HI everyone!

I read this thread but my ideas are more confused than the moment when I start to read :wowa:

So.. can anyone help me to search the rep 35 mm with dial with less flaws? lot of you say that 3k is the best.. other say that's GF... but not being there comparision... it's more difficult to me take a decision.

thanks to all.

Same here, the thread is long and actually confusing to find out what actually the bet rep available today...

As shown earlier in this thread, 3KF is using a different date font for the gold models than the others. Not sure why, as it doesn't appear to match gen.

Looks the business! Is the strap from 3kf aswell or aftermarket? Looking to pick one up for my 35mm.

Rep strap from 3KF. Not the best, but not awful. Won’t last long tho, seems to already crack close to the insert

Lol - the dial is spotless and brand new. What you see are tiny debris/hairs from the velvet protection case. Didn’t have my blower in hand to clean it before the picture

Hey all! I have been planning on buying a rep 35mm Santos for quite a while now and have been following the thread accordingly. I understand the consensus to be that the (new) 3KF seems to be the best one out there. Is that correct?
I mainly was wondering now where to purchase. On Puretime there is no 35mm with steel bracelet from 3KF unforunately and I cannot find a link with Saed from Supermirrors. Are orders made via e-mail with him?
Thank you so much for you support!
