Back on topic, has anyone actualy bought/tried on this rep? Any feedback?

bump. Anyone purchased one of these?

he says "This is an unbelievable chance to get this beautiful example of Patek Philippe Horology for a price that is reasonable and below list price of $181,000.", but the Buy Now price is $205,000. huh?

Here is the oil chart - great pic

looking at a few of the dealers sites, I can only find the GMT available in the 40mm, is it also available in the 42/42.5mm?

i have a few sacraficial watches lined up - gotta start somewhere. Picked up some old automatic watches from a flea market, $10 each for some old Citizens and Siekos, all working well (owner thought they were broken cos they only worked when you 'shook' them.)

picture #2 raises a question I've had for a while - I've just bought a watch tool kit, and they all come with a hammer. I cant image what you would need a hammer for when dealing with movements?!?

Here are a efw books I have found on Amazon.com, anyone seen these and can provide any comments? Simplified Mechanical Watch Repair For Profit Practical Watch Repairing

hi all, Can anyone recommend any good books or websites that provides step by step instructions on pulling apart and reconstructing movements, preferably with lots of pics and descriptions. I have a few old watches that i would like to play with, and i have pulled one apart but have no chance in hell of reconstructing it. A few places i have found include: www.horlogerie-suisse.com www.pmwf.com (See 'How-to' menu on right) Pretty good pics and instructions, but just basic operations (removing and replacing a movement, changing hands) http://www.timezonewatchschool.com/WatchSchool This is a paid site, anyone joined this? Any good? It seems that they wont let you join the class unless you buy one of their (over priced) tool kits as part of the deal, Sounds like extortion to me.

Sorry, but what is the point of PMing this information when so many ppl need it?! Isnt the whole point of a forum to post this info publically?! dont mean to sound rude, i'm just confussed.

Heres another one i just found: www.horlogerie-suisse.com

I'm not talking about to someone who knows its a rep and ok with that (I know i would be). But someone who doesnt know anything about watches/brands, and buying them a good quality rep with a good movement (probably not a swiss though). A good rep is still a lot nicer than some cheap brand, but it would rather embarassing for somewho wearing a watch if someone pointed out to them that they were wearing a rep without knowing it.

TRC?
