Guest Sql_pl Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 Just look at this: $18k for 12 ct diamond blinged out gen ROO? Some pics: Not perfect pics but doesn't it look like: - no metal hour numerals outline - DW not sunken enough - crown looks to be in line with chrono pushers? Full listing below: Auction Link If that's rep - it is crazy! EDIT: - YES that is a replica! Just look at DW position against tachy scale! It is too close! So someone really blinged out rep with 12 ct of diamonds! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lanikai Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 all aside .. the workmanship with the settings are very well done.. it actually looks very good for what it is.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sql_pl Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 Yeah, looks great. It is kind of hard to understand a person who puts XXk usd worth of diamonds on a 0.5k usd watch! I wonder if this guy didn't realise it was a replica. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indyberetta Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 It may be a rep, but the workmanship is great. It would be very hard to mount all those diamonds...and just the time involved to do it! The diamonds are not all that expensive in those sizes, so if it is a rep I bet he prob only has $1200+/- in it. That rubber band has to go though...don't look right with all that BLING!

That rubber band has to go though...don't look right with all that BLING! toally agree with the rubber strap !.. the diamonds need verifying though .. CZ come in different grades too... CZ's will loose their colour with time .. but regardless unless this guy is a jeweler (setter) the cost of setting those stones would be costly.. especially given the quality of the settings.. most blinged out watches even the genuine Brietling SA .. dosen't look as well done as this one... both in gem grade and craftsmanship..

lanikai Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 what's bothering me about the diamonds is the clarity and "colourless" grade.. "D-E" colour diamonds regardless of the grade are not cheap.. I don't think this one is the real deal all together.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slickdick Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 It is a rep for shure. The crown position is inline with the pushers, so definitely not sporting the modular 2892 chrono movement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trailboss Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 I detest bling but I like that! Very well done indeed. If the diamonds are the grade stated it ain't bad value, rep or not. Col. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jfreeman420 Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 Ok guys you got me. I need the cash what can I say? Really though, I wish they would rep this with the diamonds. I would buy one in a second. Sweet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
