  1. Welcome to the community, Rolex parts prices have gone up a lot, but it is certainly possible and these are the guys that know
  2. That is gorgeous, never mind the lovely watches in it. Mind telling us where you got it please?
  3. Well you asked which is “the best 1:1 Rolex Submariner replica in the market today”, hence pointing out that 1:1 does not exist. Now we are closing in on details instead of a vague question. However the problem remains the same. There is no consensus on which is the best 116610LN, each version has it’s strengths and it’s faults, which are well documented. So it returns to YOUR opinion and what faults YOU can live with. The only person that knows you well enough to answer that is you. Some truly obsessed people mix and match parts and even fit genuine parts to chase the last details. Of those you have named it is unlikely that any of them will be a huge disappointment Sometimes it is more straightforward, for five digit Subs, JF is the clear winner of those models now available. Though even there it is not a clear and undisputed winner over the long gone TC Sub Unfortunately it exactly the same story with dealers, people have preferences, sometimes very strong ones and over time one tends to build a relationship with a dealer, but there isn’t much agreement on which is best, other than sticking to trusted dealers
  4. Perhaps do some reading and answer the question for yourself. It is the only way you will end up with what is best for you. As a start, Trusted Dealers are listed in the Dealers section and there is no such thing as 1:1 or AAAAA+, that is BS as you will understand if you spend a few evenings reading the forum
  5. I feel for you Minty. While out this morning with the dogs, a vicious wild animal nearly ran us down. By the time I got my ‘phone out he was sat a way down the lane, looking kind of menacing
  6. Solid information, gained the hard way and shared freely ❤️
  7. Bloody hell, you have made my evening. Welcome back Sir
  8. I’m not really the best qualified to advise you, but I would want to hook it up to a proper timing machine and see that the basics are there. Amplitude and beat error. I know if those things are stuffed, no amount of moving the go faster lever will bring joy
  9. Welcome to the community, there are already quite a few cheeseheads here😁 We are small, but I would put our knowledge base against anyone’s. Please feel welcome to start a thread documenting your build and I am sure you will get lots of useful tips and help
  10. Thanks for doing that, it figures. Seems I’m not quite as senile as they make out
  11. It runs in my mind that they are long gone, and if they were in business still it seems we would be hearing about them in threads. Would be interesting for one of you ‘Mericans to give them a call, but I will be surprised if you get any joy (and delighted of course)
  12. I’ve sent a brief message Rick, no promises, but fingers crossed
  13. I can’t give that out, but I guess I can forward a message or ask him to contact you
  14. Minty! You are my spirit animal ❤️
  15. Well if there is so much stuff you still don’t know, I may as well give up and go watch Netflix
  16. Good lord! I can’t decide which is worst, but I am very surprised the last watch doesn’t say Invicta on the dial whats this “when we restock” line Minty? It’s so long since the lounge was restocked that Kernow and I have actually got to like lighter fluid and angostura bitters. It’s the only thing that’s left
  17. The really great thing about the forums is so that you can read and draw your own conclusions on which version suits you best. For a number of reasons that decision varies from person to person If you just want a simple and uncontroversial answer without any effort on your part, then I would agree with my friend. R factory is head and shoulders above all others
  18. Like everything else, the more you learn, the more you realise you don’t know
  19. Doc, I’m sorry to hear of the cancer and hope you make a good recovery, do let me know I’m not sure, but I will look later and see if I have a spare set of springbars
  20. If it were that simple guys would have done it many years ago. I spent twenty odd years in industrial robotics for big pharma. Multinationals like standard production, and to all intents and purposes it usually is. However if one really knows and looks at the product and package one can always tell which machine and therefore which production line in which factory the particular product or packaging was produced on Those dials are awesome, but you and I know there are plenty of guys can tell them apart I actually wouldn’t want something made that nobody could ever tell from real, there are enough scammers as it is and that is not what this hobby is about, neither is it something our members have any time for
  21. My cheap Submariner looks fantastic in the dark. Even the lume is none existent just like a forty year old genuine one. Best $15 I ever spent I love it so much I put a genuine Swiss movement in it and a genuine Japanese battery 🤪 like i said, sometimes you need to spend a lot of money to get what you want and sometimes something cheap is fun. The really funny thing is friends and family can’t tell the $15 the DHGate at $120, the JF at $400 or the genuine one apart
