Looking for my first IWC 3714

Recommended Posts

Hello everyone,
 
I'm looking for my first IWC, and I love the 3714.
 
I'm still a noob here.
I have 2 watches up to now...A rep of the Tag Heuer Grand Carrera Calibre 17 and a Gen Tag Heuer calibre 1887.
 
And I would like to know if this one 
 
 
is the same than this one
 
 
30 dollars between both. Why ?
 
I've already buy my rep Tag Heuer to Joshua, he gives good communication and QC pictures.
 
What about Tony?
 
Thanks a lot and sorry for my bad english...

I know the problem with the movement issue and already send a message to a watchesmith which is called Domi.
Probably you know him here.
I've read that he can fix it with a new modd and servicing.
Could be a good idea, isn't it ?

It is said that adding jewels on certain (metal-to-metal) points will reduce the total friction, which otherwise (with dirt and tear) will overcome the power of the driving train. Sounds promising and many report good results, but I don't think there are any actual empirical evidences / "proof" yet. If you like the rep, try it! Due to the high variation in build quality, some of these reps work well after a year while many others end up dead within a month (just from what I understood here on the forum).
