archibald Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 It seems as though more and more folks around here are hankering to expand out top quality rep horizons beyond Rolex and PAM. I suspect, though, that the makers confine themselves primarily to PAMs and Rollies because they know they're going to sell them. since we're probably a fairly accurate sample of high end rep collectors it occurs to me that if we each list a few watches we'd like the best makers to make, a pattern might emerge which may or may not lead to a run of high-end reps different from the usual. Mine: Muller Casablanca Chrono: Asia 7750 will work fine. Omega PO chrono Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Tracy Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 Hey Arch,.. Since my whole goal is Serious Tool Watches i.e. Chronos, Gmts, Divers, Pilot, that pretty much leaves out many lines, besides Rolex, Iwc, Breitling and Panerai, obtaining two, three tops, of each. I did this to help me cure my addiction but now find it the most fascinating way to collect, twelve watches total and I am about done. Would like this however, Snagged the photo from Don's site..

Estaban Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 Casablanca all day. I tried the gen of this watch and it is simply stunning. Massive, clean, and elegant. I also like the Conquistador a lot, and it's available with a spot on movement match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertk Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 Zenith El Primero functioning chrono; Graham Chronofighter functioning chrono; Rolex Tudor Submariner (I have a gen): andy JLC chrono's. Now that IWC's are showing up, what's next? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostfaceZX Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 I'm fine with the current selections, but what I would like is much better accuracy to the gens. I really want the JLC RDM, but the flaws are too big IMO. Ulysses Nardin needs some better reps! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Estaban Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 (edited) Two more: Breitling Aerospace and Breitling Super Avenger with Valjoux 7750. I've always loved the Aerospace and I want something really big. Edited April 20, 2006 by Estaban Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris5264 Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 It is probably impossible to do a rep,,,,but the UN freak would be very nice. I would definately pay 2 or 3 times the normal rep price for one that at least got the basic movement to move even it it wasn't a tourbillon.

Guest overboosted Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 Any decent Lange would make me happy. I dont even care about the back/movement, because they will never acurately reproduce that. But a decent rep where the front and case are spot on would sell pretty well I'd think.
