freudiaans 0 Posted May 30, 2014 Could anyone tell me if this http://www.p-cls.com/iwbp10001-pilot-5002-ssle-asian-p-12112.html http://www.ttw888.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=30_238&products_id=9378 is a good watch from a trustable site? In what ways does it differ from the gen watch (apart from strap which is rubbish I suppose)? I know it's got faux 7 days. It also says: 'no recess date', however i'm not sure what that means. Does it refer to daylight saving time? Should I get this one or is there a better alternative? I'd like to hear your opinions please. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Left Coast Guy 24 Posted May 30, 2014 To start, both Perfect Clones and Trusty Time are Trusted Dealers here, so yes both are trustable sites. I have purchased from both and been nothing less than pleased with what I've gotten. In terms of the differences, I'd recommend you google images of the original and compare with the rep yourself. Its hard for us to know what is a material difference to you and what is not. At a high level: -- The straps are all terrible. I'd get the nylon/kevlar one if its an option. The leather ones are notorious for tearing cause they are too stiff and can't bend to fit around your wrist -- Power reserve (PR): You can either get a working PR that is badly out of position vs. the gen or the faux PR which is in the right place and right size, but doesn't work. I recommend the faux PR -- With the working PR models, the extra distance between dial and mov't needed to accommodate the PR, make the date wheel far from the dial. The effect makes the date wheel look recessed or deep inside the watch This is a good model and I love mine, but I'd suggest you search the forum on it, cause its not a super rep and you need to be aware of the issues so you aren't disappointed with what you get. Here's a thread from someone that wasn't all too happy with theirs from TT, but mostly because they didn't do their research: http://www.rwg.bz/board/index.php?showtopic=79244&hl=&fromsearch=1 No idea what you mean by daylight savings time....
