hey guys, I've finally joined the club after owning a rep for about a year now and recently wanted to know more about movements and watches in general and this has been a great source of help  :)

To start off, my first rep was a Rolex Explorer II but the date wheels has stop working and I can only manually change dates now (doesn't tick over to the next day at 12.) It was a cheap rep and I have completely stopped wearing it and will sell it on to get anther Rolex, probably a Platinum Daytona (love the blue dial)
After that was my AP ROO Diver from noob which is what got me back into reps and "super reps". I love how close these are the the gens (back doesn't really bother me, it's mostly just the watch face and how accurate it is. I have since worn my AP often and still love it to this day  :D
Yesterday I got my 3rd rep which was a Panerai PAM 299 "O" from noob. It is also a "super rep" and I love it!!! I also purchased a brown leather strap for it and i love how easy it is to change straps!  :D
 

I am now looking for my next rep, at first I wanted the PP Nautilus but still tossing up between that or a nice dress watch, something more classic. I've had a look but it's hard to find a good rep. If anyone can shed some light on which "classic" style watches are "super reps" that would be great. I'm looking for something like a A Lange & Sohne or Patek style classic watch. Something minimal though and nothing too complicated. Something like this A-Lange-and-Sohne-1815.jpg

with the smaller seconds dial would be exactly what I'm looking for. or even something with a date wheel, but one of the ones that has all the numbers on the dial and a hand just points at the date (i don't know what to call this, something like this Patek-5270-watch-8.jpg


If anyone knows of any super rep's of either this watch or something similar and could point me in the right diirection that would be great!  :) 

Thank you for your time, and here are a few pics of my watches  :)

Welcome to the forum. Better start saving. Things get expensive!!

Yes, indeed. You may have to sell the BM and buy a Daewoo just to feed the habit! Anyway, welcome and enjoy your stay.

With three arms brother, you can finally change the straps on the AP ROOs without much trouble. 

I am considering getting a bionic implant just for that purpose... :lol:

Have you thought about a Rolex Cellini?

Narikaa and FatPanda (watchfinder) at the other RWG have some very good and quite inexpensive ones.
