLEASE!!!! SOMEONE SENT ME A WATCH FOR REPAIR WITH NO CONTACT INFO. PLEASE, YOU KNOW WHO ARE PM ME. FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO MIGHT THINK YOU CAN FOOL ME, I HAVE QUESTIONS THAT ONLY THE SENDER WILL KNOW THE ANSWER TO.

A white dial daytona is a must. All the others are personal preference. All of those watches are beautiful, no matter what color dial they have

contact irolexu, he can certainly guide you in the right direction.

Please guys don't confuse him. He is looking for his first rep. Buy an inexpensive submariner, and over the months that you are wearing it, you can study more expensive and higher quality subs offered on this forum. All the dealers are trustworthy, if they are not the forum will let everyone know immediatly. Meanwhile you have a sub, not an expensive one, and as you become educated on the reps, you can begin to look for the one you want. Meanwhile you get to wear a rep and enjoy it untill the right one comes along
