Look what came in today.....

Hello everybody,

Today a guy came in the shop and he looked at my watch and he said : I'm selling them"", I took a good look at it and decided to buy one.

Took some pictures of both, look at the difference but also the quality of the replica.

Most significant differences :

Rehaut on the rep is not 90 degrees on the dial

Bezel is slight different, just a few degrees

Different markings on the clasp

Crown on clasp sharper on the rep

Real good feel and weight

What do you guys think ?

Thankx Jack

Very nice watch, but it does have a few notable errors (wrong date font, etched (instead of engraved) markings, index marker at 12, mediocre fit & finish, etc) that most modern reps have.

It looks really nice If you don't mind me asking, what did it cost?

That's about the going price for the lower end reps, so you certainly didn't get ripped off Flaw aside, it looks nice

The case looks spot on. Wider lugs just like the modern gen. Datejusts have always been some of the most accurate reps even in the lower end.
