Mike on a bike

Nice Andy , love the title but then again we are PG so what was I hoping for!

Let me put it to you this way cost $350 now if a guy buys it who can not fix it's 100 to get a watch smith to open take a look see & fix if nothing big but what if movement totally screwed or may be just a screw loose stopping it who knows. Not many rolling the dice on that because> if it was running fine but used watch it would go for 275-300 (watches lose value once not new), so your best bet is to fix then sell or get lucky and one of our watch smiths picks it up as he can fix no cost for himself.

Disesel I have conus guys but best to get EU out of the way before shipping back to USA, then we have Asia.

I agree , most of the problems I get in PM box from members are movement issues. If you can not fix your own (which most of us can't, myself included) you either send watch back to China (a nightmare I always advise against) or increase the cost even more by sending to one of our watch smiths, now we are back to cost against a mid tier gen. On the flip side you will get a very accurate looking well running Rep for what 10% or less of a gen of that model in the end. This is why it is called a hobby the one watch wonders who pay 4-5 hundred bucks for the latest sub and have a movement problem go off on dealers, the hobby, me LOL!, those of us who have been around w/ large collections just take it in stride get it fixed without drama.

Rick actually quite an astute observation as a noob, we long timers have noticed this also and there have been discussions. Two major points usually agreed on are: Yes REP are better but pricing is to high they are into gen automatic watch area from very refutable makers around for years forget micros plenty of nice ones out there. Secondly the overall trend of males to not wear watches ,they have their phone for time. In any event welcome and good luck on your journey into the REP world, remember gaining the knowledge to achieve your goals is half the fun.

Google Rolex 1803 and see for yourself..................

Well if he was correct worth a lot more as I saw pricing on these while researching for you.

Well that 0750 is on 3131 but they are Daytonas from what I can find. Either worthless or a real rare bird and then your talking some $! A pimped out 1803 maybe guys? Crown and case profile pics would help, also you feel comfortable opening to take a look see at the movement?

Well worry is relative, did you buy from a TD / If so no worry if not yes worry. As far as raids they do this every so often , part of the game over there .

Will try and and make it mate, a bit of a haul for me 2 hours and getting home at 7 or so that morn from work.

Gen right. I'd practice on an Asian and send it of to Mike................but I do that with everything , better safe than sorry. PS yes 20 miles of mostly water!

Amp lower, shit "P" ..................

Bart you are really getting tired of this one and you should sell it to me as it's my birth year grail watch!! LOL PS Stunning you are an artist..............

Since Nov. TF, keep me posted on this.

Give it some time , I'm sure some have some thoughts/experience with it.

I had those before the watch!

I'd go out with it , no shame!

I was like OK take one for the team wore it on vacation down the beach, very well received.............. Did you see the pic w/ my matching bathing trunks! LOL!!

Guys it is actually really nice on a 56 K USDs watch in gen, believe it or not!!

So any of you guys want to wear our PINK watch!

Never could bond those Yachts or any Yacht-master, strange me being a Rolex guy.

By the way unless you really know your models and I mean different reps movements , cases , dial flaws, crystals of model/s your looking at stay away from DHg, this is not for Noobs.

Welcome , enjoy the search it is half the fun.

They are there.................

Hey brother whats up? That LV you checked out for me coming up in the next raffle, maybe you get lucky again!
