Wallet dented - so what reps worth buying below $200

Recommended Posts

So I splashed out on a noob pam111 but yes you guessed it I'm hooked. So the wallet is dented but been looking at what's available below 200 dollars including shipping to the UK

IWC fa jones looks ok, any cheaper Portuguese models worth a bash.

Pam 390 from super mirrors off rwi looks ok but unsure if still available

Omega PO seen some beginners I think they called on trusty and toros any of these worth a punt

Any other suggestions guys welcomed.

Regards

D.

Check out Watch International.

 

They are a TD here and at RWG.bz. On RWG.bz they have a sub forum where they do "cheapies" and I've got a couple from there, Omega Pumpkin 42mm and Omega 007 42mm, both very nice watches and a bargain for the cost.

 

The Pumpkin has stripped the thread on the tube, but that is a common problem with POs, and a new gen crown and tube cost me about £37 and is easy to fit.

Like the transocean is the bracelet adjustable I have 7inch wrist is this doable, I'm also not really a Rolex fan but that looks ok for the money. Breitling looking better though quite like the bracelet on that one over the gmt2

Just ordered the Fa. Jones last week from Supermirrors after reading this fantastic review of 2012 http://www.replica-watch.info/vb/showthread.php?t=94451. He´s got some very well priced PAM´s under $200 as well - all the same except deco on the movement (stated).

I got my PO with a 4813 movement from Trevor last October for less than $200. Despite a bit of a rough patch in the beginning (ie it stopped twice), it's been on my wrist for the last 7 months and despite gaining about a minute or so every week, it hasn't skipped a beat (no pun intended! ;-). I just had it in to a watchsmith and he said it was a really good rep and would be quite difficult to tell the difference from a gen. I also just bought a Noob v3 PAM111 from Trevor and it arrived last week, but unfortunately something has gone wrong with it. Regardless, I brought it into the WS and he said that it too was a fantastic rep and would be extremely difficult to tell from a gen, so Trev's quality is pretty good too.

 

Andrew seems to have a lot of really nice reps for less than $200 as well. Because Trev doesn't have the reps i'm after, I'll probably go through Andrew next.

 

Would be keen to hear how you go with your search!

I got an orange 42mm PO from Trevor a couple of months ago for ~150 with a DG4813 as well.  It's the only one of my three reps that didn't need any work on the movement.  The two eta (one swiss, one asian) movements I had both needed servicing soon after purchase but the 4813 has been perfect the whole time.  It gains a couple seconds per day, which is exactly what I'd like it to do.

Email him via narikaa@gmail.com to enquire about any of the watches.

 

Links in my RWIT tool dude :)

 

He doesn't have a website as such, just a collection of photos of the watches currently in stock.
