cwai02 Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 (edited) lol, nothing's right on these reps though. Good for those who need a new movement. http://www.aspire-eshop.com/advanced_searc...mp;x=9&y=16 Edited June 27, 2006 by cwai02 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Sql_pl Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 It is not so good. The 111 is fitted with wrong dial of first generation of 111H reps. The 127 has RXW case. The 217 has incorrect movement as it should have cotes de geneve finish. 210 - same as above about 217. Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
that_watch_guy Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 When you see hacked up prices, keep in mind that you often get what you paid for, as mentioned above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwai02 Posted June 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 (edited) btw, there is also a 183 if anyone cares. http://www.aspire-eshop.com/product_info.p...roducts_id=1182 wrong movement for H series though.

Bignasty Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 yeah I was about to say what is "the RXW style case" all about? Wouldn't that mean wrong bezel and wrong crystal too? I just got TWG's Superlumed 127 deal and I'm still confident in my purchase. Its not hear yet, just shipped a day or so ago. I'll post pics when I get it. These crazy sales are great though. I was quoted more than this amount for just the movement a few weeks ago from another dealer. Cheers, Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwai02 Posted June 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 I am thinking to get the watch just for the movement. I want to upgrade my asian 183. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bignasty Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 I am thinking to get the watch just for the movement. I want to upgrade my asian 183. 111 is supposed to have the other swan neck movement isn't it? I mean if you check out Pam's official site it has the H series movement. If I still had my Asian fiddy I'd do it for the upgrade though. Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocket754 Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 good hell that is cheap. All the other dealers are selling the swan neck movement alone for over 200 bucks. Get the watch and part it out is what I say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supermanx Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 If you need the movement, this gives you a good head start on a custom vintage project. I would almost get one for the movement and case if I thought the 217 was really saphire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leitztozeiss Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 Well, at least the 111H has a nice thick crown - not the anemic flimsy looking thing on the $380 versions out there! At that price though, I think the 'flaws' are easily overlooked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shasta Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 good hell that is cheap. All the other dealers are selling the swan neck movement alone for over 200 bucks. Get the watch and part it out is what I say. ......or Buy 2 Aspire Pams, both with the wrong movements, then do a mov't swap You can start with W-1686 127 5th edition which has the 1:1 casing and the Geneva mov't - $229 Then get 1 of the $189 pieces (217, 111H, 183H) and....the result is 2 'perfect' reps for what some other dealers charge for 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craytonic Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 but its a *CRAZY SALE* haha I may get a 127 for the movement; if my good one has issues with the crystal... now I have a replacement! Also decent way to get a 183 in my watch box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocket754 Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 Paul need to post pictures of the complete movement. We have to make sure that he is not selling the version with blue screws in the movement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocket754 Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 The blue screwed movement was a prototype supposedly! Jon So they should be correct now? I hope that is the case cause I see Josh selling the awsome fiddy with that movement. http://perfect-clones.com/product_info.php...roducts_id=1140 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dadog13 Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 even if those reps have a lot of flaws....remember : there isn't a flawless rep....and for that price it is a steal! I should stop looking at the offers...first saw today the 187 from EL...now this...I am going bankrupt! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kanerich Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 I don't need any of these watches, my wife bought me this BEAUT for my birthday. I know it's not quite perfect but I'm happy with it, that's all that counts. After all, who cares how "accurate" a rep is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chronus Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 His ad doesnt say Swiss or ETA anywhere does it? Maybe it's the new Chinese Unitas with working swan neck ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kasigi Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 These two pictures are both shown against the same watch, the 127. One has more blue screws than the other. So how can they both be of the same movement? Something a bit fishy there methinks. (btw, which is right?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highflyingclive Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 The manufacturer ran short of plain screws... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
