  1. Okay Gents, I'm looking for real world experience from people that have purchased this watch. Either the 3789 or 3799. Which model did you buy? How long have you had it? Who'd you buy it from? Is it still ticking, keeping time, looking good? I'm especially interested in hearing back from anyone that paid up for the swiss movement watch. Thanks in advance for sharing, I don't have enough info to judge the durability of the rep. I have a 3714 with the asian 29J 7750 that has given me trouble and is need of repair so I'm hoping to avoid that type of issue again.
  2. Hey guys. I just ordered my first rep the other day from Andrew and I'm looking for as many gen parts to upgrade when it arrives. Could any of you tell me what size strap I would need and where I could get a gen or as close to get alligator strap? I also am looking for gen crown and tube. Any other recommendations would be great also. Thanks in advance !
  3. A question for the experts: What is the difference between Chrono V1, V2, and the Doppel aside from the different movements? They range in price from the low 3's to the 8's on Trusty's and I'm curious which version is considered the most accurate and most reliable of the available movements. Appreciate the advice!
  4. Hi all, I just got the package with the IW3799 in the mail today- excited, of course, as all of you have already experienced Upon opening and inspecting, all "cosmetic" aspects were more (better) than expected. However, the chronograph seems to have a problem. It starts/stops wonderfully, however, when trying to reset- it won't budge (that is, the chronograph seconds hand). Only after trying multiple times, of course not forcefully, but with different amounts of pressure, does the second hand indeed reset. It also sometimes jumps backwards a few "seconds" on the dial when resetting, as if it were stuck and/or the pusher does not quite contact to the appropriate parts. I am not one of the experts in respect to rep. (asian) movements, and so, I really need the help of those of you out there that are. Has anyone seen this "phenomenon"? Is it simply a case of poor movement oiling, or is this a real hardware problem? The chrono is resetted at the moment, will it prove fatal if I use it again? On another note, if this is something that can be only solved with a completely new movement, is there a possibility that I use the A7750 Valjoux movement on a rep. PAM Chrono and simply switch movements? (seeing as there is no "hours" chromo sundial on the Pam- I hope I assume correctly that the function is just not displayed on the dial). Thanks a lot for your help!
  5. Hey Guys, I'm new to the hobby and just made my first online purchase from Andrew at Trusty. I got the more expensive IWC 3799 that is supposed to be 1:1 and all parts interchangeable with the real deal. I'm looking forward to receiving it, and have already been chomping at the bit to buy genuine straps. Any of you had one or know of some of the other mods I could do with this? Where could I find authentic parts also? Thanks !!
  6. Hello everyone, While I was surfing the RWG forum I saw a lot of beautifull watches. Unfortunately I couldnt find anything about the Big Pilot Top Gun 5019. I can find the watch on the sites from the TD's, but does anyone have some hands on experience? I really wonder how good the rep is. Thanks!
  7. Hi, I'm thinking of getting a Top Gun Chrono (not the split-chrono version), but since Im new to the reps, Im torn between the choice of a V1 and a V2. I'm not one of the movement connoisseurs, but I know that the 7750 is a pretty reliable chrono movement. However since the V1 and V2 options that I am considering both have the 7750, could anyone advise me on what those terms mean and which one I should go for? Thanks for your help! J
  8. Hello all, I search for my IWC 3789 a GEN dial & hands. In advance thank you. David.
