paullyjay Posted August 6, 2019 Report Share Posted August 6, 2019 Hi Guys, I've been lurking round here for quite a while now, I've owned a few Rolex and Panerai replicas... But now I'd like to get an AP - I recently bought a 41mm didun design 'homage' in rose gold for bling and fun, but I've come to really like the look, and it's the first watch that has relegated my gen Tudor to the safe for any length of time for the last couple of years... So, I'm after a black dialled Royal Oak in SS, either 39mm or 41mm I'm not looking for a 1:1 perfect copy, just one that is good quality, can be used as a daily basher but also has sapphire and good lume... I hope you guys can help... Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paullyjay Posted August 7, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2019 Hi All, Sorry - I should have been more specific, I was hoping to get some advice about the options for a (preferably) 39mm or (possibly) 41mm Royal Oak in SS with black dial, I don't have unlimited budget for this, so I'm looking for your experience with different versions - I know that the JF 15400 is widely regarded as the best all rounder, but I was wondering the following: 1. What's the best alternative 39mm to the JF? 2. Are there any good 15202's or Jumbo's you could recommend? 3. Is anyone making a good 15500 yet? Thanks in advance!

Champsy Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 Stick with the jf15400 I believe that is still the closest you will get and you can always have it modded by the@legend to make it closer to gen spec.

The latest model is pretty good as far as I have seen & read so would maybe just need silencing and thining depending what you are happy with but @legend will be able to answer you a lot more accurately and also do the mods for you if you was polite enough when messaging him. Welcome aboard anyway, the journey begins... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd just like to see what others have done ..... appreciate your response..... sounds crazy, but I spend more time on this than anything else !!!!!
