Want to buy a genuine 76100 dial. U got one, or might know where to get it?

This is a genuine Revue Thommen Quantième moonphase timepiece, my very first serious timepiece which I have procured in the grey market more than a year ago. It had arrived DOA, and after sending it back to the the grey seller and Swiss manufacturer for repairs (the latter being a regrettably costly move), the watch came back still broken! As such, it had sat in my dry cabinet for more than a year while I acquired several other timepieces along the way, mostly genuine and vintage watches. It might have been fitting to have had this review in the proper WUS forum, but I had gotten to know @Legend through the replica forums, and for the edification of the replica community, I decided that this review shall be planted here. I had gotten to know @Legend through another local modder aflop. In our initial casual conversations on our watches, I had mentioned about this broken watch and he had graciously offered to take a look at it. Nothing to lose, I had calculated mentally, when even the manufacturer couldn't fix it for me! To cut the long story short, @Legend took the watch, and fixed it before I could even request an update from him. Sheer insanity. He gave me a rundown of how the watch works (an ETA 2824-2 base movement with a Dubois-Depraz 9310 module, and how intricate a repair it was, given the setup of the watch. He sent me off with a charge that I ought to be extremely delicate with this watch, lest the module and parts break once more under my care this time. I have adjusted the time, day, date, and moonphase over this time back in my care, and all of them work as they should. That is some pretty impressive work by our very own admin and modder in the replica watch communities. I had thrown him a curveball and he has dealt with it with an unmistakable elegance and finesse. Over the course of our continued interactions, @Legend has revealed that he could deal with any repair or mods under the sun. Movement servicing, platinum paint mods and SEL mods (for your subs, DSSDs etc.), waterproofing, datewheel mods (for your 7750 3-6-9 chronos), AR works, just to name a few common ones we in the replica community need. Admittedly, he is not the most humble person, but the important fact is that he could certainly back up his statements with the first class calibre of his work, with me being a direct beneficiary of it. I would highly commend his services and offerings to all without reservations, whether it be for a replica or genuine timepiece. If you're based in Asia, there shouldn't be any reason not to look for him. That said, if you are based on the other side of the world with no reliable local watchsmiths (I'm looking at you, our American friends), it would do you good to consider @Legend to service your timepieces. Thank you once again, Al.

Hello everyone, I am new and I am glad I joined this site. I would like to ask you if someone could help me to find a nice golden Rolex day date in a good quality. I am very exited to get this watch. I have seen very nice qualities here and I am very impressed! I am looking forward to hear from you. Contact me. Thanks. Rob

Just bought a gen one online. The 36mm version. Amazing price. Already own the standard full size (41mm) blue bezel SMP but was wondering what the verdict on mid size watches are? The full size looks good on my wrist, will the 36mm look like I've borrowed my wife's watch? She'll probably end up owning it if it does...

Hi friends, It's been awhile since i've dealt with sourcing parts or trying to mod anything. I'm now feeling like buying a sub or a gmt master rep and mod it with some gen parts. (Used to have a secs@9 daytona two years ago, which I've wanted to mod - already had the gen crown, tube and pushers, eventually ended up selling all of the parts and the watch due to the lack of time) What's the correct tap to use for a gen tube fit for a modern submariner \ gmt-master ? (they both have the same tube if i'm not mistaken ? and I haven't decided yet about which one i'm gonna get and mod) and I'd be glad to know if any member of rwg is selling them, I'd better buy from him than someone else Many thanks! db

I picked this up this afternoon from my AD. I waited a whole month for him to get this watch in. Movement: Calibre L051.1. Manually wound. 55 hours power reserve. Stop seconds. Dial: Solid silver, argenté. Hands: Blued steel. Case: Diameter 40.0 mm. Height 8.9 mm. Sapphire-crystal glass and caseback. Hand-stitched crocodile strap.

Hi Guys, First time poster. I am looking to get a Genuine ROO. Leaning towards the Rubberclad, but also considering this Themes (black dial, steel bezel) A few questions for you guys. Where do you think the best place to buy new or used online. I want to ensure that I am getting a genuine product. And I know its a matter of opinion, but what are your thoughts on the rubber bezel vs. the steel bezel. I love the rubber right now -- but worry its just trendy while the steel might be more timeless. Thanks for the advice!
