lhooq Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 Some time ago, there were discussions here and on VRF about the emergence of fake 7836 bracelets. They looked good, fooled many people (out of hundreds of dollars, unfortunately), but never showed up on the mainstream rep markets. Last week I checked in on Honpo's site and saw that they carried a very nice 7836 for a reasonable JPY 9000. At that price, I'd buy a handful! Do any of our known dealers carry this rep bracelet? Or, as with so many other items on the Honpo site, will I have to sit tight until I've made a new pen pal in Japan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alligoat Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 Nice find LH. Hopefully some of the other dealers will start carrying it soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanuq Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 WOW!!! It can't be long until a 9315 comes out. Waiting with bated breath... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddy333 Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 I would bet both bracelets have been available for some time. It only takes the right inquiry placed with the right seller to open the floodgates (has anyone asked Yuki to source them). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanuq Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 Unfortunately, yes. Remember when we asked for a non-expanding 7206 and he had to sell out his exandros before he would bring 'em in? I also asked for 9315s and he was pretty noncommittal. But it doesn't hurt to ask again. Yo! Yuki! Help me out here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redwatch Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 Great find!!! It looks really good! Of course, it would need a standard Nanuq Vintagizing! It looks way too pretty right now as it is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanuq Posted June 17, 2010 Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 I got an email back from Yuki this evening and he can't get these or the 9315. "Yet" ... hopefully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lhooq Posted June 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 Mary from Watch International said she looked around the Guangzhou markets, but didn't spot any bracelets like them. Oh well, there's always the ones I can get for $600 and up on eBay! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gplracer Posted June 18, 2010 Report Share Posted June 18, 2010 Can anyone get these? What about from this site? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
