lhooq Posted June 23, 2011 Report Posted June 23, 2011 Looks good, after I do all the color correction in my head. Josh REALLY needs a better camera.
krpster Posted June 23, 2011 Report Posted June 23, 2011 Not bad. Agree with LHOOQ though. His shots always look very soap opera like.....not that I watch those
Ronin Posted June 23, 2011 Report Posted June 23, 2011 Not for me. I said it before, but that thing looks more like something out of a Seiko design studio than Rolex. Lazy Rolex designers: "Lets just make it Maxi and throw in a Retro Hand -- Balance be damned". Kudos's however to Josh and company for doing a good replica...
Virgil Hilts Posted June 23, 2011 Report Posted June 23, 2011 Nice for a first pass, but bezel font is off and WAY too thin. Hands not particularly close either. Crown guards look too massive. I'm actually thinking about getting a gen of this, but the price is semi-stupid. Can't wait to see one in person. They're gonna sell a lot of these. Gens and reps.
cgn1017 Posted June 23, 2011 Report Posted June 23, 2011 If they improve on this "prototype" I'll def get one... bezel font totally off and those cg's are killing me! The crown on the gen sticks beyond the cg's slightly unlike the old exp II. Hope they can realize this!
wat44 Posted June 23, 2011 Report Posted June 23, 2011 getting the vintage orange back was a great move by rolex
chefcook Posted June 23, 2011 Report Posted June 23, 2011 If it would have a reliable correct hand stack movement with gen like GMT function I'd buy one in a heartbeat.
marsupilami Posted June 23, 2011 Report Posted June 23, 2011 they should call it explorer III . Anyway I don´t like any of the new rolex models.
dbutlerman Posted June 23, 2011 Report Posted June 23, 2011 It's actually pretty bad, unfortunately. If you compare the Gen pictures from Basel and the pics from Josh's site, the rep bezel is waaaaaaay off, wrong fonts, wrong spacing, Gen hands are more the the LV hands and on the Rep they are thin, looks like standard rolex hands. If they fix those two things (and the crown/guards)...it would be pretty nice...and they sell a ton of 'em
