JoeH 0 Posted January 19, 2014 Hey all! So I got this guy a few days ago from ToroBravo and let me just say Wow! this thing is awesome. It's super heavy, reeks of quality and other than the lume issue and the pushers, looks identical to the gen. I even took it to a local jeweler to have a pin replaced and he thought it was the real deal! To top it off, I had HeavyKrush make me up a canvas strap for it and well, here are the results.. (sorry for the photo quality, a photographer I am not) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

millionaire wannabe 1 Posted January 19, 2014 That's a fine piece of wrist machinery you got yourself there. Precisionruggedutilitymanliness all wrapped up in a nice package. .. wear it in health and hope you get long service out of it. Also I recommend investing in a good watch box, Amazon has all different kinds quite reasonably priced. Before you know it you will be raking in watches hand over fist and you'll need a place to store em and keep em safe. I came here last year with a few years experience buying reps, been collecting since I was 18 though. After about 5 or 6 years of leaving off buying reps and buying only gens I dove back into the rep game full throttle after picking up a Yachtmaster and DeepSea SeaDweller. The quality levels in reps these days compared to just ten years ago is staggering! And ten years ago when I was in my twenties there was already some pretty amazing pieces to be had! But now, WOW! So I had a motley crew of about ten or eleven gens and reps when I found rwg....as of yesterdays DDII delivery I'm pushing the 30 mark and looking at getting my third box. Hope you keep coming back ("it works if you work it" lol) and keep learning and collecting. Its a rewarding hobby. Lots of friendly fellow collectors here. And make no mistake about it, you've joined an exclusive club! We're like the Navy SEALS of watch collectors here, with all the knowledge and training and dirty little secrets available to us, we've got a tremendous advantage over the poor blokes randomly surfing the web and buying from sketchy dealers.

simonbolivar 1 Posted January 20, 2014 Love the B&R... This was the exact rep I fell in love with when I first found the forum, about a year ago. I wound up buying Pam's, Rollie's and IWCs instead, but I think it may be time to grab one of these. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JoeH 0 Posted January 20, 2014 Hahaha! The badge placement in that photo was no accident. I'm actually a humane investigator. So unless you guys are kicking puppies, we're cool. Scottie - the ends of the pushers are smooth whereas on the original.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JoeH 0 Posted January 20, 2014 Millionaire - I'm hooked, no question. I've already started looking around for #2. I love some of the designs that Graham has to offer. And Breitling, and Panerai... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kopcap 0 Posted February 5, 2014 Hey all! So I got this guy a few days ago from ToroBravo and let me just say Wow! this thing is awesome. It's super heavy, reeks of quality and other than the lume issue and the pushers, looks identical to the gen. I even took it to a local jeweler to have a pin replaced and he thought it was the real deal! To top it off, I had HeavyKrush make me up a canvas strap for it and well, here are the results.. (sorry for the photo quality, a photographer I am not) looks really great ! i'll have a B&R GMT within few days, but the strap is rubber-made and not good looking (for me) where did you get your's ?

JoeH 0 Posted February 5, 2014 You'll want to speak with Greg (Heavykrush on the forum). I know that he was getting low on the green canvas that he used for the strap above but all his designs look great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jwallace8 0 Posted February 17, 2014 I NEED one of these. Love it on the canvas strap! Definitely will be an upcoming purchase for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
butchyg73 0 Posted March 7, 2014 I've had my BR02 (from Marv Reps) for almost a year and still absolutely love it. It's a beautiful watch and a top notch reproduction. That green canvas is the cats ass! I just emailed Heavykrush to see if i can get one too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
