BP Factory Rolex 16710 GMT w/ Asia 3186 Clone

[Oris 421]

Posting this as I can find no existing information, and I am hoping to find some opinions, or a review from someone who has one!

 

 

From the Trusty Time site:

- ROLGMT113 - GMT II Ref.16710 Pepsi SS/SS Black BP Asia 3186 Mod

 

- BP Factory Top Rolex Ref.16710 GMT with Asia 3186 Clone modified with decorated rotor, bridges/plates

 

- http://www.ttw-138.c...oducts_id=16804

 

 

I'm curious about this GMT from BP factory.

 

- I am sceptical about CHS (though photos show it's not) and decorated movements, but happy to be educated about this 3186 - as far as I know it's just a decorated A2836?

- I know a few people have been waiting for a 16710 rep to become available, so I'd love to know if this is something new, or a re-issue.

- Does anyone have one of these, who can make some observations about the case, dial, bezel, SEL, bracelet, build quality, etc?

- Is anyone familiar with BP reps in general, who can comment about the quality of their GMT offerings in general?

 

* Apologies if noobish or posting in the wrong place.

From what I've read this latest batch of CHS mov'ts are finicky at best. More than a few people have had to send them back for repair it seems. In general, I avoid Rolex clone mov'ts, just stick with a 28xx.....much more reliable. And no one can tell CHS on the wrist...
