Bbsee 469 Posted February 2, 2020 Currently looking at a Submariner 11610, with 3135 clone movement (from BP factory) Relatively new to which factories are best for which models, so any experience on this model from BP factory would be good to hear...?

Wires 4,751 Posted February 2, 2020 While waiting for a reply to your question I would do a bit of reading of the forum because to ask if anybody has heard of BP factory let alone bought a watch that was made by them shows that you haven’t done anywhere near enough yet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sifu Whitey 53 Posted February 2, 2020 ^^^ What Wires said. There’s plenty posted. Research will give you the most well rounded understanding. Just shooting out a question will get you a bunch of personal and biased opinions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bbsee 469 Posted February 2, 2020 FYI - the one I was looking at is from Joshua below: https://www.pf-868.com/special-offers/rolex-special-offer/0-rlss00036-16610-submariner-ss-black-sa-3135-special-offer.html Looked like a good deal for $228! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tribefan 6,768 Posted February 2, 2020 https://forum.replica-watch.info/forum/the-3135-3131/7439844-3135-movement-comparison-gen-sa-sh-vr You can read up on the rep 3135 movement starting there, and there are a lot more threads on it. There are some known issues and the SA is the oldest. It doesn't mean you would have problems with it, but if you did your choices to get it fixed are limited. New VR version movements are going for almost as much as the entire cost of the watch you are looking at. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Intresting 21,672 Posted February 2, 2020 You getting ripped not for asking a question, but rather asking about questions where answers are easily found if even with some cursory searching. Heaps written about BP Factory and in particular Subs and Rollies. Inmates here are generally very helpful to real issues and gaps of knowledge. What is frowned upon here is using them like a google concierge expecting answers to be served up. So next time, search and read first. If you still can't find it, ask. You be fine once you keep that in mind Happy hunting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I find it better to use Google and make it search within RWG. Although equally, I find our sister site RWI has even more of the in depth stuff you want for research purposes so I tend to do more research over there (or at least on both sites). You'll get there; you'll be a WIS before you know it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bbsee 469 Posted February 3, 2020 I found that a Google search then entering RWG seems to be fruitful yday too. Thanks for the tip - going to join RWI shortly! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FudgyDocker 3,497 Posted February 3, 2020 I find Google search for info within our site much better. especially when words you want to use have less than 4 characters. Use the following string protocol with the specific site at the end. Always comes up trumps. BP Rolex site:rwg.bz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
