Hi guys 
Lately I feel like I'm flooding the forum with my pics, so for tonight I thought of making a single thread for my beloved cheapies
The first one I want to show you is the Jaeger LeCoultre Master Geographic.
This watch comes from Hont, as usual, and it wasn't my first choice: I wanted a Glashutte senator that was out of stock, so I choose this one instead. I went for the rose gold case with white face.
I must admit I was quite lucky, this is not the closest to gen but it's a stunning watch and I particularly like it 'cause I find it spot on with a suit, without being too classic.
I put this one on a new faux croc strap instead of the rep strap, which sux:
Second one is my beloved Chopard Mille Miglia GT XL.
This is the 21j version and it is sold for less than a hundred bucks.
This is the watch I wear most often, and after seeing the pics I just decided I'll be wearing it tomorrow as well
Again, quite a bunch of flaws, biggest one is the open case back, but I like it as it is.
This one is on a custom strap made by the nice guys at 2d straps:
Last but not least, here's a watch I was a bit afraid to wear after all the comments I read about it repping a watch that costs 1 million dollars as gen.
Well actually I wore it today at work and, as I thought, no one even noticed my watch so I guess I'll be hardly called out
This is the Patek Philippe Skymoon tourbillion. This watch comes from Silix and again I changed the sh*tty rep strap with a genuine ostrich leg:
Okay, finally I'd like to add that the whole point of this thread was not only to share some of my pics with the member of this great forum ( thing that I like a lot anyway) but to show that even reps in the low range can be very satisfactory, at least IMHO.
As always any comment or advice is welcome.
I really hope you enjoy the pics as much as I enjoy shooting and sharing them
Thanks guys and thanks rwi.
:cheers:
