thanks man.. gold or ss is definitely a tough choice.. I held the gen gold version and it was awesome.. I wanted something I could wear more than a few times a year, so I made it the most casual combo... steel with a brown strap.. Gold with a brown strap or black strap I would almost only wear during occasions.

Well, there you go, bud!! That's quite the impressive piece right there! I wonder what the Swiss Watch Federation would say if they held one of these sons of bitches in their hands! I don't know, but they might be starting to get a little nervous, with regard to the success of the future Chinese luxury watch industry.

Chinese movements have taken out many awards in the past for innovation. The Swiss have a habit of getting rather upset about it too, often challenging the decision to recognise them with such accolades.

Thanks again for the info
Have to say it's been a long time since I was anyone's first LOL :notworthy:

GREAT! Am I in love?
Whats your wrist size?
I am 6.5"! it sits just like a typical 42mm (eg. JLC NSD, Breitling abyss 42)
So (uhem), now that we in here know the truth about the movement in this beast of a rep, maybe we can, you know, keep that news from carelessly spreading too far out there, and into other threads? Right? We just don't want it to sell out or anything...
before I can get one.

OK OK, I am ordering one, hahaha
cwazy1, How did you managed to find the movement model and manufacture?

are you talking about on the gen or the rep?
the rep has a shanghai H23 automatic tourbillon movement.

Cwazy, brother, I'm a little worried that you might be spending a little too much time alone, and might not be getting out of your room enough there.
Ah, who am I kidding. I'd actually be so in love if I had that piece in my collection that I probably wouldn't leave my room either!
Yeah, right! by far the best guilloche dial I've ever seen... it makes the AP dials look amateur
