concepta Posted August 7, 2009 Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 Guys! Now when wearing my DSSD so much i truly miss my old GMTC The TT model has grown on me..especially after seen one genuine closeup. I know that the GMTC with real ceramic bezel is quit a good rep! But how about the TT? What are the biggest tells? (Besides not being real golden surface) What can be fixed/modded? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverG Posted August 7, 2009 Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 One of my favorite watches, looking to soon hopefully add this to my collection.. In my opinion, the bracelet can be swapped out with a good two tone aftermarket on the bay, using the same clasp. The same goes for the crown. One thing that really bugs me on this rep, is the god awful rehaut. I have a few gen rolexes - all with engraved rehaut, and trust me when I say this - the gmtiic's rehaut is horrible. It's painted, not engraved, and its not even symmetrical. The font is off too. Besides the rehaut, it seems to be an outstanding rep that i'll soon add one day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
By-Tor Posted August 7, 2009 Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 Stay away from this rep. Besides the eternal problem with replica gold bracelets this watch has golden/yellow dial print, which ain't accurate at all. Genuine has the print in white. Go for the best stainless version, you'll be much happier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slickdick Posted August 7, 2009 Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 Another thing to note about the new GMT is the non-AR'ed cyclops. Both on the TT aswel as the SS version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
concepta Posted August 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2009 Josh seems to have a updated version with correct lettering: Would you go for a 18K aftermarket bracelet and swap the clasp? Like this: My link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobyc Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 has anyone got the one from Josh above? I really like this and would like a half decent rep of it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
By-Tor Posted August 17, 2009 Report Share Posted August 17, 2009 It all depends how the plating/wrapping quality is. Impossible to determine that from the pics. The Noob TT Submariner 16613 (that I have reviewed here came in 3 different gold qualities. The one I reviewed was the best one and the bracelet was very well made. This rep comes from the same factory so I guess they can make it in different gold quality as well. Could be different between Asian/ETA versions. The point is: Nobody knows (except you when you receive the watch). Cheap TT rep bracelets are horrible but the best ones are ok. Good luck!
