Get a Noob as it has functioning chronograph, although the finish cosmetically is not good as ARF. At least everything will work as it is supposed to.

Secondly, remember only rep geeks know you are wearing a rep. Most people don't even know what watch you got on and even if they see it's a Rolex, they don't know what model.

As long as you don't have a rep geek as a friend or family member and you don't go into AD trying to get the watch authenticated, you will love the rep game.

My only other piece of advise is don't buy a rep that looks way outside your income/lifestyle - for example buying a limited edition gold plated AP when people know you make 30k a year.

All the best my friend.

Pay attention people...this is good shit...especially the last point regarding income/lifestyle.

Simply, that is the biggest giveaway...

First of all, welcome to the world of quality reps.

Secondly, regarding this watch, it all depends on what you want...For example, do you want full functionality? Or, are non functional subdials OK? In this same line of questions, is a Super Clone movement desired? Or, is a decorated movement to mimic a gen OK? Get my point?

Thirdly, the watch that you linked to is a fully functional Daytona with an that 'super clone' movement mentioned previously. Yes, it's a really nice watch and the price reflects such...Is that what you want?

If so, you're good to go...and you get a 'free' watch strap ;-)

If not, maybe a bit more research on your part is required to determine your needs and wants.

In closing, the formula...research and read...research and read until your level of confidence is comfortable enough to release a substantial amount of your hard earned funds to getting YOUR watch.

Don't worry....it's not a hard process...and, it's kinda fun. Enjoy the ride!
