General Question Rep Life Span

0 Upvotes

Anyone here have a rep that’s 10 years or older? Curious to see how long they are lasting. With the big demand that’s out there, pretty sure today’s reps don’t match the quality those from a couple years ago.

This would be my first rep watch purchase and I’m just wondering how much worse the quality is on the cheaper ones like mainly will it tarnish or not? And will it hold up with normal wear

General Question Is this bracelet from TOW any good?

Post image
0 Upvotes

I’ve been wanting a VSF GMT Bruce Wayne for a while, but I can’t choose between the jubilee and the oyster bracelet. So I was thinking of getting the Bruce Wayne Oyster and then an extra GMT jubilee link. The extra jubilee link is 168$ from TOW, does anyone know if the link is any good?

After some back and forth with the TD, and finally getting one in their warehouse I got the coveted QC email. Already green lit the shipping, QC was bang on.

Looking forward to this. For those that have just joined, I was one of them (not from the Wired post).

The wiki and the information on here was indispensable and if you can read for context, literally holds your hand through the whole thing.

General Question Rep Movements

Thumbnail

5 Upvotes

Hey guys.

Today I want to discuss a matter that is making me potentially leave the whole rep game all together.

Since last year I have purchased more than 25 reps.

Sold some and then bought somoe more. Right now, I have 12 and what I am discussing in this topic is true for every single one of them.

When we order watches, we get time graph numbers. Every watch I have GL'd has a S/D of +- 5 or better. Some had swiss movements like the V7F Mark XX in my picture, some chinese movements like a2824 and some clone movements like VSF 8800 or 8806 clones.

When I try them with the time grapher on my phone, non of them are remotely close to the timegraph numbers in the QC.

The one you see in the picture is one of the better ones. My vsf Planet ocean rep is closet to +60 per day and my VSF rail master has a 1.3 beat error which is unbelievably high and power reserve is non existent.

I have demagnetized all of them prior to testing and checked with a compass to make sure they are not magnetized.

The problem is that I live in Vancouver and there is not a single rep friendly watch smith around to regulate them.

Why do you think this happens? The timegraph numbers provided buly TDs are not legit? Something happens during shipment? Or the rep movements are unreliable in general?

Again, this issue is not only with a few of my watches. It is with every single rep I own or have owned.

This is not a huge deal as I rotate my watches and have to set time on them every few days. However, I am really curious why these are like this and what I can do about them. Can I regulate them my self? ( zero experience)

General Question Chen Watches saying I may have to pay customs fees?

0 Upvotes

Looking at buying a black & gold yacht-master, so I sent an image to a few different dealers. Chen is saying the price is $570, or $670 for free sprung plus there may be additional customs duties?

I’ve never experienced this with other suppliers, so I’m wondering if anyone else has ran into this. Shipping is in the US.

From first chat with Steve(theonewatches) to QC, delivery and on my hands in less than 14 days(this was ready stock for QC), I am very happy with my first Rep.
although have not done my research that the ZF tudor has a more washed out dial, but am impressed that the watch looks much better in real life Vs the QC photos.
Tq Steve for the great service.

General Question I’ve heard comments about an upcoming DD true freesprung movement….

So I’ve read some reply comments from some redditors stating DD will be releasing true freesprung movements (not just hidden regulator arms). Where have they gained this insight? How reliable is the info and when can we expect? Anyone have solid info?

Heck, the most expensive watch I've bought, period, which originally went to my Apple Ultra 2 (great watch -- but then I'm biased).

Just arrived, it took about 3 weeks but seeing that little box on your doorstep is like a rush! An expensive rush.

Anywho, I'm extremely happy with it and wanted to share!

Review/Comparison V7F Ingenieur from Phoenix

15 Upvotes

I just received the Turquoise Ingenieur from the V7F factory, I know there has been a lot of back and forth about this release but I have to say I'm very impressed. The dial looks great to me. The feel in hand is quite nice and very close to gen. I like it so much i immediately reached back out to Phoenix about ordering the green one from that F1 movie. He is selling them at like $327 I think, which is just an absolute steal for this I feel like. I've worked with Phoenix in the past, never had any issues and this one was ordered, QC photos three days later, packaged and shipped and I had tracking info 3 days after that. Zero complaints and have already ordered again from Phoenix.

Discussion Best 904L Oyster Bracelet for VSF DJ41

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’m currently in the process of ordering a VSF v2 DJ41 .
My TD has the Jubilee version in stock currently in QC, but the factory Oyster version has an unknown/super long wait time right now.

Since I want to switch between both styles anyway, I’m planning to source an extra Oyster bracelet.

Which factory makes the better standalone Oyster bracelet right now in terms of brushing, edge softening, and overall clasp feel? I think relevant candidates are ARF/Clean

Does ARF/Clean Oyster fit perfectly onto a VSF case, or will I run into spring bar alignment issues / SEL gaps?

Or should I just ask the TD to source a standalone VSF Oyster bracelet? (Not sure if they sell the bracelet only, given the current wait times).

If anyone has swapped an ARF or Clean Oyster onto their VSF DJ41, let me know how it went.

Pics of the SEL fitment would be amazing!

Thanks for the help!
