Maaan… thats such a beautiful watch. As much as everyone on here (including myself) is in love with reps… the genuine watches will always be the cherry on top of the pie. Enjoy your watch, I wish you many many years full of joy with that batman bro

Thank you! I appreciate it. I love both reps and gens (reps way more carefree to wear). But gen is gen and does come with a little extra on top like you said. I won’t pay over retail but at retail it’s a sound and worthwhile purchase.

I guess depends on the person. Would of prefer brushed oyster to be honest but not gen spec

I think you can put a submariner bracelet on the GMT for that all brushed look. I actually agree it suits this watch better with its very sporty profile. Jubilee on this watch looks plain weird to me. To each their own though and it would be boring if we all liked the same thing!

How much you pay for youre bracelet?


Gesendet von iPhone mit Tapatalk
168 usd for the extra bracelet. Probably means I'm paying more than I would like to get my hands on a rep, but at least it gives me the option to choose between the 2 styles to change the look of the watch.

Count your blessing it’s not the $10,500 I paid for my gen 2021 Batman. I’m also counting my blessing I’m not paying $20k+ for it on the secondary market.

It’s all perspective but believe me when I tell you the $700 that you paid for your watch + extra bracelet is a steal for what you’re getting.

Hi, everyone, the only real problem is that CF has 3186 movements, which is only right for 116710 not for 126710. In fact, there is BATMAN 116710 but it is mistakenly called in a misreference. Am I right?

CF released 5 models, two of them are Batmans with oyster. One is a 116710, the other a 126710. Both have correct dial coronet(s). Only the 116710 has the correct 3186 movement engraving and direction of time setting and hour jumping. Only the 116710 has the correct hands size.

Even the VRF GMTs 126710 have the VR3185 (VR3186 is the updated one) really is not a big deal at all. Thats the best GMT movement reliable at the moment.

To me, what you really needed is a reliable movement inside the rep watch. What's the use of having the correct cal. engravings or even with the correct hand adjustment directions as per gen. if it dies in 2 months time leaving you with a piece of useless metal junk as paper weight.

+1. Its the same as the 3135s before VR and VS3135s were developed, most were leaning towards the 2836s and 2824s even with the opposite hand adjustments.

Exactly!!! Who gives a crap about the engravings or whatever on a closed caseback watch thats not going to fool anyone. We should be asking for a STABLE movement that actually keeps good time and functions well.

The look of the bezel and the entire quality of the watch build etc....is far far far more important than some decoration on movements that you cant see.
