Greetings fellow watchmen. Amazing forum, this.

I've finecombed the forum for thoughts on the Chanel J12 but found nothing. Anybody have any good pictures of replicas vs. gens? and some info to read about it. I'm especially interested in the one Chanel refers to as the "H0970".

Got one? PM me.

You can get a different insert if you aren't looking for the diamond look.

Yes look above almost all the dealers have them available. They have there flaws but they're pretty nice pieces.

And of course, you could easily go to the watch expert section, and send a message to each dealer, asking if they can get what you

wish.. send along a picture, and the size in mm

if they can they will

if they can't, they will tell you..

Hehe, I will tell my men to comb better.

Thanks a lot for your answers. Your right again Klink, I want, or rather my wife wants, it without glitter and gold. As ceramic as possible. Are the replicas also made from ceramic, btw?

What are the replicas' big differences from the real deal?

Quality (materials) vary with price

from reports, the lower cost items are quite acceptable

I've heard for the j12
The bracelet isn't great and feels somewhat cheap.
.. then again personally I think the rep looks pretty spot on.
everything has its faults if it didn't it would be a gen !

- I think you can go around <150 and fins a very acceptable rep of this watch.

There are several versions of the J12 out there. Make sure you get the one with the full ceramic band. There are some that a steel coated ceramic which aren't as nice. Think you will be looking at $160+ for the nice version. There is a "swiss movement" one, but since it's quartz anyway I don't think it's worth the extra $$$. I think you will be very happy with this watch. First women's rep which is really good.

Okidoki. I guess I'll ask he seller closely about the ceramic involved, then. Cheers!

I bought one for my wife for Christmas. Very-Very nice indeed. The dealers here can get them - the only thing i did not realize is the variety of ceramic quality there is. I just picked the most expensive one I could find. Not quite sure if that was the smartest idea in retrospect.
