I've had three 7750's fail on me, and Joshua has replaced two of them so far. With Paul, he didn't reply to any of my emails when I received a rusty Yachtmaster.
Impressive! After how long from purchace did they fail? Have heard other complains and horror stories about Paul but my dealings with him have been good so far, 6 reps so far in 4 different shipments spread in almost 2 years now. But lately I read more and more good reviews for him and for the prices he sells you cannot blame people feeling the itch.

paul. that movement will fail in time. you can use $100 difference to buy another one. honestly, it's the same watch anyway.
I also agree with bklm1234, it's a freaking rep that is gonna fail sooner or later, buy 2 from Paul with the money. And since when a dealer offers after sale service on an asian 7750 or on any movement for that matter. If it arrives DOA both will replace it , if it stops after a week both will replace it, if it breaks after 4 months is anybody going to replace the watch or put a new movement in it for free?
Anybody here believes so?
I would say try your luck with Paul (you are already trying your luck with the daytona itself )
-
Paul's ETA or choose your dealer as they say. But only ETA and not asian 21J if you dont want another paperweight. I have Paul's with eta and one of the first noobmariners of TTK with asian. ETA ...I repeat.....get ETA.

I got the So called ultimate SUB and the LV in ETA when he offered them as a crazy sale for 100$ each shipped. Got them but the black one had an uneven crystal and a slight imperfection on the SEL. Send it back he shipped back a perfect one. Very happy with them, the black one is my daily beater. Since then I bought a perfect pam087 for 179$ and I have on the way a ultimate omega PO for a friend. Paul delivers.
Happy Xmas!
Which of Paul`s ETA did you buy?Thx
-
That dialogue is just hilarious!!! Comedy at its best....thanks guys ;D
"this sucks... remember on Christmas getting that toy you really wanted only to find out you have no batteries and the store are all closed today?
dildo?
santa?"
To come back to the subject I will take delivery any moment now since my ING from Jay is here but I wasn;t home to accept it and the idiotic postman didn't even leave me a note,,,,I checked the tracking on the web that's how I know...
Will update you on the dial and band status as soon as I have it in my hands..
Cheers

Whatever you get get the ETA one...the chinese 21J sucks big time....as most chinese autos do unfortunately in my experience. I actually own both the TTK chinese and Paul's ETA. Guess which one of the 2 is still ticking?
-
That's what could happen when a dealer is drop shipping.
I think you should contact EL at once.
Of course you should contact him. It was clearly specified in the conditions of the group buy that each watch would be hand inspected to avoid this. This is a major issue IMHO. Contact your dealer and also Richard Tracy and keep us posted on the situ.
Cheers

Congrats on the watch nguyendd. Although I can still see the dreaded white chip on the dial at the 05 minutes position and a bit elsewhere.....werent we supposed to have each watch inspected to avoid this????
What's the deal here?
-
I would like to be in if I may!
Eddie please confirm.
I'm in Belgium and never had a problem with customs.
-
Can we have an update on the situ?
When do we paypal the monies....?
Richard if you could also update the list in the first page with all the names and the instructiuons and latest price it would be great. Thanks again for this exciting group buy.
Cheers

Just fantastic!
How much was the damage?
-
Quick and dirty list:
Nr. 1 hint : Rehaut (not deep enough?)
Nr. 2 hint : Crystal (does not have a high enough lip from the bezel?)
Nr. 3 hint : Dial (not enough strong print clear letters?)
Nr. 4 hint : Crown (too big? not sharp enough?)
Nr. 5 hint : Laser etched crown @6 (visible by naked eye?)
Nr. 6 hint : Bezel edge (Sharp?)
If you answer YES,YES,YES,YES,YES,YES you have seen a replica and a bad one at that...
For me the quickest hint to know if somebody is wearing a rep Sub is to check the rehaut which is always visible at most angles.....never failed before...
(from 1 meter the latest "ultimate" subs do have enough rehaut to pass as gen like..) Checked it last evening with a friend who weras a gen pre93 sub and me my TTK asian latest sub.

The ad reads: Professional refinished, Black dial colour with index and sharpe red Submariner logo , it is good for replace and repair your rolex ref. 1680 Submariner watch use.
Various other of his items seem legit....
Well I've got a lot to learn about vintages
Thanks for the comments.

Yes they do! The one on the rep is of course a bit bigger and more visible but stilll you have to know where to look to see it on the newere version subs like Andrew's.
Cheers

It's the best value for money wear-without-mods-to-impress-your-friends kinda Sub. The one that Precious, Andrew, TTk, Luckyyy and lately Aspire sell in asian or ETA. It's definately a keeper or try to mix parts with an TW best or MBW to have the absolute top modern Sub rep.
Enjoy it, we waited a long time to get something like that and so affordable.
Cheers!

Anybody said blue screws?
-
Watch is being returned to the dealer for a fix. Thanks for the help guys
Cheers

It's asian unitas. Dealer answered that he checked it and it was working before shipping. I don't know how this could have happened.
There seems to be a sharp bend at the spring more obvious on the 2nd picture.
Anybody knows any watch repair guy in Brussels Belgium that is rep friendly...or should I just send it back for an exchange.
