quicktime Posted December 6, 2009 Report Share Posted December 6, 2009 I'm getting ready to purchase my first rep as a Christmas present to myself. I like a big watch with solid construction and some quality components, i.e. saphire crystal, good movement, solid link bracelet. Can you make some recommendations on the reputable dealers and some of the highest quality reps to consider. Thanks for the guidance.

Corgi Posted December 6, 2009 Report Share Posted December 6, 2009 Narikaa is a great dealer choice - I'm sure he can get you a high quality rep. He's the best in my opinion. There are many kinds available. Are you looking for a specific brand? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quicktime Posted December 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 I like the Brietling Steel Fish because of the ETA option, I also like Omega, and Tag but was unsure of the Asian 7750 quality. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lanikai Posted December 7, 2009 Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 A7750's are very good .. "if" they are serviced properly.. I have had good fortune with A7750's, it depends on the makers of different reps...imo.. Omega SOSF, UPO (both have eta versions .. the speedy's are very well repped Tag.. Aquaracer fo sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jchurch Posted December 7, 2009 Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 I like the Brietling Steel Fish because of the ETA option, I also like Omega, and Tag but was unsure of the Asian 7750 quality. Thanks. I love my SteelFish... It was my first rep purchase but the same day I bought it off a user at TRC I bought a Graham chronofighter oversize. Since the guy with the graham was local I meet up and picked up the Graham chronofighter and because of the quality of the graham I was really excited each day hoping for the steelfish to arrive. Once it did I wasn't disapointed lol. Only disapointment the breitling has given me was just recently. with the "tube" (think thats what its called) came unscrewed from the case causing me lots of worry. I have screwed it back in and it seems ok now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lanikai Posted December 7, 2009 Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 You need to find a dealer that can deliver parts as well as the whole watch.. it's the reason I stick with my dealer.. holla if you need any pics on a model I may have them.. from my collection.. forgot to mention one of the best outta the box.. Omega SMP chrono.. a must have.. I'll post some pics of this one.. give me a sec.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lanikai Posted December 7, 2009 Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 It'll take a bit to find my pics of my SMP chrono.. but the Breitling Blacksteel is a must have.. the DLC is identical to the genuine.. this one has been relumed and a eta 7750 dropped in..
