I tried the GEN on at the AD for a second time. Ahhh...the unusual feel of a Rolex with some significant weight. Being a bit shy of the $10k asking, I ordered the "Swiss" REP from a Perfect dealer and then began reading the threads regarding the DSSD.

Can anyone tell me what the differences between the Versions (V1 - V3) are? I know that the GMTII Ceramic went through similar generations (and much comparison) but I havent heard or seen much comparison of the DSSD versions.

Does anyone known who is selling what version?

Would anyone be so kind as to educate me in this regard? Thanks!

Welcome...and Enjoy!

Thanks Lani for the Great Review. Impressive all around. Simply amazing.

I owe it to you that I ordered this piece. After trying on the GEN at the local AD, I am pumped more than ever for its arrival.

Just was curious when we will begin to see new offerings from our Collectors reflecting the changes shown at Basel 2008 -- Whether or not we like them.

Any thoughts?

I would love to see a good Day Date II with the appropriate SELs and textured dials.

Im trying to get a bad timepiece back to china for replacement, any suggestions - USPS, UPS, DHL, etc.

PM me. Thanks.

I am interested in assembling the "Ultimate" Modern TT Sub Frankenwatch.

In preparation for doing so, I have already acquired a Gen Dial and Insert.

Now, what case do the experts here recommend? Do I order a straight Stainless MBW (knowing that I need to purchase an 18kt bezel and crown?) or the TT MBW?

Any source for a good 14 or 18kt bracelet would be appreciated.

Thanks for the assistance!!!

Beautiful photos of a handsome watch. Wear it well.

I enforce Intellectual Property for Rolex.....just kidding.

Great thread!

Darn, Saw this Post a couple days too late...

After much thought I pulled the trigger and purchased the Nautilus from TTK. It is simply amazing! While admittedly not 100% perfect...who cares? I can wear it and those who don't know what a PP is admire it and those who do know what a PP is are in awe. Beneath the cuff of a Charvet shirt who is going to question whether or not it has a seconds hand???

Thanks TTK.

Just wondering if anyone had a source for good quality "Aftermarket" bezels to replace the ones currently put on the Reps.

I have tried the Bay and have only found some really questionable looking pieces. Any help would be good.

Corgi is just upset because neither the Canadians or the French have made a car worth looking at in 20 years.

Can anyone say Peugeot???

Congratulations Pugwash. Look forward to the excellent advice and photos. Your hard work is always appreciated.

i guess that would take a true patek nerd.

Hey, there are none of those around here is there???

As a yachtsman myself, I appreciate the functionality. However, the form it takes in the Yachtmaster II is enough to cause one to be seasick on dry land.

Neil,

I saw a Rose Gold Gen at Tourneau a few weeks ago. Simply stunning! When is the Rep going to be available? Please lets put a nice ETA movement in it!!!

I was fortunate enough to purchase a RO a few months ago. Now that I have a GEN I am searching to round out my Genta collection with a few Reps. Ideally, I would like to purchase the MBK/MBW Nautilus Jumbo (blue dial) but am finding them difficult to source. Any collectors or members that can be of assistance?

Thanks for the interesting analysis of this gorgeous timepiece.

Just a quick note to say "Hello" and greetings! I am a long time collector, new member here at RWG. It is nice to see some familiar names from other fora. I look forward to learning and sharing with you all.
