Seconds hand issue is related to the movement. Asian ETA clone is the option to go for.

ah so just dont buy the 21j?

i just bought a seadweller with 21j and it seems to have this stuttering movement... very annoying.
might have to get rid of it.

Yup. The milgauss seconds hand is heavier than other watches so based on what I've read it's a complete no go if you want smooth seconds hand.

a noob question here, is it possible to swap the 21J movement and replace it with a more powerful sweeping movement?

Wich do you think is the dealer (or dealers) with deliver BEST quality rep watches?
I red reviews and expericens about many TD and i'm so confused.

I'm also confused about water resistence. Puretime says their Milgauss PVD are 50mt waterproof but it's the 1st time i hear about a "waterproof" rep. I always tought you can't have much than a shower with a rep watch.

Dealers almost get the same watches that other TD can, so just choose the TD that you like to deal with, send them a mail with a picture of this watch attach and they will let you know whether it is available or not.

As for the water proof/watch resistant stated on dealer website, it is the same as they stated 1:1 rep, it is more of a sales technique so don't take it too seriously until you have the watch tested by a watch technician regarding the WR.

Yes, definitely don't let any water get near it until it's been tested/sealed.

Unfortunately, as Rolex is the only company that has control over the factory that produces the green crystals, the reps aren't really close to gen so it's best to purchase the blackdial without green crystal. Just my 2 cents

I'm also wondering the same. I've read so much, but still am lost on where/what to buy.

I like the green crystal, but if it still hasn't been mastered and looks fake, I'd prefer it to be without.

Bumping an old thread here.

Hey guys, new to the world of replica watches. Had saved up a bit to buy a Vostok, but spending some time on google decided to opt for a replica.

I want to get a black Milgauss 116400. However, found that the following two movements:

1) Asian 2836 - http://puretime.co/product/milgauss-116400-gv-pro-hunter-edition/

2) Japanese Miyota - http://www.perfectwatches.hk/rolex-milgauss-pro-hunter-tinted-green-saphire-black-dial.html

The price difference between the two is around $60. Wanted to know which would be a better choice ?

Would appreciate some help choosing between the two.

Since the second one is not a trusted dealer there's only one option. Have you read through the milgauss sticky at the top of the rolex section? Plenty of good information and threads there.

Thanks a lot for the replies ! Appreciate the help. @Bonesey, I didn't spot the Milgauss sticky thread. I missed it as I just read the Explorer bit. Quite a helpful thread. @ALE, thanks for the link mate.

I would go for the 2836.

Sid always choose a TD as your dealer and always choose 2836 over quartz....
