Specific because of the design that is not understood by every customer, be it a watch lover or not… for example, there are a couple of watches I love in Bell and `ross, and others I simply can’t stand. The Instruments BR03-94 is a model I can’t understand at all. Not only it’s too complicated...

some of the reps I have also appoint on. 904 stainless steel. these are pretty resistant and behave very well, almost servicing for the 4th year... 904l is harder attainable than 316, but not impossible to obtain. I hardly can believe that those dealers promising 904l steel sell, actually, 316l...

Not afraid of this movement at all. Sellita is used by Raymond Weil, Tag Heuer, Hublot, and Sinn in their watches. Most people blaming the mechanism don’t tell the whole story. In many cases, they aren’t accurate with their watches, either don’t wind them properly or don’t clean them regularly...

thanks for sharing it with us...

Any connoisseurs of this movement here? Circumstantially, got a Hamilton Scuba running on this mechanism. Brand new came from an official store. Have no idea how long it stayed in the store. The point is that after day 1 of wearing it, the watch indicated -1 sec/day. For the rest of the...

That’s why I almost never re-sell the watches I buy. I rather leave them safely in the safe for an undetermined period of time than get rid of them. If I decide to have a new watch, it means it has something special in it. With the passing of time, we all get used to them and the “special” of...

SMITHS VINTAGE PRS-35 is what drives me crazy lately. Not the most luxurious piece of course, but love its vintage air. Inspired by 50s watches and all components are designed specifically for this model. Except for the movement of course. So, no stock components in it :D 316 steel...

had the great" experience t wait up to 3 months during covid :D didn't have problems with shipping lately from China to Australia

Removing the bezel is not a big deal. Don’t really know bout Hamilton or Glycine, but Rolex owners do it easily. You can watch some YouTube videos to see how easy-peasy they perform it

why do most of you here talk about reps and their functional or dysfunctional features? the author clearly stated that he has 2 gen watches and some functions he doesn't use... dear @neverHAVEIever, wear what you please... people have no idea about how seldom you use your functions. If you like...

look at this vintage beauty it's my buddy's piece. Dates back to 1976 and it’s a 1680. I can’t tell you how many times this watch was exposed to water as my close friend takes it to the swimming pools, not to mention lakes and seas every summer. During its entire existence, at least since the...

"Am I exaggerating things?"- yes you are The Bond community would devour you right away, looking how you're struggling with the matter :D im sure that people who bought Paul Newman Daytona rep (because the gen is the most expensive watch from all Rolex), didn't actually buy it because of the...

once paid 55$ for repairing a Luminox Navyseal BLACKout Military Dive timepiece. The minute/second hands worked ok, while the hour wouldn't move, like frozen. the price for the watch-around 370$, if not mistaken.

lacquer thinner, u mean? My grandpa used to use such. But I recall him telling me another thing: acetone is different from lacquer thinner in its chemical structure. Acetone evaporates faster than lacquer, so I don’t quite understand how could lacquer leave no residues when it evaporates slower…...

so, why would u buy a gen iPhone, if Chinese versions are 95% similar? 😂😂😂 and even come with 2 sim cards😂😂😂😂😂😂 with gens, one always has the certainty of quality, with reps-there is always the concern about "how long it will function, how do I repair it, where to find components for it..."...

Sweeeeeeeet 🤩🤩🤩 I must say that I made a similar gift to my sister’s husband. It was a Classic Fusion 42 mm titanium rep. it looked so stylish and attractive that I almost bought a similar one for myself (but finally got an omega one). It came in real titanium material which was pretty shocking...

good and always up-to-date reminder... thank you for the post! we might unintentionally omit 1-2 steps form the list, so reading this again and again will minimize any potential risks

Shocked by the #5 point about stainless steel. I never would have thought 904 steel reps don’t exist. Here, I see it more like a subjective opinion based exclusively on the author’s experience, still believing that 904 steel reps do exist. I don’t particularly refer to those that are cheap...

inclined to this position mostly))) for daily tasks, I usually put on utilitarian watches. when attending special occasions and event, I put on my rep for statement purposes. at such events, there are few people I truly know, most are unfamiliar to me. so, having no problem with just admitting...

statement piece. I like when my watch is noticed
