rip Posted June 4, 2009 Report Posted June 4, 2009 Hi everybody! Got a marvelous question for you, i recently bought a Omega SMP Chrono from watcheden. But it wasn't as described, so i got a chance to send it back and pick another watch. And ive been looking through the sites a million times, and found some candidates. http://www.watcheden.com/omega-speedmaster...-17825-p-1.html This speedmaster date, which it not the same as the 7750(!). I really like omegas! http://www.watcheden.com/tag-heuer-formula...-20978-p-1.html And this F1 watch, I don't like it that much. But as everybody here I get annoyed by flaws(etched when should be engraved, crappy bracelets etc), I know about the quartz thing, but I need to have a quartz for blowing [censored] up on time. So what I'm looking for is a watch that has a quartz movement, has a good look and feel to it and comes from Watcheden! Anyone got som tips? hehe

chrgod Posted June 4, 2009 Report Posted June 4, 2009 Actually the Rado and Movado watches from Watcheden are not bad. Interesting choices if you want an unusual replica. I bought a Rado for my girlfriend.
m4rcus Posted June 5, 2009 Report Posted June 5, 2009 I have the previous generation Tag F1 Chrono. I don't know if it was from Trusty or elsewhere since I got it from the trade section. Anyway, I put a gen bracelet on it and it looks great. I don't think anyone would like it was a rep. It isn't perfect but close enough for me. Here is a pic from Trusty for reference:
rip Posted June 5, 2009 Author Report Posted June 5, 2009 I went for the Tag, the Omega wasn't the same as the 7750, it just worked the same way So hopefully this one will be much better then the seamaster i got
trailboss Posted June 7, 2009 Report Posted June 7, 2009 Good choice. That Tag is one of the best of the quartz for shure. Nice watch, enjoy. You get to blow crap up? Luck bugger! Col.
rip Posted June 7, 2009 Author Report Posted June 7, 2009 Yeah, now I just have to send the omega back Chrgod: Your PM-inbox is full!
P_Diddy Posted June 7, 2009 Report Posted June 7, 2009 (edited) roughly how much does a gen bracelet cost? I have the previous generation Tag F1 Chrono. I don't know if it was from Trusty or elsewhere since I got it from the trade section. Anyway, I put a gen bracelet on it and it looks great. I don't think anyone would like it was a rep.

m4rcus Posted June 7, 2009 Report Posted June 7, 2009 roughly how much does a gen bracelet cost? I had bought a rubber F1 strap off ebay for $135 for my gen F1 non-chrono....so I already had the bracelet to move over to the rep F1 chrono. A quick look over at the bay has a bracelet for $200 - $300. Way over priced in my opinion. You can pick up a gen F1 non-chrono (watch and all) for around $350 at timezone.
Wayward Posted June 8, 2009 Report Posted June 8, 2009 The F1 from Trusty is superb...I have the gen and it really is 1:1
