I for one have never swam with reps, I mean for me isn’t a big deal. If I know that my day involves water or water sports I wear my gen divers or don’t wear a watch at all. The way I see it and then again, this is totally my personal point of view, these watches are for cosmetic purposes only, where I wear them to enjoy them or in case want to try them before buying a gen. I don’t expect the reps to be waterproof, I am happy as long as they keep good time.

You get that watch yet? We're dying to see your one-off detached rehaut. We'll crown you king of RWI if we were wrong... :deadhorse:

Give him some time, he's probably busy checking if the RAT (Rehaut Attachment Tool) is aligned on his watch!

Well...your post makes far more sense than the OP. No need to apologize. Post on!

I assumed he'd not logged on in ages, but nope - he's a regular visitor!

So it seems he's not as good as his word and actually isn't prepared to easy humble pie. Disappointing.

Pure entertainment! And wit!

Detached Rehaut.

I initially read this thread when it only had a few posts and am impressed with how it exploded! As a newbie, it can be a bit daunting getting your first rep and over analysing QC pics but OP should have listened to experienced members and communicated a bit better.

While we all wait for the conclusion (don't hold your breath) I want in on this action:

I heard that back in the day, rehaut detachment was common, even with gens. This was due to size variances due to rehauts being sourced in the wild. They were a bit more gamey as well. Now I understand that Rolex grows them in-house, and with modern GE science, can clone them almost perfectly. Is it possible OP somehow got lucky and managed to get a genuine, wild rehaut installed in his rep?

While we are at it, if anyone here wants a "trained eye" to assess your QCs, I'm your huckleberry. I'm expecting Smoke to be the first to take me up on this offer.
