mammoli 0 Posted November 27, 2010 Hi, I am looking for a good rep of a Portuguese in black with register at 12 and 6. Do anyone know who could have it? Have you ever bought one? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mbjoer 0 Posted November 28, 2010 There are a few options. 1) Quartz. Visually less accurate, but reliable. 2) Automatic standard rep. This one has serious problems with the movement and my strong recommendation is to avoid this option. And 3) Franken. Very expensive option, but visually good and reliable. All in all I would take a close look around for another watch before you decide on this particular one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've just bought one of those - however not worn it for a longern time yet... What are usual flaws? Edited February 28, 2011 by goatrider Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Most eventual end up failing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
