  1. Hello everyone!

    Well, i have been lurking around here on RWG for quite some time now, reading and trying to gain at least some knowledge about reps. But now, finally, i guess i´m ready to take the plunge (well, at least for a watch. I have been dealing with the ever so great Ken). But of course, before jumping into it, it is smart to ask some of you more experienced reppers, to make it less likely to make a bad jump. :help:


    So, anyways, i have narrowed it down to wanting a Breitling rep. (i do want a Submariner too, but after reading a lot, BK is the man, and im not ready to start of with something in that price range). Well, so i have gotten it down to a few models of which i like the design, and from what i understand is fairly good reps. The models are;

    Are any of these models good "starter reps", or is there some similar models that i should consider? Which of the two is more recommended?

    Quality is of course important, it is better to have a watch that works and is more off the gen, then having a 98% similar to the gen, paperweight. In that case, i wonder if the chrono-mechanism is more "risky" in terms of long-term using and water "proofing"? (and i know, nothing is really water proof when it comes to replicas, i don´t really trust it when the TDers say it is waterproofed down to 30 meters)


    I also see that most of the specs is quite similar, with one difference; the lume. I know that the lume often isn´t much to brag about, but how big is really the difference here, between the C1 and C3? (I know that the C3 is more "powerfull", but how is this in reality?)
    Another thing, is color, does someone know if any of the dial colors are better reps than the others? I don´t have much preference in colors on these modes, so if anyone knows if one is a better rep, that would really help in choosing one.

    Oh, and i also wonder if it is any use in buying an extra leather strap from the TD when buying the watch? I do want to switch over to a nice leather strap from time to time, but i´m a bit unsure about the quality...

    Thanks for any help/insight anyone can offer. I know it was a long post with a lot of nooby questions, but hopefully with some help i can get out of the noobyness quickly :prop:. Again; Thanks in advance! :notworthy:

  2. This is what happens when the designer of the Ford Explorer goes LR...they take their styling with them.

    I really don´t know if they use Ford designers here, but in real life it actually looks more like a Land Rover/ Range Rover then you would think. My family has allways been "addicted" to Range Rovers, and we currently have all the 3 different generations of the "proper" Rangie. Side by side you can see that they do belong to the same family. And also, as a "second" car this one is perfect for Norway, partly because of the winters/weather, and partly for car prices. This one starts at about $90 000 (Small diesel engine, manual gear and 2x4). The model shown with a proper engine, 4x4, automatic transmision and more equipent is about $150 000. Not bad considering that the REAL Range Rover (TDV8 Vouge) has a asking price of about $260 000 ! :excl::bangin:

  3. evoque.jpg

    The new beauty! Unfortunatly this is not the actual car, but the demo car we are testing. Our car is in order, expected delivery around december, and it looks exactly like the demo, which is a white Range Rover Evoque Dynamic with black interior. :)

    Fantastic car! (if you like the English made cars i guess... We here are crazy about them, and this one is number 4! :euro: )

  4. I've just noticed that my Sub has been dispatched from sorting center in Guangzhou.

    Let's hope it makes a quick journey halfway around the world. :)

    And now it's released from customs in Sweden, so it's so close I can almost smell it. :clap2:

    How did you get you package so fast? My tracking number hasn´t had an update since it left Guangzhou 1 week ago :(

    Also, did you get any updates before it arrived in Sweeden?

    Oh, and Welcome from a "neighbor" in Norway :welcomeani::cold:

  5. Hi Forum!

    I have been lurking around here on the forum for some years (!) now, reading and trying to learn. After a longer "break" from lurking around, i finally decided that it would be a good idea to say hi, and actually get started in the rep-world, and the first step must be to say hello to everyone here! So therefore:

    Hello!

    Or "hei" as we would say in Norway!
