WTB 1675

Hi guys and gals

 

I’m looking for a 1675 replica/clone/anything

If you have one for sale or if you’ve bought/built one previously, please share your source.

 

My budget is open to what’s out there as I’m new to the scene.

 

I was looking on trusty time and I’m happy to settle for a factory built option but they just aren’t quite perfect. But for the price I can’t complain.

 

Show me what’s out there!

 

I’m in Australia if that makes a difference

I recently built this and a few others.  They vary in many ways. I think most would agree there are 3 general  tiers of building reps and very directional price ranges, YMMV. 

 

1. Beginner Build: Buy a basic cartel watch. Fade the bezel, soften the case and maybe age the dial a bit. $150 to $350 depending on mods or DIY 

 

2. Intermediate build:  Cartel watch as base and then do the above stepsm. In addition, Shape the lugs, Cgs. Age dial, relume both dial and hands. Add better crown and crystal. $150 to $600 ish. 

 

3. Advanced Build:  Get  gen spec case and dial. Do the steps above. Then I see people add gen, crystal and crown.  If you go all the way, one might add gen movement and hands.  $1200+
