chrono903 Posted December 25, 2006 Report Share Posted December 25, 2006 I really like these watches but 500 bucks? c'mon. I understand it is a 1:1 copy, but am I the only one who thinks this price is too steep? Thom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajoesmith Posted December 25, 2006 Report Share Posted December 25, 2006 Yes im the same Its too high for an Asian 7750 Rep. But give it time and the price will come down as they say: "Good things comes to those who wait" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devedander Posted December 25, 2006 Report Share Posted December 25, 2006 Well low funds are forcing me to wait for now, but hopefully other things to look foward too will be the different versions and I am still holding a little hope they will make the metal/rubber bracelet.

mossanti Posted December 25, 2006 Report Share Posted December 25, 2006 its not only you...everyone in the rep..will think that this is very expensive for that asian movement ..damnnn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rangers158 Posted December 25, 2006 Report Share Posted December 25, 2006 This is just the usual commercial practice. Since there is high demand initially, just milk the early adopters, just like technology. In time, with new models and improved versions, the price will drop. The makers will probably not just make 100 watches and stop. They will probably make thousands to cover their cost and make a decent profit. Soon they will realise that not many are bitting and they will lower the price to sell off their stock... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By-Tor Posted December 25, 2006 Report Share Posted December 25, 2006 That's a huge price. But if it's a limited edition rep with more expensive parts... why not? MBW 1680 red Sub generally sells for around $400 with standard ETA movement, although it's much less accurate than most modern day replicas. I haven't seen those prices coming down after all these years... 500 bucks is too much for ANY rep (for me personally). But if the rep is awesome and has some extraordinary features... I don't have anything against the idea of dealers charging for more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
