Starting a new 5500 project and I have acquired a gen 5500 case and gen 78350 Bracelet with 557 ends (In MINT condition). So far have about $1100 sunk into this project. Would you guys go ahead and get the gen movement for $1000-1500 or stick with the ETA?

I'm interested in people’s opinions on what type of reps they buy? I only buy reps of gen watches that cost below $10k. I would feel a bit funny wearing a rep that costs more than about 1/6 of the value of the car I drive. I guess my reason for this is this is that I think people might view me as a fool, if they thought I was spending $100k on a watch, but could tell from knowing my line of work that that is a large percentage of my annual take home pay. I often see secretaries at work who buy very expensive handbags, and my view of them is that their personal finances are out of control. A member posted a while ago a few photos of an acquaintance’s watch collection, which the acquaintance claimed to be 100% gen. He pointed out that the guy lived in a small apartment and had an average car and average job. Members pointed out that many of the watches in the collection were clearly reps. I am not saying my opinion is correct. It is just how I feel. I imagine many people equally feel that the public does not know if a watch is expensive or not, and they want to wear the best looking watch they can get. Let me know what you think?
