cigator 0 Posted August 28, 2010 Just got my BK DSSD in the mail today. It is my first replica and I am impressed with the quality. I always like the Cartier Santos and was wondering what you might recommend as a good source for a high quality rep of this model. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Silverspeed 10 Posted August 28, 2010 The recently released rep Santos's looke very good...much better than the previous versions. The biggest improvements are the correct dial and much better crown. These newer rep Santos's come in different grades starting from around $400 with an ETA2824 up to the $1500 1:1 rep including a gen movement, even better case, clasp, bezel and a genuine croc leather strap. Most of the trusted dealers here on RWG should be able to source these newer Santos's for instance from Replicamake http://www.replicamake.com/product_info.ph...roducts_id=1824 Do bear in mind that these socalled "ultimate" versions come with the normal rep strap, which are not very good to say the least...they are crap! If you want a good aftermarket croc leather strap for the Santos you'll need to spend another $200 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
