RG i believe is some part of the watch movement.

Depends on content it is in. TC can be - terms and conditions or there was a gentlemen that was called TC who used to mod Rolex’s to make them closer to gen

or there was a gentlemen that was called TC who used to mod Rep. Rolex’s to make them closer to

gen(Genuine). Although he no longer makes them they sometimes come up for sale on M2M here or other watch sites. They usually demand a premium well over

the price of the rep watch.

Hope that helps. Mike r

What's TD? I know the "D" refers to dealer, and see people using GD for Gen Dealer, I believe. So what's the "T"?
Thanks.

TD = Trusted Dealer

Hi guys! I’m a noob here and I’ve been through the whole thread and couldn’t find the following:

ARF
VRF

I guess these are some rep factories right?

If, so which does the higher quality reps? ARF,VRF,BP or Noob?

Thanks in advance!

I would like to know this too. ARF? AR is anti reflective right but don’t know what ARF and VRF mean?

Opps sorry Glaude not OPP but OOP. I'm talking to one of the old timers here in a private message and he said this "custom built HBB-s from the OOP parts"
