just to clarify, I was considering a Genuine Seamaster not a seamaster rep!

Thanks,

J

I know this may be a superbly dumb question to many of you but since it has a direct effect on my wallet here it goes!

I am considering buyimg a everyday work watch and obviously I like Rolex thats why I spend a lot of time reading the Rolex postings, I have come to desire a BK YM, I have about $1500.00 American hard earned dollars to buy a watch and I am heavily debating between a used Omega Seamaster and as I have mentioned the WM9 YM, i have heard many a PRAISE" of the YM and its build quality, the question is which one should I buy? one is a replica the other a genuine, All though I have been a RWG member since 07 I am a novice in the watch arena, i will happily accept any thoughts on this issue and criticism too!

Thanks

Thanks!

Does any one know what the waiting time is if contacting BK for a WM V3 Sub? I made it to the waiting list yesterday but I wonder how long it takes to have it made.

Thanks

Thank's guys for the clarification!

I have my marbles confused!

Is the BK WMA V3 the same as a BK WMA LV? I saw a post with a topic comparing the both, I was under the impression that they are the same watch, if not PLEASE someone explain.

Thanks

Thanks for the feedback !

Friends,

I am not an expert like some regulars on this forum, and my respect to all of you, I have been a member on the sidelines since about 3 years ago, the reason I am posting this short question is because I have always wondered how is the build quality of some of these watches like for example a Submariner V3 by WM9 that is soon to be released? although these watches will never be like the Genuine Article but is the build and quality comparable to say a OMEGA SEAMASTER?, which is far less expensive than a Rollie? I have read many times that these watches in particular the Sub from WM9 or BK are very close to genuine so your input or thought are welcome!.

Thanks

Thanks for all the help!

I am very interested in diving into a GMT II Ceramic from PT, my only concern is the color of the numbers on the Bezel, I have seen complaints here from other members as the color being a gray rather than white, my question is, has this issue been resolved? are the current one sold closer to the color on the gen or is it still gray? and last, is it hard to replace with a gen or aftermarket that matches closer to the gen? I would appreciate advise from members.

Brian, pleaseee post some pics when you receive your GMT, I would love to see how it looks, thanks for the info.

Guys,

I'm about to dive in on a GMT 2 Ceramic, after extensive research in the forum, and Bytor,s review, I have decided to go with PT GMT, as I have read from Bytor review, does anyone else have another version, upgrade or anything of that sort that has happened recently or is this my best choice? Thought are appreciated.

Thanks

Wow! Thanks for all the feedback, the pics are great and the watch is beautiful, never mind the 9k for the gem, this watch looks awesome, thanks again guys.

I need advice, I am thinking about diving into WM9 YM for his listed price of $625.00, I know that a rep will never compare in quality to a Genuine specially when this model cost well over $9K new, my concern is if paying the asking price of $625.00 will give me a decent quality on this model watch? how is the Bezel of the WM9 compared to the gen? puting the mechanism aside, is the build quality for this rep good? or is it visibly very different compared to the genuine? advise will be highly appreciated before spending my really hard earned dollars on this rep, also is there a review on this rep on the forum?

many many thanks!

I love the Rolex Explorer 1655 Steve Mqueen model, does any rep make this model? if so is the rep good?

I had asked for a member to recommend a good dealer for a GMT Masters ceramic, By-Tor was kind enough to direct me to his awesome review of the GMT Masters that he wrote back in the summer of 2008, I have decided to order from PT as he seems to have a good track record, my question is, even though the watch reviewed in 08 seems formidable, has there been any changes made to the GMT or corrections since last summer that are worth mentioning? I would like to have any feedback by members, I cant wait to place my order and make any mods if needed, I have heard it is good enough out of the box as it is.

Kind Regards.

Collector

How can I get a hold of BK?

Thanks By-Tor for your reply.

Hello all you great members, I have been a member of this forum for almost 2 years now and have finally made the plunge on buying my first rep! after carefully and many many months of reading all the fine reviews I have finally ordered a Sub from WM9 V2, I know I will be happy as most of the members on this board have been happy with the mentioned selection, I am sure that I will be interested in mods etc once I receive the watch, I NEED SOME HELP THOUGH, I really want to buy a GMT Masters II Rep now but I have not been able to find a good review as to who makes the best rep now like I have able to find with the WM9 Sub, can anyone direct me to a good review or dealer to find my second rep, I will highly appreciate it.

Thanks
