Uhrenfreund 0 Posted December 24, 2017 @Khronos @NCRich is right. The watch is the money not worth. Buy an Regtona and you get almost the same watch for a good price. Such watches with faux Function i normally buy only for fun at 1 Dollar at the Gumball Machine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

McGilli 1 Posted December 24, 2017 @Ilovethiscity Nice review thanks for sharing. I have to ask you a question - Do you put anything under your watches/bracelets before putting them down on stone or concrete? I'm just curious. I see this a lot on guitar forums when people just put there guitar on various surfaces to get cool photos and argh! The finish! Scratches - I just can't do that. Haha OCD maybe! Still - thanks for sharing, and I did enjoy the photos. 12 hours ago, tripdog123 said: So because you can't see it, it's not there ? So because only you can see it - it's there?

Just because you can't see something, it doesn't mean it's not there. Just because you don't understand how something works, doesn't mean that it won't work. Take the internal combustion engine for example - you don't need to know how it works for your car to start when you turn the ignition key - it will start anyway. Just because you can't see the difference between 904 steel and 316 steel, doesn't mean there isn't one, it just means you can't see it. Try not to take this too hard, with a little practice you may improve and make progress. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ilovethiscity 0 Posted December 24, 2017 (edited) Hi @McGilli thanks for the kind words and glad you enjoyed the pictures! I’ve just posted up some more pics of my full modded Hulk with gen insert and AP panda too if you’d like to see them of course regarding putting anything down you know what I don’t but I have been terribly lucky so far and never noticed any scratches due to my pics! My little way of living on the edge I suppose haha Edited December 24, 2017 by Ilovethiscity Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I never run a chrono rep or gen. my friend with a gen daytona never runs his chrono. You might not see value in it but most people own trainers that cost more than this watch... stop thread shitting.

Can you get the finish close on 316? Yes, you can. You can get it very close, however, it won’t be the same. First off, the fit and finish on the ARF 904 bracelets is on another level. I haven’t seen any other rep bracelets that come close. Second, the ARF 904 bracelets are harder than 316 and heavier. The hardness is where the difference is, it holds its finish and color much longer than 316 will. Yes, you can get 316 to look exactly like 904, but it wont stay that way for long, and it wont feel like 904 ever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You discuss the Differences between 904L and 316 Steel and the watch has no working chrono. Thats funny. It is the same if i discuss the Paintwork on a Car, but the Car have no engine.

Beauty! @uhrenfreund look at this watch IMO $458 is nothing for the enjoyment one I don’t understand why you are so obsessed with the movement being 1:1 then the choice for you would be Gen or a big fat A7750 version. Simple choice then Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Will I be upset I bought ARF? NO my enjoyment has been received. I barely wear my reps these days anyways. I buy for the enjoyment of the chase, process of buying reps and forum interaction.
