Legend Posted January 9, 2014 Report Share Posted January 9, 2014 To expand on that with an A7750 if it goes bad half the modders/watchsmithes want nothing to do with them. I have a bad one now it will be looked at but that's because of past relationship and that is just to get it looked at. If it needs a complete fix/parts etc it goes in the bin. mate if you have an ROO you do not want, sell it to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The subdial hands color are obviously wrong, and hope they correct it before production I think for the baton marker lengths, it would be good,because the rep pic is shown without the tachy ring.. after the ring is put in place, the length would be much closer, though it would still be wider. As for the logo, yes this is a flaw shared with many ROO rep models.. but this is good enough for me for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully version 2 will be released or does ''best edition'' means 1 version only? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Z Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 yep it looking like a making of a great rep ....but im sure there will be updates .. or even a v2 to fix what could have been corrected in the first edition !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrononna Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 Thank you kindly, did he mention that on another forum please? I know that for the ROO GP forged carbon, the rep CGs were given a satin grey finish as opposed to the correct microblasted finish. I had to do the mediablasting myself. yeah, read it on another forum at RG, lol... hope you don't have to do the microblasted by yourself this time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreamer Posted January 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 Is this basically the same watch just not FC http://pureti.me/product/pre-order-royal-oak-offshore-44mm-dlc-noob-11-best-edition-a7750/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The case is DLC stainless steel instead of FC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legend Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 Hmm. Which replica looks better to you, legend ? Like you, I think the Chanel factory(?) FC one looks very good. If you notice, there are very slight differences between the FC one and DLC one in the date window placement and subdial positions, or maybe thats just me. We already ordered the FC one, and to me, its no regrets. I am waiting for the RG one though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreamer Posted January 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 What's the RG one? Excuse my ignorance. New here and trying to learn the ropes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legend Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 What's the RG one? Excuse my ignorance. New here and trying to learn the ropes. oops sorry.. RG = rose gold. I think there are three or four models in this series: forged carbon, stainless steel (white dial), rose gold, and I think there is a ceramic one (same as the forged carbon one except its ceramic) I am keen on the forged carbon one and rose gold one.

Dreamer Posted January 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 Oh I'm in the same boat. I love the fc which is why I purchased it and I don't have any RG pieces so id love one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Franky1983 Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 Hi guys, pretty new to this forum but my first impression is very positive. Was looking for a long time for such a brilliant replica - I'm very curious how it will be in reality. Any one who pre ordered received more pictures of it? How do you guys feel about the white one ( I already own a hublot big bang black magic and need a good stainless steel alternative) Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dreamer Posted January 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2014 For those who pre-ordered the FC model, anyone got QC pics yet? Heck no. Probably won't get them for another 2 weeks + Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legend Posted January 24, 2014 Report Share Posted January 24, 2014 I received the Puretime newsletter today, like many of you would have. And they mentioned, without skipping a beat or batting an eyelid, that the orders would be shipped sometime after CNY, thereby blatantly reneging on their website promises that all pre-orders would be shipped before CNY. Thats the rep world for us I guess. Each pre-order lure is a risk we take, and I guess in this case, its a 2-3 week delay for the delivery of a very promising rep. Worth the time I would say, but PT should have made an update and apologies for the guys who pre-ordered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legend Posted January 24, 2014 Report Share Posted January 24, 2014 Something that would've taken merely 5 minutes, would've gone a long way. Well I have ordered the Noob RG version from Connie of Kingwatch instead of PT. Connie would at least state upfront that shipping would be on 10th Feb, and she would send me the payment link on 6th Feb. In my experience, she always delivers true to her word. Just so that you know, PT does not have monopoly as a dealer in this. Soon, other dealers would be making the same offers on their sites. I would say that PT did a very good job on marketing, but performs poorly in the area of customer service at times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legend Posted January 24, 2014 Report Share Posted January 24, 2014 What's the link to that website? www.kingshowbox.com. The 44mm chronos are not listed on the site, but Connie is able to get them for you if you email her. I have been dealing with her for the past 2 years plus and she always keeps her word. Her email: kingsales999@gmail.com. Tell her what you want, and she will respond to you. I am not sure if she can offer the FC model, but she has confirmed that for the SS and RG models from Noob, she CAN deliver them on 10th Feb.
