Hello from the Netherlands

Hi all,

 

I accidentally bought my first ultra cheap (€26 incl. p&p) rep rolex milgauss, found out it was a rep when I opened the package...

The chinese online store I bought it from photoshopped out all the rolex markings (PM me for url if you don't believe me, I don't want to advertise for the guys here). Never knew rolex made this model, just love the design.

Looks decent for a rep, runs smooth too (6tick/s if I'm correct)

 

Regards

I honestly didn't know it was a rep, never even knew rolex made the milgauss. I just wanted a cheap automatic that i can wear while working with powertools in the house :lol:

I have a very nice gen 1967 Omega hand winder, don't want to risk destroying that.

 

If you scroll down here, you can see the milgauss without brandings (sku 91410) V.R.

 

Here is a pic of mine:

Pretty interesting web site. All the dials have the trademarks photoshopped out. Thet look like pretty good prices if the movements are any good.

 

I strongly doubt that this is true:

 

Movement:

Mechanical with automatic winding

Manufacturer referred main movement is imported from Japan.
