Damn nice review, especially the angled parts. That you review it as a "watch" and as a "rep".

Repworld stop quoting this from Kobe, we got it the first time, no need to repeat all over the place and also stop spreading non sense and useless post with non TD link
I will not let you pollute a good review thread with your inane drivel !

Thank you. I truly believe a watch must first stand up as a "Watch" in its own right. Next it can represent the watch it is replicating.

This statement of yours :

“ They haven't made a copy they have made "The watch" in a different place.... “

thank you for your passion, that is why I come on this forum for , to find the true aficionados...

there is a lot of discussion on each release , some are well justified with valid points, but dare I say 80% of posts are total nonsense from either immature or insecure individuals to quite frankly pseudo members with specific agendas...

So thank you so much again for your time to bring some genuine freshness on the fora ;)

You certainly need the latest that's for sure.

And just in case you don't remember, if I say don't do something, you follow what I say, there's no room for debate on that matter, if you don't, expect some consequences.
Nobody want to read your useless post, your opinionated way of commenting or most of the thing you post, so take a walk from this thread unless you have something interesting to share and I'm not asking.

You can see how maker poor compare with ZF , Olso they borrow aquanaut old model! for replication, but still 3k aquanaut better choice at the moment , I can’t believe they have clone movement with borrowed watch , I hope ZF finish this job and movement supplier allow to sell it for another makers..

They "make poor" compare with ZF? Dude my opinion of you is dropping by the second. THEY REPLICATED A PATEK PHILLIPE MOVEMENT. Think about it. Think about it again. REALLY think about it. Ok now tell me again they "make poor". My god mate, people like you are unbearable. If they just engraved the movement everyone would think this movement is massiveeeee jump from what was available before.

I Think he’s saying, you can see how they are an new producer with little money compared to ZF. Not that they made a poor watch. Also think he’s saying, All their money went into the movement and the case was an old production one from a different factory they housed it in.

I get thats what he is saying. But it makes no sense. If they had no money they wouldn't come out the gate with something as outlandishly ambitious as a clone movement.
Its just way more likely that they made a business decision to put out an inferior product with the clone movement as a short term cash grab because they had old-production cases they otherwise couldn't sell and then they will put out a better product once they use most of those parts. A basic understanding of business will allow someone to come up with a better theory than some bullcrap that they don't have money.

lol for a sec I thought this was a 3000 usd rep, not just the factory name.. might get this and put it on leather, looks amazing imo


I will never buy GP But if they made that watch in actual gold I would happily pay that 3 K for it and a bit more.

Thank you for the wonderful review! Would you mind sharing some photos of the clasp detail? Would love to see how it looks on wrist compared to the ZF clasp.
