NEWS: There's a new new 5227 rep!!

Recommended Posts

DW looks more sunken on this one... Deal breaker for me.

 

Indeed. That's a big let down.

It's very weird how that datewheel is so sunken. I've never seen any watch with a miyota movement that had this issue.

 

But hey, miyota is a great movement and it's good to see more and more Patek reps comming out!

 

I'm inclined to think it's just the lighting they used for the photo, I can see no reason whatsoever that it would have a sunken datewheel given the movement and the proportions of the watch!!!

Indeed. PC and Trusty are very well knows for their horrible photo skills. Let's wait for some QC samples that they usually post after some orders.

Nice pics! Thanks Rolex Addict! Would it be asking too much to include pictures of the exposed movement with open back?

A Cartier Roadster XL, recommended by my better half while I was looking at Patek. It seems uncommon so I'll be posting a review, as good as a noob can at least.

I'm not sure if the movement is decorated, that's why I'm hesitating :frusty:

For 2% of gen value? That's a disgrace!! What an oversight. I think Rankiba should teach the TD's a lesson and buy a gen!!!

wasn't having high expectations on them, I know they are rep, some reps have decorated movement, so I'm just not sure. don't have to be sarcastic :morebeer:
