Don't know who the one with hat is... But I wouldn't like to be in his position surrounded but those others
-
Oh I know it's bad. It was very cheap. I'm only curious that's all. I can open it up and have a look at it. Plus I never would have joined the forum if I hadn't of bought this watch ha
That one may well be not even made of steel (it can be brass plated).
When you will get your 1st high end rep believe me you will feel such a difference that it will be amazing

Thanks for the reply. I have only been checking prices of sites that I have found on here that other members have recommended.
Perfect clones have one with for 148 USD. With an asain 2813 movement
Which is a lot less expensive than the noob factory reps. Is it worth paying the extra? I don't think it would personally bother me if the only difference is the bezel
To me it is worth.
The 2813 movements feel "cheap" to me when operating it with the crown.
Also they are 21600 beats per hour. The Eta (and Asian eta clones) beats at 28800 BPH, which is the same as gen Rolex movement.
See the difference in the second hand sweep here:

If you want a very good ceramic bezel sub just get the V6S from Noob factory (and get it from one of our trusted dealer, NEVER from a random site you find with Google) with Asian 2836 movement.
Also the older V5 or V6 (not s) are great.
If you prefer the older not ceramic version, the best around are thr Thomas Caddell (TC) realizations.
Differences between ceramic (right one) and non ceramic (left one) bezel:

Best option unless you go for a real new (not the crappy Swiss BP factory puts in their reps) Swiss one.
It is the Chinese clone of a Swiss Eta movement. It even accepts gen ETA spare parts.

Happy labor day!

Asian 2834 (eventually Asian 2824)
Sorry, Asian 2836. Not 2834.

I think it will be more proficient to get a new one. SWF ones (and ZF, but for this model SWF are better) now use a new movement which has jeweled sec@6 so no more graphite and stuttering hand.

Trusty on Rwg.bz is asking for comments on these new dials they are going to be produced.
Stay tuned!

So this may be a silly question but where can i get my hands on one of these versions you stipped down ?
Cheers

Buu the watch (IWC 5001 or 5007 with real power reserve from ZF) and you will have one.

LOL I had a picture of myself running around with a feather duster trying to clean a mansion! But that is over we have plenty of very capable guys to get the job done and we will!!
I want to imagine you this way:
Even tho I think this is nearer to reality...

Thanks Mike! I am sure you'll be able, all together, to clean that .it of dust that has covered rwg in the last 2 years! Good luck:)

Agree with this statement.
Proposition: what about a thread in which you can collect ideas and/or proposals (maybe accessible from vips only, or from people with a decent post count) that you may later on evaluate within the management group?

I ordered it thinking he was the TD TC, I am awaiting my QC pics as we speak. I found out he wasn't the real deal after I sent my money in. I will wait it out and hope for the best. I will post the pics QC pics here and hope for the best. If I don't like it I will not accept it. Hopefully I can get my money back. Live and learn...
TC stands for Thomas Caddel (no secret as reported also at his blog).
Who is Tony Cheng? Le he is this guy: www.7750asian.com then do now worry, he is a TD, also if not here but on two forum.
Otherwise... Uhmmm...

May someone confirm/deny if the Sub-C and the ceramic GMT2 both use the same DWO?
I mean in terms of fonts / size / position or, in other words, if I have a good DW with his nice overlay for a SubC, will it fit centered and well in a GMT2 ceramic (in my case both are from Noob Factory and both with a2836)?
Thanks, GenTLe

Ah, new rotors. Do not forget to clean off the grease!
Yep, disks and pads, front and rear
I degreased them

This afternoon, watch for heavy jobs, replacing the brakes to my car:

In other words, if your watch has a 2824 then swap it with a 2842.
Rolexes use the 2846 because they generally come from the factory with 2836.
The difference is the stem height.
Just bought a nice Ingenieur Chrono :)

Eheheh this was the other one I was watching of the sale... Luckily I didn't get it as I have a 19.5cm wrist...
Instead I got the rep of this, and in the very 1st post he did (the one that was nuked due to high value sale not yet approved):
I already had one in the past and I loved it regardless the "Emirares" on the case back, but it lasted few days as a pinion of the minute counter snapped and I got a refund after like 1 year from the TD.
About your question: sorry but I don't know... It is a rare watch so not easy to find spares...
