projectologist Posted January 28, 2013 Report Posted January 28, 2013 Smooth sweep, accurate and stays wound forever
mt666tm Posted January 28, 2013 Report Posted January 28, 2013 I'll get in on this These really are amazing!
mch2112 Posted January 28, 2013 Report Posted January 28, 2013 So it looks like a real rotor, not just a sticker on a stock rotor, is this right?

mt666tm Posted January 28, 2013 Report Posted January 28, 2013 Is that a rep strap mt ? Nope, its a Gen grey composite strap

txcollector Posted January 30, 2013 Report Posted January 30, 2013 as good as they look they are not even in the ball park of the gen 1
mch2112 Posted January 30, 2013 Report Posted January 30, 2013 as good as they look they are not even in the ball park of the gen Cheaper though.
projectologist Posted January 30, 2013 Author Report Posted January 30, 2013 as good as they look they are not even in the ball park of the gen Well duuuhhhh....
Watchmeister Posted January 30, 2013 Report Posted January 30, 2013 Obviously not gen spec but the rotor is a noticeable improvement.
projectologist Posted January 30, 2013 Author Report Posted January 30, 2013 (edited) Obviously not gen spec but the rotor is a noticeable improvement. Agree and unfortunately there are no movement plates big enough with room to be engraved/finished per gen But oh that dial and date... So nice on the wrist Edited January 30, 2013 by projectologist
asciwhite Posted January 30, 2013 Report Posted January 30, 2013 As long as I can have an aproximation on my wrist for $450 I am satisfied with the quality of this rep... If I had the money I am not sure I would splurge on a gen one..... But you never know...
txcollector Posted January 30, 2013 Report Posted January 30, 2013 Obviously not gen spec but the rotor is a noticeable improvement. I wonder why they went for relief on the Patek symbol vs the engraved that appears on the gen. I'd think the engraving would be easier to pull off.

I'd think the engraving would be easier to pull off. Much easier to make a die and stamp out the insignias as opposed to setting up each rotor one at a time and turn the milling or engraving machine loose on it. Just glue on the insignia and done.
