Hi all ,not posted in a while but have decided I would like to have a go at building a rep.
Obviously I’ve taken a good look on Alibaba for the parts but I just can’t seem to find anybody who will supply the cases Dials and bracelets etc with the Rolex engraved rehaut ring and logo’s on the dials and bracelets etc.
Can anybody share a link to a seller on alibaba that does these items so I can buy the components to build a replica yacht master please?

In the vintage watches section there's plenty of advice for a build, just less probably a modern one, but still heaps of knowledge on how to build a watch from parts.
I can tag in @Geonor who's got an extensive experience in viable AliX sources.

Dials and hands here:


Bracelet:


Case I can't find sadly.

All that being said, you're probably better off buying a complete watch from a TD. Buying in parts is going to be more expensive and probably give you a lesser product. If you want to save some money, BP makes a decent one for ~300 bucks.

If you have an NH35 I would probably go the route of a vintage Explorer 1
