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! :D

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!

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...

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.

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! :)

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...:wounded1:
