I believe the search for 'the ultimate' ultimately pushes the prices of reps through the roof.......no argueing the fact that quality comes with a price. The demand for expensive (>US$300/watch) reps must be there for factories and dealers to keep producing and selling new and better quality reps, earning a healthy living for themselves. Better quality reps are so easily available particularly in large parts of Asia where they are sold openly that unless you live in a mansion and is driving a German margue, an expensive branded watch on any wrist is automatically branded a rep. It seems now...it's fake unless proven otherwise. It does not matter how good it looks or how close to the gens..........most would not be able to tell a fake from a gen. So why spend beyond $200 for a fake. I belive if one is going for the best quality reps and willing to spend mucho dollares then it should not be to fool another that it's a gen, as a cheaper gen would do that job. It should be for personal gratification. Perhaps to be able wear a super expensive watch which realistically U would not want to spend on a gen. Just my thoughts.....

Too late to get the FM Conquistador ETA2892....so thinking of getting the FM Casablanca ETA2892 from Andrew at over $300. Got a few questions which I hope you guys could help me with.....there aren't much info on the casablancas (non 18K solid gold version) 1. Is the casablanca as good a replica as the conquistador? 2. Is the quality of the different casablanca reps the same, movement aside? 3. Better in Leather or SS? Would appreciate some input. Cheers

Very beautiful watch...luv it but I am going to wait till a rep with double AR are made. How much does the original cost?

BTW I share the same passion for SG and LFC!!!! You Never Walk Alone

Beautiful...Rugged.....PLS REP THIS! How much does the original cost?

I have been reading good reviews about Narikaa but the pics on his website are not quite up to the mark and does make the watches looks 'cheap'. Are his watches comparable to the other dealers in terms of quality?

Planning to get my lady friend a rep..... The choice is either a Cartier Roadster (Quartz) or Rolex Pearlmaster Datejust ETA. Can anyone offer an opinion? Which is closer to the original?

Would the FM Swiss ETA2824 rep in leather strap rather than SS bracelet make it a better rep overall? The ETA2892 is no longer available.......

Thanks Eskielvt, will look at those watches at Andrew's and Ruby's site........

Plan to get my girlfriend a lady rolex rep but there is little info on lady Rolex reps so far. Which are the descent reps that are available with our trusted dealers??? I know that it is considered 'and in thing' for women to wear male watches, particularly the Daytona but I doubt my girlfriend would wear them........ Can any of you guys help me out?

Guys, so which face color is the more accurate to the gen?...White or black?

Darned, I was going to go for the blue! Thought it is the best of three and the reviews on the watch is on the blue faced ones.......is the difference from the gen obvious?????

Thank you for the comparison, pics are worth a thousand words. The difference in price here is 2x ETA2824(Silix) for 1x ETA2892(Andrew) but the difference in the quality of the movement, face and strap should just make it worthwhile. I'd rather have a few 'very good' reps than twice as many 'good' reps. :

Phew, that seems pretty UNANIMOUS! SOSF it is then. Thanks guys..............

Truly beautiful Mr Kruzer,........ Does anyone know if the Conquistador ETA2892 being offerred by trusty's website is truly ETA2892? Does the difference in the Conquistador ETA2824 (Silix at $150) and the Trusty's ETA2892 at $300 plus so significant that it's worth the price diff (movement aside)?
