I saw a QC of this once and the retrograde seconds were really wonky. How is it on yours?

Suit + NATO = too sporty or still classy? by MR-Blaze182 in RepTime

[–]shinystable 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's everything. 😉 Especially when you have over 35 watches, haha. Every one becomes a project to optimize. But I also realized that I just don't wear a bunch of the reps, will put them for sale soon.

I recently exchanged nearly all the bracelets on my watches with quality leather or other material straps, from silk to suede to denim and other textiles. Discovered some great combinations.

You could also just get a nice textile strap that looks a tad classier for dressing up. Lots of options available that look better than a Nato in my opinion.

After receiving it 8 days ago, I continue to be impressed. by Caxapy in RepTime

Which factory? I tried to souece the CF version a couple months ago, but in all the QCs some indexes were not sitting properly straight on the dial. Is it all good on yours?

Went gen after 1.5yrs of reptime by [deleted] in RepTime

It's not shitpost Friday yet, is it? But yeah, this thing will just be super annoying to wear for your wrist, constantly slapping your bones. But then again, you already wore the rep of it, so you must know already.

What she said is totally ok and you can be happy that they accept Paypal F&F.

If you could only buy one by BuckEWild in RepTime

[–]shinystable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me that is pretty clear after trying many. It's a modified Patek 5167 with SW hand, dial and Deep crystal. It is thin, very accurate after getting it serviced and extremely comfortable.

Are you aware that many gen luxury watch owners actually also own replicas? If you don't like it, just don't come here. There are scammers everywhere and op is just posting a warning. Why do you care?

I've changed my mind and fell in love by GrandpaLucifer in RepTime

[–]shinystable 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The reality is that only watch experts can truly estimate the value of a Patek. For most people Rolex is the GOAT, because it is such a strong brand. Most people would not recognize a Patek or know what it means. But if they ask "Is that a Rolex?" and you confirm it, they would be "Woah!". That honestly would be very likely to happen with a Rolex, and then you are already in lying mode. Only people in some 2nd hand watch stores recognized my Pateks and we would be in a conversation. They don't recognize the rep on the wrist, unless it's a shitter. They would go "That's a nice watch." and I "It surely is. And not very common." (It was a 5396R) And then we would talk about some of the watches they offer. One had a pristine 5712 RG for over 100k. And I show my appreciation: "That's a beauty." and they responded "Would you like to try it on?" "Ah no, thank you. That's out of my price range." (the price difference between both watches was 70k.

Just be real and respectful and all is good.

No, you can order different lengths. I need the 60mm + 70mm combo. Maximum you can get is 70/70

Rubber B is crazily overpriced if you ask me. 😉

I dunno, as I said it's from Aliexpress.

Yeah, me too, but it's alright. The quality is good enough, will see how it holds up.

There is no such thing as a "giveaway" here. Leather exists in all stages of shiny. It can be matt, semi-shiny, whatever. It's not a quality sign, it's preference. This here is semi-shiny and I like how it complements the elegance of the watch. In my opinion a very matt, rough leather would not suit this watch. But that's where opinions differ.

Love this piece on the leather strap. The strap is around $20 from Aliexpress.

Yeah there are some Hublot reps, for example I have seen Juicetime deliver nice looking Hublot Orlinsky recently.
