Hi guys, it's been some time.

Have bought in the past a frank muller PVC, Chopard 1000 mile watch which was excellent and a early royal oak.

I'm back in the market and considering two watches either:

Royal oak chrono: aap00102-2011-royal-chronograph-rgle-black-a7750-sec12-p-15467

And a Daytona Rolex: 00rldfr10016-2013-rgle-white-stick-a7750-sec6-p-15036 .

I've been away since 2007 so no doubt I've got to catch up but I really would appreciate some guidance and advice. What's people's view on those two above?

I'm looking for a top quality rose gold replica.

IIR you have to have a minimum number of posts once you join before you are allowed to link in your posts. Can't remember the number, but that's likely why it's not working.

 

From the descriptions in the links, you are looking at two watches that will likely have problem movements. The seconds at 6 and seconds at 12 reps have transfer gears in them to move the seconds hand from 9 o'clock position (that the movement was designed for) to the other places on the dial. I personally would not recommend buying either, unless you are prepared to deal with them when they eventually break down.

 

Three posts in six years isn't being much of a member, so don't be surprised if you don't get much more help.

Thanks for reply. My main concern is at this stage will these two be spotted as replicas? Of course if you examine them in detail you will. But say sitting next to me or if you know the gen watch etc.

Good point on the lack of posts etc... But too be honest I bought 3 reps in quick succession and kinda forgot about the rep world, but I'm back now! Hope to contribute

The rg Ap´s (Diver or Chrono) look fantastic and there is the vintage, handwound Paul Newman Daytona in full gold for reliability (as the AP Diver). Good choosing
