Latest aquisition... JF 114300!

Recommended Posts

Just a few quick pics of my recent pickup, a JF 114300 from Toro. It's been 2.5 years since my last rep purchase so I've been out of the game for a while. As it happens I originally had an Iwc Portugieser Annual Calendar on order with Toro but after a few misses on the QC front I switched to the 114300. Actually I didn't even know this watch was repped until I noticed it on a wrist check pic. Interestingly enough this was almost my last high end gen pickup. I narrowed my choices down to an Omega PO 45.5 and the 114300. In the end I chose the PO for my gen watch and passed on the Rollie. Very glad I did as this watch is amazing. I don't have the gen to compare but after my research this seems to be a very good rep. Currently working with a watch smith on a service for the SH3135, will update this thread once that dust settles. I had seen a few posts relative to the bracelet being a bit noisy but after a bath and lube it's silky smooth. All in all a great pickup for me. On to the pics though they are few....

Lovely piece! Great photography too, mate.

Still wearing mine almost every day, one of the best reps I’ve ever picked up.

Not too shabby but no torch either. Monster on right then V6 sub then the 114300.

Beautiful! I love the colour of the dial and the hits of blue in the hour markers, they really pop,

Enjoy :-)

Did you actually manage to capture the laser engraving twice, too?!

Nice!

I had not even noticed that. Thanks. 

Just pulled the trigger for the grape for a buddy of mine. Will snap pics once it arrives with a side-by-side.

The common consensus is indeed that this is worthy of the Super Rep tag......

But I also read that this movement has had issues if not serviced, is that still on ?
