swedishomega Posted July 11, 2010 Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 Hello! I still haven't quite made up my mind on which rep to buy! I am really enjoying the choices though but it's difficult to finally buy one. I like the pepsi-bezel GMT Master 2. So much that this will actually be my first ever rep! I have looked at all the trusted-dealers on this site and they all seem to sell the same watch, well in appearences? But I have noticed that one dealer is selling the watch but the movement in the picture doesn't match all the other dealers? All say it is a genuine ETA? Please can someone identify the movement in this picture, http://www.kingshowbox.com/goods.php?id=1152 and compare it to thise picture http://www.1-pc8838.com/rlgs10009-retro-edition-master-bluered-pepsi-bezel-p-3493.html I am not saying it isn't an ETA, just want to double check with experts. Thanks so much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tribal Posted July 11, 2010 Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 Looks like the older refinished Eta 2836-2... I had the same movement is the past installed in a Sub.... and it was a genuine one.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swedishomega Posted July 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 Thanks! But can I be sure the other ones are genuine ETA? Or is buying the older one a better purchase? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
www_watch Posted July 11, 2010 Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 @ swedishomega You did realize I assume, that even apart from the differences regarding the movement, those two watches you picked out are completely different? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prdubis Posted July 11, 2010 Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 Thanks! But can I be sure the other ones are genuine ETA? Or is buying the older one a better purchase? Hmm...I fear the pic hasn't been updated and shot a long time ago....Not sure you will get this movement if you order it now... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swedishomega Posted July 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 I did not notice any differences between these two watches!!! Which is the better one to buy in you're opinion? I'm starting to prefer the gold-movement version... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
www_watch Posted July 11, 2010 Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 Lookswise I'd definitely prefer the one from Perfect Clones. It has lug holes, nicer CGs, and seems to come without the laser-etched crown on the crystal. Just because I prefer the older style... well.. that's my opinion. Apart from that: Don't know what the others say, but IMO the CGs on King's look way off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtanak Posted July 11, 2010 Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 Whatever version Josh has, i'm sure King and all the rest have as well. Just get photos of the watch you want and send it to a dealer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swedishomega Posted July 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 I don't understand what do you mean with the crownguards being off? They look the same? Or very close to being same! My main question is which one of these watches (or other dealers offerings) resembles the genuine GMT Master 2 Pepsi. Josh also has a slightly cheaper one - http://www.1-pc8838.com/rlgs10003-master-bluered-bezel-pepsi-swiss-28362-p-2516.html I think this may be the same as Kings? Thanks so much!

flex Posted July 11, 2010 Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 The one that King offers is based on a noob submairner case (with an asian movement). I think Josh's is a 16610 sub (with ETA). BK uses noob with ETA..... please note that while noob case has better case profile, you can't find a replacement aftermarket crystal that does not have the etched Rolex Crown at 6'o clock...

Star69 Posted July 13, 2010 Report Share Posted July 13, 2010 both are horrible there are nicer reps out there - check out the GMT IIc much better .... cheers, Frank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
