Sturb Posted April 29, 2008 Report Share Posted April 29, 2008 (edited) Hi All, I am now looking to get a cheap quartz rep (this hobby is getting expensive) and have been looking at the Carrera. I have found this rep on CQOut Carrera quartz I know the strap doesn't look too good but I can get it with the rubber strap. I am not very well up on my Tags so I thought I would let you guys rip this one apart to give me more of a clue I have bought a watch from Tony before so I am not worried about the dealer. I would be grateful to hear what you all think. Thanks Paul Edited April 29, 2008 by Sturb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7Taylor Posted April 29, 2008 Report Share Posted April 29, 2008 Paul, there is a dealer "UK Watches" on RG selling this watch...and the best part is that he is asking ppl to make him an offer on the watch. You might pick up a bargain here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

musicale Posted April 29, 2008 Report Share Posted April 29, 2008 It's not a super rep by any stretch of the imagination, subdial issues, inaccurate tachymetre bezel, thick hour markers, case shape, dial printing... I know you're looking for a cheap quartz, but if you like this watch I'd really recommend an auto. There are some really nice quartz reps out there, the Tag Heuer Golf for example.

I do prefer the auto but obviously without laying out $250 plus I would only be left with faux chronos. I do intend to buy the 7750 in time but I think this might make a nice stop gap. Thanks for pointing out the issues with the watch, exactly the advice I was looking for. Thanks Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
