And this is how it starts (for most of us). You get your 1st rep, like it a lot. Then you start doing more-n-more reading about every little flaw on reps. Then you start noticing some of the flaws on yours. So you start moving up the chain. Buy a nicer one from the M2M sales section and sell your 1st rep, Cheap. Then this process continues (sometimes daily). More reading, noticing more flaws that now start to really bug you, Every time you look at the watch. So even though you said you never would, you spend even more on a ‘better’ model. Now you’re moving up and into the “let’s start swapping out a few parts’ mode.”
It’s all downhill from here ( or at least for me it is). Now I’m going into the Super Franken mode! My next build will have Gen Dial, hands, insert, date wheel, crystal, crown, tube, gaskets & modified case with a y3135 engine.
So even though it may seem like you’ll Never go down this road right now, here is my advice. Start stashing away a little every day now. Trust me, you’re gonna need it!
