Bart little crap like this, from sales thread.

"I built an amazing 5513 a couple years ago using one of these as a base. Even has the gasket channel under retaining ring. " differences may be small but they are there.

That is true as mentioned in prior post. Without going down a least here these cases are desirable as they are the best base for builds our board has many members that franken their watches. If you are going to just buy and wear a cartel model will be fine, but if you are looking to mod this one is worth it as one gen part you buy that doesn't work out on the cartel may cover the price difference. This is not to say you could not have a misfit w/ one of these but it does better your odds. I am sure others could site minute differences but the bottom line is better .

For one takes gen parts.

Well 7 post 5 years about time you joined the conversation, welcome!

The boards position is stated here in my post above, just in case you missed it.

"Alfalover as far as helping you find a place to get value of your watch or place to sell as a watch board we can surely help out as far as the tragic problem with your Moms dog best to check out some charities that help out with such things (we have them in the USA) to make up the short fall."

I felt no compunction to be blunt.

Did not really notice gents was busy drooling over the watches and was not concerned with Rolexfinder but the rule is the rule so I have PMed him in regard. We were talking anyway and Rolexfinder hae generously donated one of these stellar watches for our next raffle so be on the look out!

I agree, it's good for reps anything that keeps money flowing people working.

Panerai I agree but then again I wonder: If their major market is the uniformed why all the updates V this that and to be honest some really stellar offerings so so close even by our standards. Joe Blow from Kokomo has no idea......................

Why bother.

Well guys we are full up for our next raffle but I promise to commission one of these or whatever build is current from Legend for one. It is however somewhat of a problem as Mr"A" is very hard for me to send money to, he always wants to give the stuff away to RWG at a silly price !

Now now you promised Fluffy...................

To put a liitle spin on this, China is in the shitter now their markets are crashing taking the rest of us w/ them. How will this effect reps I wonder.........................

Very nice now if only "Mr A." did these with Rolex......................vintage that is.  I know Legend one of these days I have to warm up to APs !

Alfalover as far as helping you find a place to get value of your watch or place to sell as a watch board we can surely help out as far as the tragic problem with your Moms dog best to check out some charities that help out with such things (we have them in the USA) to make up the short fall. You know I put down 2 of my dogs sometimes you just have to be strong for them not to suffer.

Sorry no idea but looks pretty cool, no markings names at all on it If so maybe have to open case look at movement.

WOW that's the bees knees of 5513's, wear in good health!

Happy New Year gents ,all the best in the new year!

Well 44 not to crazy but then 16 put it together it will where big as kernow said, it's an A7750 so shit sometimes hit the fan. Just wear it leave the chrono alone (as in never run, check it forget it) and pray it is a good one.Still could crap out even the day you get it ...............................

Of course Donerix is top shelf but if you are not willing to spend that much.......

There is a seller on Ebay from Vietnam that will make you any strap at a good price from exotic skins if you want.. Guys I lost the link , anyone...............................

One of the guys next store has one:

his shots

Simply terrible you should ship it to me so it is not seen!

I would think Bell and Ross is going to jump them it's pretty damn close almost a rep. A matter of fact I think the LH is a better looking watch, nice dome crystal, red triangle, bezel insert all appeal to me more.

I think and I am no computer guy either "leave conversation" , get ride of them one at a time. No going back though........................

Don't know about bang for the buck but cashing in on the Omega 300 for sure.

Or maybe the Bell and Ross..................

Lew & Huey has announced the next watch model is the Phantom. The Lew & Huey Phantom features three different dials, each with a date or no date option, and PVD or stainless case. The case diameter is 42mm with 22mm lugs, 10 ATM WR, high dome acrylic crystal, ‪#‎sandwichdial‬, 120 click 12 hour bezel, Seiko NH35 automatic movement, buffalo grain leather strap with off-white stitches.

The watch will sell for around $400 to $500 with lower prices for preorders.

Case closed, buyer got an ETA which IMHO looks better than what he contracted for.

PS thanks guys as many know I am not a movement guy not to say I could not research and figure out on this one  but better to use knowledge of guys who know just by looking.

I am focusing here gents

Clone?
