SteveR123 0 Posted February 2, 2011 Hello, my name is Steve and I am a noob. I have 3 reps, purchased prior to finding this forum, and 3 on order from RWG Trusted Dealers. I am currently looking for a Rep Rolex DayDate with gold strap, gold bezel, and gold face. I have found this one http://www.silix-prime.com/rols137-p-1601.html from silix but haven' t found any reviews. I'd appreciate some opinions on this rep or suggested alternatives from other dealers. Thanks In Advance!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
markturnr 0 Posted February 2, 2011 Robert just put a few up. I got one for my father for Christmas and it's quite good considering what I paid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ww12345 0 Posted February 2, 2011 If you're looking for a general review of Silix, Jee is a good seller, and will help you every step of the way! As far as a review of the watch, it looks good and is from the higher end of his offerings. I think it is a rep of an older model, though. IE: 1980s or so. Not a D-D expert, though.

greg_r 81 Posted February 2, 2011 The watch looks really nice, although I'd take the claim of a swiss ETA movement with a pinch of salt - Robert is currently the only dealer who I would guarantee to supply the gen swiss movement when he claims to (most dealers rely on the factories to tell them which movement it is, and the factory description isn't always accurate). Silix are a great dealer, though, and I'm sure you'll be happy with the watch Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I ordered the small crown Bond Sub from Silix (with genuine swiss ETA claimed) and received a swiss ETA, but that could be luck of the draw... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AllergyDoc 40 Posted February 2, 2011 Hasn't the "rep community" settled on calling them "genuine ETA" movements instead of "Swiss ETA"? I believe most or all of the parts are made in China and maybe assembled in Europe? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
