[CONSENSUAL LIST] Super Reps NWBIGs
- Thread starter Omagad
- Start date
Apologies if it's been asked before (or if it's a dumb question lmao), but I couldn't find any info. When it comes to determining NWBIG, how big of a factor is aesthetics as opposed to the actual movement. e.g. for the Seamaster Diver, what classification would it come under in the NWBIG categories if it looked gen but was unidirectional winding as opposed to bidirectional?
Yep at the bottom to tell you not to buy as it's not considered NWBIG due to dial . I was always surprised they didn't update dial , as the original gen BB had an ETA movement as does the rep.
I think that’s a good question, unlike the other guy who asked where to buy them . I’m guessing here but it would be asthetics first, then movement functioning as original, the weight all the fine details, I believe the movement would have to function as original and resemble it, reason why most of these watches have minimal complications. More complications more money

Bezel colors are totally wrong. Batman is the better rep of the two I would say

Most Patek’s have a display or exposed movement. They want the buyer to see how finished the movement is . No rep is going to equal the movement finish. The rep movement finish will look very good until you look at it with a loupe.
Hes right, the better the Finish, the more complications the near imposible it is to replicate. Which is why you don’t see patek much or grand seiko, or vacheron, most ap’s are off. You do however see alot of Rolex’s and Panerai, given their more popular- their less complicated so it’s a win win for rep makers, take a Rolex gmt, it’ll function as original and Be 95% corect like the worst thing taht would be off would be a bezel color or datewheel font. Rolex didn’t even use in-house movements until the mid 90s I believe. Not a watchmaker so feel free to correct me
Tchnically, until 2004 when rolex bought 100% of Aegler movement manufacturer. But rolex had had big stakes in the company as far back as 1919. Nevertheless, some of Rolex most famous models were powered by reworked outsourced movements, one of the most famous examples being the Zenith El Primero movement in the late 80's Daytona.
It’s been updated a few weeks ago. There weren’t any new models released in that time and not enough time to judge on some of the improved ones. However there aren’t any contenders as of late.
Hello ladies and gents. i am looking for the 114300 904L SS/SS Grape ARF but apparently no TD have (meaning that the factory is no more making it?)

I have buyed other replicas before... first time picking a watch with this shortage issue..

With money!!
Jk. How did you find this list, if not thru another forum or Reddit group?
It's still on the list, all the way at the bottom.
Thank you for the updated list!! #notallheroswearcape
looking to pick a Panari watch from the list, but most of the watches you listed has three digits and most of the pan watches on TD website (jtime) has four digit. Am I correct to just at 1 in front of your PAM ref numbers?
