arancini 0 Posted May 4, 2013 This particular one is a Franken...the crystal is Gen, as are the hands. Not sure if the TD's do them...if only we had a TD section on this forum....... Awesome. Must see if RepGeek has more on this. They love their Frankens over there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nyckid 0 Posted May 4, 2013 No real issue. I have worn them into ADs. They really don't care. They just wanna sell you a watch. And the salesperson is usually clueless. Like wearing an "IU" Shirt @ Purdue's campus.... why stir the hornet's nest? Honestly, I needed to see if buying reps is worth it. I can afford most of the watches I want. But why spend the money if I don't have to. Dude, every time you give an excuse you make it even worse than it really is. If I could afford any gen of the reps I own, why would I buy reps in the first place? I don't think that makes sense. But anyway, learn your lesson and don't try it again man, is not cool and like sgtguk said and I quote "don't attract more attention to our hobby than it already has" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
