panto 0 Posted July 14, 2010 (edited) O yeah and this is what i was looking at I found these dealers on your site. tell me what you think? Which ones better quality? The hands on the watch from houseofsouvenirs looks black and the one from timeshops looks silver, or is that just the light from the camera making it look that way? http://houseofsouvenirs.com/rolex/datejust...stswiss_057.htm http://www.timeshops.net/RO3611_-_Rolex_Da...2_2864-3721.htm Edited July 14, 2010 by panto Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

trailboss99 996 Posted July 14, 2010 I'd go the HOS one if I were you. It's 50 dollars cheaper and the clone MVT (movement) is just as good as the Swiss one now days. The Swiss may not be Swiss too and is possibly a re-manufactured version if it is genuine. As for the hands it's hard to tell, they me silver or black but Rolex change the combinations on these things so often both are likely to be correct anyway. Different dial, not my style but different! Welcome aboard by the way. Col. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm a little confused on what you meant by what you said "the clone MVT (movement) is just as good as the Swiss one now days. The Swiss may not be Swiss too and is possibly a re-manufactured version if it is genuine." can you place explain to this noobie? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greg_r 81 Posted July 14, 2010 The Chinese make a clone (copy) of the ETA (swiss) movement. It's so good that most parts are interchangeable between the two. Often if you pay extra for the Swiss ETA movement you either end up with a refurbished one, or the Asian clone anyhow, so you might as well save some money. Welcome to the nuthouse!
