Vacheron Constantin Tour de I'lle - Replicated??

[Syd]

Is it possible that they've repped the VC Tour de I'lle?? Now for only $235.00??

Too good to be true!

Smells like a fake, buddy

Yeah, probably a picture of a Gen.....beautiful watch though.

Impossible : no Asian movement can mimic these complications. And yes, they show a gen Tourbillon. Asian working tourbis don't cost under 400 USD. Scam all the way. An other candidate for Fakeys list

Yes, that's the Gen. I hate places that would tell you this is the actual watch and it's clearly the original.

That site is clearly a scam site, notice that they are almost all gen pics. Come on mate you should know better after being here for 3 years now. =(

The Tour de I'lle will never ever be replicated properly anyways [if they bother to try], it's way too complicated.

Well, they did a pretty good job replicating the PP Skymoon. Maybe not as close but pretty decent, won't you say??

 

[guanaco]

When I said that I meant the fact you were visiting a scam site. I know about the Sky-Moon, that's why I said it will not be replicated properly if they even bother to do it. It's a shame we will never see good reps of these watches.

 

[fakemaster]

The problem with the Skymoon isn't the replication which isn't that good. It is the fact the watch costs two million and there are only two made per year. So if you think you can pull that off good luck.

Seriously, if you're looking for a reasonably credible, reliable, and functional Patek Philippe, Vacheron Constantin, or Audemars Piguet replica, you should stick with simple two or three hand watches, or maybe the chronographs based on the Seagull ST19 movement. There are also the real tourbillons, but they'll all essentially fantasy models (but could be quite nice in their own right).

Look at my signature for a discussion of some of the nicer ones to look at.
