My First Replica has Arrived!

Recommended Posts

Chairman7w

I ordered my first Rep a few weeks ago from Narikka, and received it today! I don't know enough about Reps to make a full review (I'm SO green!), but I love this one. It had a *slight* issue with some links, but I took photos and I'm confident I'll get excellent service from this TD.

 

To me, that's minor. I *really* dig this watch!

Congrats. Before you contact your TD about the bracelet issue, let us know what exactly is the problem, as we maybe able to suggest an easy fix such as giving your bracelet the spa treatment.

Very nice, when saw Reg putting them up was tempted but wasn't sure about the 007 at the 7 marker, but actually looks quite nice in your pictures.

 

Wear it well, good first choice.

 

And a Gemmell fan to boot. A man of impeccable taste! :thumbsup:

Thanks guys, much appreciated. Here's the link issue I was referring to:

 

The small section that connects the bracelet to the clasp pulled apart the very first time I tired it on! I heard clinkety-clink as the thing went floppy on my wrist and little parts fell around me! I was VERY lucky to find all the parts.

 

So I went to work and learned how it all went to together, and got it all reassembled. But of course my fear is that it will simply do it again, and if I'm driving with the window open it could get ugly!

I've seen some people mention loctite for this kind of thing, blue one I think. Must be a non-permanent bond I suppose

Great choice man. My first rep was a PO as well (the v.5 in 42mm). I had the same problem with the links as you have - i just pressed it back together by hand and just hoped it wouldn't pop open again. Well, it has been 10 months since the incident and it has never, ever poped open! Hope it also works out for you!

As far as I know, there will be a better 007 version with the CrPO base. I'm waiting for that. :-)

Loctite 22 on the threads when putting it back together, this will stop it falling apart again. Make sure you allow 24hrs to set just to be sure.
