Hi all,

I'm new here and want to buy my first rep... Looks like I need your experience :D

At intime I found those two models and I can't decide which one would be the better choice:
  1. https://www.intime05.co/omega/5406-...-edition-black-dial-on-ss-bracelet-a8900.html
  2. https://www.intime05.co/omega/5685-...l-on-black-nylon-strap-a8900-super-clone.html
Apart from the bracelet (I'm fine with both) I see two main differences. The movement and the bezel.

Don't know which movement is the more reliable one. 1:1 super replica sounds really good to me but is it the better choice. Regarding the bezel the orange rubber sounds good because I read somewhere that the original has rubber as well. But can not see it so well on the photos.

What do you think which is the better entry into the world of reps?

The VSF has the better orange rubber on the bezel. The OM does have the orange rubber, but it isn't flat with the bezel (as the gen is). However, the numbering on the OM bezel is flat and shiny like the gen. The VSF has numbers that are indented a tiny bit. You may also want to think about the movements. Which one is easiest to repair. The VSF will be much more expensive to repair, but it has an almost exact replica movement. The Asian 2824 will be easier to repair. ...a lot to think about.
