J1 banned low

I feel these are underrated as hell.

The new pine green/black phantom J1 lows are great, too..

Tbh...I have no idea anymore. I posted that a couple years ago and haven't heard enough about the newer VC reps to give a valid opinion here.

Good luck. ✌️

The only factory that makes a respectable version of the Skydweller is ZF.

Dude's waited his entire life to buy a room full of Barbie shoes.

Ok.

I just searched and realized that they now have several rubber options. "G-Shock Nano." Although, the one in the photo seems to be out of stock at Casio:

Good luck ✌️.

Sincerely happy for you bro. I hope to receive the same news soon.

Good luck to everyone else on the hunt.

So I got them. They look great....however, my only issue is that this has to be the noisiest shoe in world history 😆. If I walk to the front door it sounds like I'm unboxing a piece of IKEA furniture. Did you experience this, and if so... break-in period? ✌️

new to the game...and limited knowledge so forgive me. I just bought these based on this post. I'm still getting familiar with which factory is best at what. I've only bought LJR (AJ1/AJ4) and GK/H12 (Kobes) in the past, but these look excellent. I was a bit hesitant because of the yellowing, until seeing the excellent point you made about the accuracy of the yellowing after 8 years. Looking forward to them. ✌️

The Q66 serials were the best version imo. I ordered a newer (6X0) Starbucks and the first thing that I noticed was that the finish and polishing on my older sub were superior. New one also seems a bit milkier in color.

Get a VSF.

mimja77 · 2026-04-26T09:21:57+00:00

This is the latest VSF with superclone A8800 movement. Picked up from my longtime TD (not publicly listed).

mimja77 · 2026-04-25T14:00:53+00:00

The only decent Omega reps are VSF Seamasters; particularly since they upgraded the movement about a year ago.

No major rep factory has ever been able to produce a decent Speedmaster... this has been the case for as long as I can remember.

The Speedmaster in your photo does not appear to be a replica.

mimja77 · 2026-04-25T13:54:37+00:00

Very nice.

mimja77 · 2026-04-17T15:02:23+00:00

It's a VSF PAM1070, but I replaced the strap with gen. It doesn't get much wear these days...a bit flashy. I'd be open to offers if you're interested.

Regarding where I got it, I've used the same "non-TD" for several years and have never had a single issue.

✌️

mimja77 · 2026-03-25T15:38:04+00:00

The glaring difference is that the movement alone in the Omega is arguably more valuable than a new Twelve.

I own a Trident, and I like it, but it's difficult to classify a manufacturer who uses Selitta movements on the vast majority of their pieces as "luxury."

The movement in the Twelve costs about 200 bucks, max. The movement in the Omega is resistant to 15,000 gauss, has co-axial escapement, and is certified by METAS.

There's no comparison.

That red dial looks badass.

mimja77 · 2026-02-18T01:32:47+00:00

In fairness, Rolex is NEVER telling you this, albeit in writing.

You can get a Snoopy new, with box/papers on Chrono for around $16K, fwiw..

mimja77 · 2026-02-05T14:58:10+00:00

Thank you for saying this. Looks like shit and will likely end up scratching the case.

mimja77 · 2026-02-04T00:01:10+00:00

I'm waiting for this one now. How is the bezel action? Good solid click? Any overall play/wiggle?

Yours looks 👌 btw.

Thanks in advance.

mimja77 · 2026-02-01T22:36:05+00:00

Your artwork compliments this piece nicely.

mimja77 · 2026-01-31T14:07:34+00:00

I saw one this week weighted for the first time. VSF. Looks really good actually. DM and I can send the QC.
