  4. Reps sure teach a lot of lessons

    With all the stuff that you have learned here you know more than most gen owners. It makes for good cover as well. If someone is inclined to doubt you, you have the resources to shut them down. You can compare the AP royal oak to the IWC Ingenieur and actually know what you're talking about. You can drop names like Sub, Seadweller, etc. and actually visualize the differences.

    very true. there's no way i'd have any idea about gens if it weren't for (old and new) RWG.

    Hey All! A few days ago, I asked members which watch in their rep collection was the closet to the gen---right out of the box---no modifications. Especially given the recent posts about new reps getting better and better with no need for mods, I thought you might be interested in the responses. Here's the list:

    Omega Seamaster (Old version)

    Rolex Yachtmaster

    Pan 2B (Josh)

    EL V2 1950

    AP JA

    Omega Seamaster Pro (lots of votes!)

    Omega GMT (Andrew)

    Explorer 2

    FM Conquistador

    What do you think? Comments? Additions???

    All the best---

    excellent! i'd put the FM on the top of the list though.

    edit: what about IWC GST chrono? one big bad [censored]!

    To have Tourbillons come out in replicas is astounding..and a testament to the

    ability of our rep manufacturers to produce top quality complications for us to

    enjoy, and I would say, should change some of our prejudices about Asian movements.

    it'S hard to me to tell from pictures which watches have a "true" tourbillion. any hints?

    i guess from the price that this one is true.... i don't think anyone would believe that there are fakes with working tourbi...

  17. Where to get a TAG Monaco rep?

    Also, does anyone know if there's a Monaco rep. with Swiss movement, not the Asian 7750?

    Thanks!

    Great forum by the way!

    many here would kill for a monaco with asian 7750 ;) (well, at least if it fits the case, no idea bout that. the venus maybe?)

    ttk had blue and black monacos. there's no rep with swiss movement though

  21. Which watch for the missus...?

    I have been on this website long enough to know that you guys would be locking yourselves in your offices, getting out the vaseline and toilet roll if i posted a pic of her on here.

    You want a sexy one of me instead though? :p

    i'd get rich if i invented a device to test the sexual orientation of someone through the net.

    lacking such a thingy, i'd be prudent upping my rather private images to annoy.
