ProZac Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 (edited) I’m going crazy; I really want an AP ROO now! I have seen the MBW version (http://www.replicacollector.com/members/index.php?showtopic=27845) and it looks very good, the seconds running at doesn’t bother me that much if the rest of watch is superb. Do any of you guys have this version and what do you think. I see that Joshua have a 1080 usd rep, I think 450 Euro are more within my limit. MBW also use the new 7750 version, which is pretty reliable Do you think it is worth the 450 Euro and is George a nice guy?

watcher Posted February 9, 2007 Report Share Posted February 9, 2007 I have the MBW version and it is very good but it did not have the new asia movement inside. It has the older movement but it works just fine and the bonus is that you can swap it for a swiss7750 as the hands are the same size unlike the newer 28800 version.

torresp Posted February 9, 2007 Report Share Posted February 9, 2007 I think that Paul and I are the only guys here who has the mbw version or at least the the only who has the ROO with finepic's relumed hands. Seconds @9 doesn’t bother me too. Go for it mate, it's one of the must have. FYI I don't swap the movement and runs like a champ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicknoh Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 The seconds running at 9 just screams fake to me. I think Joshua's has the more accurate dial, although this is from picture inspection only. It maybe the quality of the mbw's is far higher upon personal inspection.

ProZac Posted February 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 Joshua’s AP ROO with correct dial is like 1088 usd. The mbw is far cheaper (Asian version), although it’s not cheap compared to other reps . Mbw doesn’t use the new Asia 7750 that bothers me a little. You MBW guys, do you have some high def pix to show me? Besides the 9 o’clock issue, are there any obvious flaws one the rep? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchmeister Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 I was curious as to the issues as well. I do love the proper use of dial based cyclops on the more expensive versions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torresp Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 Not great pics, I use my wife's ixus w/o box or adjust but you could see the details. As I told before seconds @ 9 doesn’t bother me, I love the watch due his design, the massive case, the rubber pushers... The feeling of the watch is very very nice, close to the gen (I tried it).
