World Traveller Posted October 10, 2007 Report Posted October 10, 2007 I just saw this rep is now available. Here are a shot of the genuine to wet your appetite along with the rep.
anton Posted October 10, 2007 Report Posted October 10, 2007 Rep looks good! Looks like it'll be in my hands soon... Anyone smell a ROO was used as inspiration? Biggest headline on Josh's site: "MADE WITH GENUINE AS SAMPLE" And, I believe it's spelled as "Riviera", not "Riveria"
Rolexman Posted October 10, 2007 Report Posted October 10, 2007 (edited) Again, waisted time and energy on a rep nobody is craving for..... Edited October 10, 2007 by Rolexman
Rxus Posted October 10, 2007 Report Posted October 10, 2007 I guess they are busy looking for more ways to squeeze 300+ dollar A7750 watches at us. Personally I would prefer they fix issues with current models and convert them to super-rep status. or release models that poeple are seriously looking to buy. Like realiable and/or ultimate versions of the watches that most poeple purchase or have purchased. Few would miss out on the chance to purchase a super accurate Sub, or SD...Or how about a reliable Daytona..Maybe a Roo with running seconds at 12?
DuDro Posted October 10, 2007 Report Posted October 10, 2007 I've always liked Baume & Mercier...I own a gen Malibu and Formula S Chrono... Personally, I like the Riviera Chrono...Check out the versions that I prefer below:
World Traveller Posted October 10, 2007 Author Report Posted October 10, 2007 Yes I agree those versions are better designs, too bad they were not repped.
geo1nah2a Posted October 10, 2007 Report Posted October 10, 2007 This is a nice version. The rest of them remind me of various other watches (AP, Breit, Tag namely). This, I would buy.
SAS Posted October 10, 2007 Report Posted October 10, 2007 I went to have a glance at a gen one this afternoon cause i was seduced by the rep... i'm in reverse mode. I have to say that I'm not dying to have a gen, it looks like a very common watch (Festina.....) so I'll not buy a rep ! but the acuracy is really great !
AMK000 Posted October 11, 2007 Report Posted October 11, 2007 They were supposed to get out the IWC Aqua , isnt'it ????
MADRED7 Posted October 11, 2007 Report Posted October 11, 2007 I like the watch.....but the design looks stolen (the designer might be an Offshore fan ) further more I cannot understand why a 43mm watch is called XXL???? At least I second the words above....why the hell do the manufactorers concentrate on such a model when there are dozens of "We wanna have" watches out there (better AP ROO...and the new 48mm line, cheaper HBB with more variety in mat black/grey/gold....IWC BP.....) Just my 0.02$.....I look out for Xmas. Theo
robertk Posted October 11, 2007 Report Posted October 11, 2007 I suspect the other models that Dupro showed (thanks, they are much better looking) will be available shortly. Isn't that usually the case, once they've gotten over the initial copying hurdle?
