Recommended Posts

Abennett090

Hey all,

 

 I am looking to source 5 Rolex President watches with specs similar to the following. 

1. Full lab diamond bezels

2. Rolex 3255 clone movement

3. As much gen parts as possible after those specs

4. Up to $1500 each. 

5. Can come without diamonds, but have a bezels ready to accept diamonds I have installed after the fact. 

Looking to develop relationship with one source who can deliver regularly for music industry clients with specific demands.

Not going to get many gen parts for $1500.  Probably only a DWO, crystal, crown and hands at the most or a dial and nothing else.

It's kinda hard to build and source parts for one DayDate let alone five.....

Is it just me being cynical, or do I get a whiff of some scamming in the offing?

Gen hang tag though!!!  :rofl:

OP you do know the watch weight won’t be right, you can get real diamond bezels made but a decent one will start at $1500.00 

probably cost in excess of $6000 to build a half decent gold Franken, even then it be without a bracelet.

If it helps, RWI has some info on building DayDates. I doubt they’re near $1500. I think that’s 1/3 the price for a gold president bracelet.

A gold case for that watch runs $4000 last I checked.

Also, there is no clone of the daydate movement. I don’t think you can anticipate it getting cloned for a while.

Which area of the music industry are we talking? Are these for cover version artists like the ones on those “Top of the Pops” records?

So, who has the best day date president?

Let me make this easy for you, OP. 

If you don't at least see the basis of what you are looking for on the following pages, then you are going to be fighting a severely uphill battle:

https://www.intime05.co/28-datejust-daydate?p=4

Nobody is making these watches with clone style movements yet. What you're seeing here is the 'state of the art' in OOTB reps of the model you're speaking of.  

If you can make this work with 28xx movements, you're in with half a prayer. 

I ain't no false profit, I just know what I know; if you're planning on passing these off as genuine, you can't make a silk purse out of a sow. 

Now where can I get some mortgage advice, proclamation style?

Nope, buyers genuinely know they want the flexing without paying the flexing price. Lol. We have discussed every detail of exactly what they are getting. If he gives me permission, I'll post one of the guys talk videos later tonight.

Not trying to pass as genuine to the buyers, but buyers would like them to be as authentic as possible so by all appearances their "crew" won't know any different. In terms of the movement, i have seen the new presidents since 2017 carry a newer movement, correct? So is their no clones of either the new or older movements? If not, that's ok, as for these guys, again, no one is opening the back and checking for them. However, they know about sweeping hands etc. Well I guess that's a good question, does the day date sweep? If so, whichever movement would be used in place of the OEM should be as close to factory sweep wise as possible (I know there are far more technical terms here, which is why if I could find someone who could do a bunch of these for me, it will be easiest to discuss on phone etc). Also, is there anyone that these boards recommend particularly for finding correct fitment diamonds at rappaport report back 20% or more prices. And as noted, I would honestly just prefer lab diamonds as the costs savings to me far outweighs the "genuine earth grown" bs.

Hey all, so wierd, just heads up, I am abennett090, seems when I chose forgot password, it linked so some other super old account or wrong one I don't know. But I wanted to say that the Intime site you all linked for me is A TON OF INFORMATION for me to absorb about these watches. I am going to spend a bunch of time just learning tonight so I can be a more educated buyer and not waste y'all's time too much with details that I should be able to address on my own. I will say that for external gen parts, my budget per watch can up to $3000 each depending on which ones y'all would think would be the most crucial to splurge on, aside from the diamonds on the bezel. For anyone on the fence about worrying if I am trying to pass as gen, I can provide details on my convos with the gentleman I am helping (I am going to be getting one myself too!). Thanks y'all!

I don't think that anyone cares about what you want or feels the need to be your shopping assistant.

That has the worst aftermarket bezel I’ve seen

To be clear all gold reps will fail crew check, they are way too light.
