Balad1 0 Posted April 14, 2011 Interesting and cheap Manbushijie rep auction. http://cgi.ebay.com/43mm-Parnis-Power-Rese...=item3cb70341f6 PS: If you register on his website the wholesale price for this watch is $63, http://www.manbushijie.com/productshow-397-2.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KeNnY 29 Posted April 14, 2011 there was one time I wanted to buy this watch, but now I would rather buy IWC rep of this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greg_r 81 Posted April 14, 2011 Meh. Firstly I personally wouldn't buy from manbushije. He'll supply you a watch but aftersales is basic to nonexistant. Secondly that faux tourby (exposed balance wheel) just screams 'cheap junk' to me, sorry... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Member X 91 Posted April 14, 2011 +1 to greg - exposed balance wheels are what the companies think makes watch noobs go 'ooooooh!' but it is a cheap and easy way to try and look 'a bit flash' rather than do a proper design Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

turnipz 0 Posted April 14, 2011 (edited) http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...RK%3AMEWNX%3AIT I got my dad one of these, nice watch for a beater as its quartz and says its waterproof. For 10 bucks I highly suggest one of these, ill test its waterproofness if anyone is interested. They have them in rolex homage and tag homage as well for just as cheap.

Balad1 0 Posted April 14, 2011 there was one time I wanted to buy this watch, but now I would rather buy IWC rep of this Kenny, I am not familiar with IWC reps, which model IWC would this be? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cynikal.Mindset 1 Posted April 14, 2011 Meh. Firstly I personally wouldn't buy from manbushije. He'll supply you a watch but aftersales is basic to nonexistant. Secondly that faux tourby (exposed balance wheel) just screams 'cheap junk' to me, sorry... Isn't this an exposed balance wheel with modified seconds at 6 so the faux tourby still spins around?

Balad1 0 Posted April 14, 2011 The thing I liked about the watch is the date and power reserve sweeping hands, I'm guessing they work. What gens/reps use these sweeping sub dials? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Balad1 0 Posted April 15, 2011 Bump for information. Does anyone know what IWC watch this Parnis reps? Also what other reps have the sweep type date and power reserve like below? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MikeMcNair 0 Posted April 15, 2011 Iwc portugese Ted, and it's a pretty cool watch in real life. The fake tourbillon isn't my thing tho. BUT..... For 63 bucks, who the he'll cares it's pretty dam cool! You could wear it for a week and throw it away and get your money's worth Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
