HauteHippie Posted October 14, 2011 Report Posted October 14, 2011 Spotted a rep APROO on the wrist from approx 15 to 20' in the airport today. Impressed? 1
MADRED7 Posted October 14, 2011 Report Posted October 14, 2011 Woops...eagle-eye....I am trained but cannot spot a rep from that far....but I do assume "rep-or-gen" by looking at the owner! Theo
rosnik Posted October 14, 2011 Report Posted October 14, 2011 Usually when I'm travelling around the world , I use , for safety , only rep.
AsiadeCuba Posted October 15, 2011 Report Posted October 15, 2011 how did you know? crown position? dw?
denisegold Posted October 15, 2011 Report Posted October 15, 2011 how did you know? crown position? dw? At 15' feet it was not the DW!
burnz Posted October 15, 2011 Report Posted October 15, 2011 Maybe coz it was a fantasy model Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
krpster Posted October 15, 2011 Report Posted October 15, 2011 Do tell what you saw chief. Inquiring minds want to know.
HauteHippie Posted October 15, 2011 Author Report Posted October 15, 2011 Dial depth. Noticeably shallower with the gen. Could see it was too deep from a fair distance. The owner confirmed when we got to talking after I gave him a "nice watch!"
asf Posted October 16, 2011 Report Posted October 16, 2011 Pooh great job! I was at a Mercedes dealership when I spotted a rep ROO Volcano. The tell? Seconds @ 6
HPoirot Posted October 17, 2011 Report Posted October 17, 2011 I usually go by thickness of caseback.
HauteHippie Posted October 17, 2011 Author Report Posted October 17, 2011 I usually go by thickness of caseback. On the wrist?
rosnik Posted October 17, 2011 Report Posted October 17, 2011 Pushers and crown aligned are fake, on APROO .
HauteHippie Posted October 17, 2011 Author Report Posted October 17, 2011 Pushers and crown aligned are fake, on APROO . Yes, I know. But try spotting that on a moving wrist from 10' without attracting attention.
rosnik Posted October 18, 2011 Report Posted October 18, 2011 Yes, I know. But try spotting that on a moving wrist from 10' without attracting attention. :)
HPoirot Posted October 18, 2011 Report Posted October 18, 2011 Yup. Spotting the caseback on the wrist is possible. Maybe not at 10 feet, though.
coolwatchdude Posted October 26, 2011 Report Posted October 26, 2011 you shouldve told him to send the watch to you so you could mod it to make it look for gen.
Watchmeister Posted October 26, 2011 Report Posted October 26, 2011 Even if the rehaut is 20-30% to large that is still an impressive call from so far away.
