Member X 91 Posted April 13, 2012 I'm sold Payment just made to Mary Haha! Sorry! I think the rep looks better than the gen. +1 The caseback looks much better, although the rep pics are much better than the gen, admittedly lol Is that the rep strap as well? Looks like they've changed the strap for one with correct stitching colour! Although I prefer the white stitching myself... lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mark Freeman 0 Posted April 21, 2012 Hi members, I am looking for the best replica of this model. The common problems I find is that both the date magnifier are poor reproductions of the original. The digit sizes are too small and thin and the magnifier is poor quality. I prefer brushed metal as polished tends to look too shiny compared to the original. Sandwich dial is hard to find. has anyone got any recommendations? FYI I bought one from sinowatches and although it passes as an original for the most part, on closer inspection a relatively trained eye will spot the flaws. Any assistance will be appreciated. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tommylad 0 Posted April 21, 2012 Mine arrived from Trevor earlier this week. Cheaper than 111, Hi-beat movement, closed caseback and very good rep strap. Simply put: a great watch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
