Best Rep Rolex in Your Opinion and Why?

The best replica watches are made one at a time by 'modders', not purchased from dealers etc.

For example, I have a 15200 that I got from a former member in Canada that he put together using:

A 'like new' complete genuine 15200 case.

Genuine dial.

Genuine hands (modified).

Genuine date wheel.

New old stock Eta 12892 (chronometer grade, c/o a few years back).

I added a black croc strap, oem spec springbars, and steel replica buckle.

 

Who was it?

Hint...too bad he is Stil not around.

 

No one can tell it is a replica/Frankenstein because it is all genuine on the outside.

You can tell it is not 100% genuine by the direction the crown has to be turned to advance the time...and you can hear the ball bearings in the winding rotor.

So what's the catch?

It cost about $700 to make.

 

Imho...

For 'custom made replicas'...TC and WM9.

For 'store bought' replicas...some of the better DJ and no date Explorers.

Yea I am ok with the $700 price tag and have actually started to collect gen pieces. The real issue is that I am not watch compitent at all at this point, so I already contacted BK and might be sending some parts his way to help with the build.

Please how can i contact the BK for rolex gen pieces ?
