JimN1564 28 Posted January 11, 2021 I have a replica I I picked up ... well somewhere in the mid ‘90s. How much better is the quality now from back then? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Glaude 1,615 Posted January 12, 2021 Probably quite a bit better, but some older replica was more than decent back then, post some pics if you still have it ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brang1 4,006 Posted January 12, 2021 I think nowadays we as a consumer are much more selective with quality on reps, whereas back in the day you had to take what was available. Nowadays lot of factories actually use samples of the gen to make a better end product 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thrasher 135 Posted January 12, 2021 100 Xs better quality IMHO Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mystery Shopper 5,887 Posted January 12, 2021 Quality as in more accurate reps compared to gen around- Yes. Quality as in better made watches- Probably- although Chinese manufacturing still produces lemons from time to time. Many of us still have watches bought here 10 years ago and they still are going strong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JimN1564 28 Posted January 12, 2021 I don’t have it any more... but it wasn’t very good... I just ordered a 5513 from Mary. I’m hoping it looks good and performs well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
