  1. Somehow reminds me of a g shock but have to second legend..definitely not a bad looking watch. Enjoy it and this will last longer for sure
  2. Tc, bk but you will be more than happy with every sub supplied by our td's!
  3. Hi and welcome to the forum! So in brief the noob factory hold for a long time the monopoly for asian movements with sec @12 which is definitely necessary for all the ROO models. Reliability (movements were said to be timebombs) was the biggest problem but over the years this got better and you always have the option to have it serviced or even done a jewel mod. Now J12 factory changed the whole game and we know have an oligopoly basically. Still the ROO has the flaws like the wrong dw and crown position which is due to the movement. Quality wise I can only tell about noob which is very good. J12 is said to be excellent as well but you have to read as much reviews as you can and start comparimg yourself. At the end of the day you need to be happy with your watch and maybe some models are better from one maker and vice versa. Hope this helps at least a little
  4. the sun is shining so I am wearing my ap fc
  5. Ceejay you have sold me for the dg3804 movement but will the cartel or rolexpete dw fit the movement and is the movement ring included by cartel version of 1655 usable in this case? Thanks for all the info guys
  6. I am on the fence builing a 1675 aswell. I already have a gen plexi and recently ordered a yuki 1675 white dial. I wanted to go with ingod44 but as far as I know he's out of business or extremely hard to contact so I went on with yuki. I will order a cartel 1655 and caseback as well as hands I will get from Rafflestime. Ceejay why is everybody using the dg3804 movement and not the eta2836 with gmt function? About the insert and bezel assembly I am not sure what the difference is yet between these both but I will certainly get one of them. Any experts can chime in and tell us what's the difference is? http://www.ebay.com/itm/BEZEL-INSERT-ROLEX-BLUE-RED-GMT-1670-1675-16750-/160797503878?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2570473186 or the more expensive one from Clark's http://www.ebay.com/itm/ROTATING-BEZEL-INSERT-ROLEX-OLD-GMT-BLUE-RED-1675-16750-/170838596185?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item27c6c61a59 Thanks for any help
  7. Prices are ridiculous, aren't they?
  8. As aforementioned you won't get a good 14060 rep but the noob ceramiv 114060 is excellent but if you like the old look get a cartel 5513 (you get this from trustytime or perfectclones) and enjoy the watch and keep on reading and learning on the forum. Soon your standars will rise and you can for instance change the dial with a yuki 5513 dial and handset and chase a gen cristal, crown and tube and you will end up with a very nice 5513. But if you like the ceramic version, which is also very appealing in my eyes, and you are not feeling like taking your watch apart and changing parts go for the noob ceramic version which is an excellent rep. Hope this helps
  9. I ordered one from toro. With this low price for noob quality you can't go too wrong I guess
  10. Thanks cc! It's priced around 400usd..
  11. Does this dial seem legit to you and what would be a fair price for it? I am planning to probably build a nice 16750 in the near future and got this dial offered. Thanks for any advice in advance
  12. one of my first reps but still running strong and definitely a nice dress watch
  13. went fishing today with my tc sub and got me some delicious dinner
  14. Awesome watch and great photo skills mate Enjoy!
  15. Great job Thomas. Also the v5 93250 bracelet is a huge step forward keep it up
  16. Pretty bad fake!
  17. Nope doesn't look gen!
  18. As the title said I would be glad to get his actual email address. Somehow not able to find it. In case it should not be published I would be glad if someone could send me a pm. Thanks and cheers
  19. Looks good go for it!
  20. Does the new tc 93250 v5 bracelet really make the difference? Yes it certainly does and it is in every way better tha the previous 93250 v4. Due to the recessed SEL fitment compared to the v4 bracelet it gives the whole watch a much more gen like appearance. Moreover, it folds exactly like the genuine 93250. Only drawback is the v5 clasp on which the coronet isn't stamped as nicely as on the v4. So the best combination is a v5 bracelet with the v4 clasp. In the first picture the v4 mounted and compared to a genuine 16610lv. On the other pictures the v5 is mounted with the v4 clasp. The right is always the genuine.
  21. TC v6 with gen insert, gen crystal with LEC and AR and new tc v5 bracelet 93250 with v4 clasp...cracking watch
  22. How much did you pay? Can you mak a quick comparison?
  23. Safari today
  24. Indeed not perfect. Ask for a new set and maybe its not really a v6 unless they have fixed the blueish hands issue. Lets wait for an ap expert to chime in
  25. did they fix the hand isse? lume doesn't look excellent but bear in mind its a rep and you aren't able to see that when you have the watch on the wrist! If you want new qc probably you receive a watch with other flaws..rather have a little sloppy lune than a scratched case for example.. But if you are sure that this will bug you just ask for a new set of qc pics. Your choice!
