WOW! Looks great! Did you do the mods yourself?

I dont get why it is not available yet. you gotta figure, the first manufacturur to make a tw-best SD with correct HEV is gonna sell a billion units..... ....well, maybe not a billion...

I was wondering the same thing...I thought that was a nice touch on the latest G models..

Wow! awsome deal!

I dont think it is fair to single out Andrew, I think other dealers such as Eddie and Joshua are just as guilty of useing terms like best, ultimate or 1:1....

true, but if said newbie does not take the time to search and learn, it is his own damn fault. And even if he does buy a not so "ultimate" or "perfect" rep, he will still be getting a damn good watch at a damn good price...much better than if said newbie had not found this place and went with a scam site.

LOL

I believe dealers use terms like "best" or "ultimate" "or "Perfect" in order to distinguish between the "new and improved" current model, and older models. And while I have no objection to using "best" or "ultimate", I feel that "Perfect" - unless it is truly perfect – can be misleading, and should not be used. I think the system the PO seems to have adopted is the best. everyone knows the 4th gen is the newest and bestest; knows all the flaws; and the differences between it and the 3rd gen. It seems much more clear and concise.

uum...cliff notes for the lazy please....

Um, YES. you clearly did ask for our 2 cents/opinions...so I guess that makes YOU the idiot The problem is, youre question is as flawed as your SD. Your SD is not made "Impeccably well", infact there are several much, much better Rolex Reps available. ...but it is good that you like it.

you mean all modern SD rep's. the Vitage SD reps (MBW) kick ass (with a little work)

would love to see a lume shot if you get a chance...

umm...pics?

LOL! kinda anal. its such a small thing. anyone who would know that the spelling was wrong, would know the watch was a rep long before he/she spoted the mis-spelling. you wouldnt be fooling anyone...but yourself of course... My biggest worry about that watch is, which case is used? 1st gen, 2nd gen? Joshua said there is a 3rd gen...is the 3rd as solidly built as the 1st? or same as the 2nd? or even worse than the 2nd.... heh...I have a headach now..

that sux. I guess this is the rare case where those who bought version 1.0 got what they paid for! Nice to see it happens.

I thought I saw someone say the markers on the 187 were attched with pins or screws or somthing as well as glue...

Thanx for the info....I think I messed it up good. I tried what you said, to turn the crown to change the date, I did several (5 or 6) complete turns past 12, and the date never changed Mine does not have a crown/date function...other than turnming the hands...your does? I also tried pushing really har4d on the button, did nothing. I will try your idea to open the back next...

this may be a dumb question, but why didnt you have David assemble it for you? Oh, BTW looks aswome! And the pics are great! makes a guud DIY tutorial..

Hey all, So <sigh> I was going to wear my 7753 196 today. I wound it up, set the time and went to change the date...and the date pusher got messed up I have read people talking about this problem, But I never thought it could happen to me. I mean, I eat right, I exercise regularly, get lots of sleep, get regular checkups. How could this happen? If my recollection serves right, one way to avoid this was to not set the date within a few hours of midnight...so I am not sure why this happened. I set the time to around 8am before setting the date...maybe I didn’t push it in far enough, I have always been conscious not to push too hard cuz I didn’t want to break nothing...(get your minds out of the gutter) So anyway...anyone know how to fix this? Will this problem just work itself out (by letting it run for a few days) or did I bugger it up, and need to send it to the great white north for some The Zigmeister luvin? Thanx...I will try to be strong. <sniff, sniff> With all your support, I know I can get through this difficult time.

oooh, how is that camera, seems to be really good from what I have read...

Agreed, it is a bit of an extreme suggestion. "Locking" the door might not be the best idea, but leaving it wide open is a bad idea also. The reality is, we are participating in the buying and selling of illegal/counterfeit goods...the more underground (see; hush, hush) we keep our little hobby, the better for members and dealers...

Maybe its time to stop accepting new members....

Joshua, does this watch have the older case? or the newer case? Looking forward to this! thanx

If this, and other rep forums are a meter, I would say Panerai would be next in line....
