Thanks - just posted a review over in the homages/budget gens subforum: http://www.replica-watch-guide.net/forum/i...?showtopic=2541

 

I like Rotary - at least so long as they're copying other manufacturers and not doing their own designs :irish_dance: I must have owned around six or seven over the years. All homages of sorts (the best was a clone of the JLC reverso - sweet watch. Wish I hadn't sold it now...)

Truth be told, I'm envious - if I had the spare dough I'd probably be as bad...

I wonder what how they compare to the Parnis Breitling homages, because Parnis makes a Breitling Navitimer homage don't they?

Good question - dunno. Isn't the Parnis one auto? (this is quartz). I'll admit that if I'm going to have to have a manufacturer's name on my homage, I'd rather have it read 'Rotary' rather than 'Parnis' ;)

mad dawg

This just arrived from Getat. I am happy with the brown dial and Ti match. The strap is nice and soft although the keeper digs into my wrist when on the PC, I will much around with the position.

 

  1. One small problem, the CG isn't flush with the case. A bit of elbow grease will fix this.
  2. One BIG problem the rotor was noisey as hell. I had to rub some silicon grease into the bearing to make it quiet. There is still plenty of play in it but, at least it aint whirling. Think I will stick to handwinds (besides hadwinds are a good excuse to play with your watch everyday).

 

Hope you enjoy the quick pics

Rotary is very nice.. My favorite Breit homage by far.

The Ti MM is sweet..

That's rather nice - I had been thinking of buying one of those myself. Hmmm....

Man, that thing looks just like the gen. A good rep for sure.

 

Greg - I was like you, but I have started liking it more and more after seeing pics of it on WUS.

I will do a comparative review at some point.

 

Has a Swiss 2824 movement that runs well. I probably will do some light vintagizing on it, on the crystal, bezel and case.

Yup - to be honest I was like that with Panerai at first and now look what happened :popcorn:

 

I shall reserve judgement for now, but yeah, it looks a damn good replication :lol:

The AR is fantastic.

The Lume is fantastic.

The bracelet is really comfy.. though I like the look on the rubber strap better (I should get my rep rubber strap tomorrow from Gazumi)

It's got to be one of the more comfortable steel bracelets I've worn. But the rubber is perfect.

 

Enjoy that beauty. Welcome to the gen PO club!
