Where can I get WM9 v2

Where can I get a WM9 v2?

If anyone could give me some advice on getting the cheapest, best value Rolex Submariner, I would appreciate it very much. Seems like good reps are going for $450-500 but I do not know the cheaper end of the spectrum and more importantly, if they are any good. I plan to wear this watch around everyday (beater) but at the same time, I don't want people to notice it as fake. Thank you so much.

You can't buy a WM9 v2 for $450-500 anymore. Used ones are going for $8-900. There is one for sale at repgeek right now.

I thought I had it bad when i bought mine a year ago for $550. but that was 30 days before wm9 went AWOL. .

Just go for the TW best by BK mate. A lot of the "improvements" in the wm9 are even better on the BK.

I said it once and Ill say it again... the only reason to get a wm9 is to frankenize it to the fullest. A rep wm9 parts imo is not the same quality as the BK TWbest. You get a wm9 for the case construction.

$8-900 ??? uhm, does not convince me to sell my WM9v2 ... nono, and no no

[HartDoc]

I prefer to frankenize a watch. but you need a great base to start with

TW best is a great start for a franken project I have gen insert and crystal coming in then gen tube and crown and how amazing it will look PRICELESS

I cannot agree more

WM9 are hard to get, but when you have put gen crystal / tube / crown / pearl or insert... It's the closer you can get than a gen !

You just have to expect spending something like 1000 EUR for all these things...

[blue_sphere]

No that's the problem. On repgeek these are going for $800-900 COMPLETELY UNMODDED. The sellers are just taking advantage of new members. While the new people should study more, I am really surprised that the administration is letting the inflation go so high.

[Valty]

Yes I know, $800 = 600 EUR these days, and the required mods are costing something like 400 EUR I bet

Note that I paid the premium price here too

[praetor]

you'd be surprised how much people will pay for stuff. Remember LH PAM111 selling for 1k?

[rosnik]

I got here one friend's Wm9 with Gen Insert and Gen Crown for 1020$ on sale..

[blue_sphere]

Its much more than $400 for gen parts, in addition to the work required to replace them all.

Wait a while, than you can get a WM9 V3 with Eta from me

I just build and mod this one, still waiting for some Parts.

Why don't they make a  general sub case at a low orice that will take gen parts. All that reading is a bit to much.

Anything less than that and you'll regret it.
