  1. Here are images of the super avenger gen dial and hands I am looking to buy on ebay in usa. can experts please have a look and tell what you think about their authenticity?
  2. Hi I have decided to do a franken super avenger. I would like to know which rep version is the best to swap with gen dial and hands to start with. And also a rough idea what can be a good price for gen dial and hands for it? I have seen few dials on ebay around $130-160 and hands around $ 70. Other tips are most welcome. cheers
  3. thanks for you time guys, i have been already told to use this forum, if see some thing post pictures here get advice from experts. yes i will do that, i m spending a lot time searching n reading stuff here coz last thong i want is to loose money foolishly. most of the things up till now are common sense but its very uncommon. i am hopping the real deal will come soon. i will get back to you guys after some more reading and searching. cheers Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. even if buying from some one with 1000s of feedbacks on ebay? still risky? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. ok i have choice of few breitling watches and i have seen their gen parts like dials, hands, crowns and pushers available on ebay and other online shops, but would like to know if the reps are compatible with gen parts? skyland avenger, steel fish, black steel and B01. i would like to do the dials mainly and staps or bracelets later.

  6. ok but I will bring it up here just to be sure if the rep takes gen parts.
  7. thanks mike I take your advice. cheers
  8. you mean find a rep in which gen parts are like a straight swap??
  9. Hi Ok I am thinking to mod an omega or breitling. I would like to know what is the right way do it? Should I first choose a rep watch, buy it and then try to find gen parts for it and mod it or should I look and see what gen parts can I get that I can afford and buy the right rep watch compatible with those gen parts and then mod it?

  16. i think its 7750 but crown just changes the time, by the 10 you mean with the key that came with it to be used to rotate that button at 10? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. thanks for that mate Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. well i m trying to learn n effort is there too but no such friend
  19. but i have read many posts here people asking where to get gen parts and most replied contact the rolex or breitling or an AD but they will b very expensive. If you say gen parts can be found online but no guaranty they will be gen right? so whats the affordable way for some one who is just an end user and know nothing about how to check if parts are legit or gen?

  20. hi i might sound foolish but i would like to know how to change date on pam 187?
  21. and when we are talking about parts apart from movement which brand is expensive and hard to find like bracelets, glasses, dials etc Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. Hi I would like to know what is most expensive part in an automatic watch? Also from Rolex, Breitling, Omega, Tag and pam whichs gen parts are cheaper?
  23. ok great read thanks for pointing that out, I will come back to the main purpose of thread that I think chrono watches are more pron to go dead than non chrono, now in connection to that as I cant find any TD offering a rep chrono watch with a swiss movement I thought its because they cant find any used swiss movements in just ok working order or even not good enough to repair and put them in rep watches? that made me think more that if non chrono reps a better choice, I am just explaining what I thought. I understand what you guys are trying to tell me, So I will definitely buy a rep chrono soon
  24. PeteM thanks for spending time on replying in detail but sorry i still dont get it why the rep factories cant put used swiss chrono movements in rep chrono watches. i think it will take same process, amount of time and money may be to do that. even if they have to repair or replace parts on swiss chrono movement like they do on non chrono, i dont see the point why cant they do that.

  25. PeteM what about no swiss movements offered in rep chrono watches they are always asian. why? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
