I'm more into modern divers, but the watches being built in this thread could easily sway me towards something like these. Keep up the fantastic work guys.

I've not checked all the links you posted. All replica watches will deviate somewhat from the gen. if it's only the pearl that looks off to you then that's an easy fix. Don't get too caught up in AAA+ and 1:1 reps - there's no such thing, it's only marketing to get you to buy! Pick your favourite and go from there. Enjoy, relax and bear in mind you're spending probably 10% of the cost of the gen.

Try looking in his TD section. https://rwg.cc/forum/274-torobravo/

The 'correct hand stack' used to be an issue, not so sure anymore. I'm sure someone will chip in.

Some of the older models had a fixed dial at 3 - as in the minute and hour hand were fixed together - not ideal. However the newer ones seem to function as per gen, or so some TD videos show. Ask your TD which this is. Additionally, once you receive the watch have it serviced by a decent Watchsmith to make sure it'll keep running. Otherwise, buy and enjoy.

If you know the maker try Toro as he's helped me in the past.

Or as we say this side of the pond Happy Traitors Day! Which ever you call it have a good one.

No problem mate. Post some photos when you get it.

+ 1 for SSTEEL

You could measure the inside diameter of the bezel and compare yo gen. or, how about asking silix for a replacement?

@deandavis Here you go, I know you're next door too. http://www.repgeek.com/showthread.php?282734-For-Sale-Rep-Omega-Seamaster-Professional Just be quick or it'll be gone.

Yes, such a good film critic. Also loved his Spitting Image caricature, they had him down to a T!

Hey it's great that be young again! But congrats to our "old timers" too

Thank you. It's a pleasure to be part of the community.

Nothing to add to this, just saying that sometimes things take an age to be resolved. My wife sent a package to Brazil that went backwards and forwards between the UK and Brazil 4 times as undeliverable - is was small enough to carry with one hand. Every excuse came out; recipient not at home to parcel too big to deliver. When it arrived back home some 6 months later we never resent it as the newborn baby was too big for the clothes which were in the parcel!

Are they looking for food or admiring the view?

Nice, I think it deserves a new bezel and insert after all those years of faithful service. Wear in good healthy.

Oddly enough I don't have a bond Seamaster. Although I'd love a 2541 one day. Please share some photos. SSTEEL built mine above. I had a spare dial in need of a relume along with some gen hands. I also had a closed factory case. After sourcing a PO bezel all the parts were sent to Micky. He had the crystal double AR coated and the hands and dial relumed. Pop in a nice copy ETA and all is good. I'm very happy with it too.

Sorry for turning the fountain yellow

Just noticed that I joined here 4 years ago today. I know I'm still a newbie compared to some here, but thanks to the knowledge and friendship of the members here I am much more well informed. So just wanted to say thank you all for your input.

Oops, yes you're correct! I didn't engage brain before my reply. There are plans for the wave dialed Seamaster to be rereleased though. Try contacting a few TDs for an update.

These should still be available from any of our trusted dealers. Try contacting them directly.

I had a spare 2230 dial that needed a relume. SSTEEL had it done by Matej and then built it into this.

@MRWOZZA70 How about building a 2230.50? There's a dial on Ebay at the moment.
