This H-f 360 looks very nice, who has that version? Thanks..

Amazing!!!

Super Rep, that looks really good.

Yeah it looks like it is a pretty good deal. One thing I noticed that on the one you have the tip of the CG lever looks really nice, but on DSN's picture it looks all weird, curved way too much and pointing away from the case. I never bought anything from him before but I would hope he sends over decent QC pics?

That 288 looks really nice!!

With the exterior accuracy of today's best reps, you definitely get even more then 90%. I always send my watches to service to The Zigmeister.

As everyone said already, yes it is definitely worth it. One thing that nobody has mentioned here and I wrote about it many times (you can see my past posts) is that if you plan on keeping that rep for a long time, you will need to service the movement, preferably right away, so definitely factor this into your entire cost of the piece. So for instance total cost for 111 Noob would be in the low $400's. And it is very well worth it. And if you ever decide to buy a gen, don't ever buy a new one, Find a good deal on a mint pre-owned piece.

What don't you like about CG on the 390? I know it is not perfect but as long as the lever is tight and also locks tightly against the crown which mine does, nothing really bothers me about it. Even factoring the cost of service that is also much less then you'd spend on servicing gen, which I had done on the movement, this is i an excellent piece that makes spending money on a ridiculously!!!! overpriced!!!! gen probably one of the silliest things anyone could do.

Haha, me too. Plus that gives Panerai another excuse to raise prices that are already insanely retarded.

Mickey Padge, That looks awesome. I take back what I said before. His pics are crap, but yours prove that actually looks pretty cool.

That looks amazing, great pictures too Klockis, they show it off really well. This is going to make me get one!! ha..

Thanks for that picture, that looks really awesome!!

Hehe.. that should be pretty cool. I actually have the 390. So what I was really thinking was 367 face, PVD case that would possibly be 360, not sure what case back, but definitely a solid one. And the movement I would swap with one of the spare Swiss 6497's that I have. I could of course just get 360 but I don't like the face of the 360. But I really like the 367 and it would be a bit different then 390.

He is releasing some cool models, but they are so inaccurate and badly made from what I can see. Years and years behind Noob and H Factories. It's a bummer.

I would love to see the pictures once you have it. I was thinking of doing that as well.

I get 54 hours from Swiss low beat and 51 hours from Asian high beat. But normally I pretty much always wind every morning, which is recommended. You should not let 6497 run completely dry all the time.

That's pretty cool, thanks for the updated info.

Looks really nice.

And best thing to do and actually recommended is to wind it every morning.

They both looks nice. You would have to compare the pictures to genuine to see which one you like better.

Read this thread: You will find many good recommendations.

A proper service of the rep needs complete disassembly to the last tiniest part then parts clean up in ultrasonic cleaning tank, parts inspection afterwards, needs to be oiled with best Swiss lubricants, adjustment, testing, and more testing and more testing, etc.

That 390 is amazing, does not get much better then that. I got it as well, looks super nice.

That looks pretty awesome. Good idea to DLC that model.

100% with you on it. I have some reps that date back to 2005 ad 2006. Serviced by The Zigmeister, and they run like a dream, all with swiss movements. He has not seen any issues with them at all at the time of servicing. I recently sent him a brand new 390 and that movement had bunch of issues that The Zigmeister skillfully fixed. Visually it is such a stunning rep so spending extra money to assure it runs for years and years is sooooo worth it. Definitely seems like current movements in reps are not nearly as good as what they used to be, these are of course all Asian movements. I'm nicely surprised though to see few pieces with new Sellita SW200-1 movements, although not Pam's.
