Adamftr42 Posted April 12, 2014 Report Posted April 12, 2014 Have SevenFriday's watches been replicated? I'm interested in buying a gen however thought id check if there's any reps so I can 'try before I buy'
martijnp Posted April 12, 2014 Report Posted April 12, 2014 I never saw a replica of a SevenFriday, but I guess it's a complicated watch to replicate. Despite that, it's a stunning watch so if there is a good rep, I'm in for it But the gen is not that expensive..
xpletiv Posted April 13, 2014 Report Posted April 13, 2014 Too new. Too new to tell if there's enough want in order to Rep.
markiemark Posted June 28, 2014 Report Posted June 28, 2014 mehh the gen is not that expensive. might get an M1...
Corgi Posted June 29, 2014 Report Posted June 29, 2014 Too obscure for there to be a rep of that nonsense
gran Posted June 29, 2014 Report Posted June 29, 2014 Great design attempt but as pointed, but out no point in replicating at this point in time, genuine price is just way too low
F.Castro Posted June 29, 2014 Report Posted June 29, 2014 (edited) Im one of the guy's that cant see whats so amazing and great with this watch! They took the world with storm and i have seen many in the flesh, but, i cant understand whats the big fuzz about! To me it onely looks ugly and cheap. Edited June 29, 2014 by F.Castro

zero_deficit Posted July 6, 2014 Report Posted July 6, 2014 These brand seems to have done a homage of the SevenFriday, except with a circular rather than rectangular case http://www.anconwatches.com/models Same movement too, and a little bit cheaper

I have an Ancon M26 Tank Bronze - one of my favorites. The X-35 concept will make a nice companion and just got added to my Wish-list. Thanks for the link. "Such a lovely place....

Legend Posted August 7, 2014 Report Posted August 7, 2014 I will post a detailed review when I get the watch guys.
pam 816 Posted August 11, 2014 Report Posted August 11, 2014 Has it been released by other TD? Puretime postponed their release but Intime says its available.
martijnp Posted August 11, 2014 Report Posted August 11, 2014 I will post a detailed review when I get the watch guys. After a weekend without thinking of watches I just send a mail to place the order mate! You talked me into this one aswell

I first came across the brand in an in-flight shopping magazine, and instantly dismissed it as not interesting or significant in any horological way. Then, I saw a few posts on Internet forums, decided to dig deeper, and still don't really get it. Is it just the aesthetics? If so, that's cool. Not really for me. Also, one of their models (gen) has "Zurich" written somewhere (perhaps it was the chapter ring). Thought this was really deceiving, as movement is Japanese, no other parts are Swiss, and it's made in China/ HK. OK sure, that might be a weird complaint in the context of a rep forum....

Malkovich Posted August 16, 2014 Report Posted August 16, 2014 (edited) Here's a pic of what I mentioned regarding "Zurich" - looks like it's on the dial. Perhaps they're incorporated in Switzerland? Questionable business practice to me either way. Edited August 16, 2014 by Malkovich
Hyjynx Posted August 16, 2014 Report Posted August 16, 2014 (edited) Well, there's a Zurich City in the State of Kansas, USA. Population: 99. Edited August 16, 2014 by Hyjynx
