Hoestly if you like rm design go with zf, if you want a super clone hold off 100%.

The current risk with the rmul clone isn't worth it. I enjoyed my zf v2 yas marina, but then I got into ap divers and carbon rolexes. The rm reps by zf are light as fuck
I just want the look man, it's youthful and summer fun. It's all the fun of a ceramic AP Perpetual without all that extra complexity. I really liked the idea of a moving balance but it is nothing compared to the need for functionality in my eyes. Not worth the gamble until it is up to 3120, 324SC clone standards AT LEAST.

Yes, thats why my $700 wasted there...
So sorry you lost money on being a GP. Your service is appreciated greatly 🙏 I was honestly willing to take shitty case and everything over ZF (BBR) if the balance moved and there was at least 70% reliability not 70% failure. You guys are all saving me hard earned money. Thank you all.

Zf v2 yas marina, zf v3 raf nadal. I preferred the yas due to the nptp design and how slim it was.

I was looking at the 055 and the 35-02 , those so far are my fav. I think I was looking at the v5 it is the newest ZF that is 13.9mm and no stuttering seconds. I'll have to type in a review. It seems like the ZF 055 has been well reviewed so I will check some of those out as well. Thank you for your help.

Also, if you don't know I understand but I'm curious about the reliability of tourbillion movements in replica watches in general, AP and RM specifically. Heard that rep facts can't "clone" tourbillions so they buy them from SeaGull and that they are actually good tourbillions. I would like to know definitely as that's another avenue I can explore for an RM possibly.

I was only around during the v3.

SeaGull movements are good from what I've heard, but I don't keep tabs on them. I look more at ap diver/ ap dress and Rolex movements.

Do you recommend the ZF V3 it seems like it's readily available from my TD I should do some research on it as well. I just heard this and that that the v3 is no and v4 is yes because of case.

You have a good taste in watches, this is what I am working with so far I think you'll like some of my stuff.

That looks like a new movement not based on a gen Vaucher as the crazy expensive ones, nice news.

I think once all is said and done, with some mods and upgraded straps I could have a SERIOUS collection on my hands. I tried to pick everything that is either revolutionary in our rep hobby or watches that will last literally forever like ETAs

The life raft was my first watch lol, I just put the oyster on it this week had the sandblasted Lego bracelet for a year before I found time lol. I think you meant to say the diamond encrusted shitter 3700! It's 42mm just like 3700 lol. That's what I call it anyway.

I saw this on insta as well. It doesn’t look like the one that’s going for crazy money. Maybe something new that falls in between. Thoughts?
In fact, the translation of the WeChat post said "RM Clone for very little money" I hope so
