Noo... For that price it has to be automatic. Check the other sites the quartz version is cheaper than automatic

This is the watch that lead to me discovering the world of decent replicas, i was looking for the gen but ended up getting the carrera 17 ss quartz and gen.had gen and rep for a while-sold the rep to a work colleague and it's still going strong 2-3 years later,also had the quartz 36 pvd for a while-both great daily beaters and look great on the wrist

I got mine M2M also. Needed service and a band replacement. Mine is the PVD titanium version. Very light weight, all functions work as they should.

I bought it M2M last year needing service. I had it serviced and it runs well. Doesn't see any significant wrist time as i had to sort out the bracelet (the original one started to rip apart). I picked up one on eBay but the endlinks don't fit perfectly as the rep is about 1 mm thicker to accommodate the transfer module to move the subdials. If i keep it I'll have to contact a TD to obtain a replacement rep one. It's made of titanium so it's really light and has a nice wrist presence.

Isn't that a rubber strap? It's look like it. Sorry for my questions. But I'm new and learning. And I always loved the grand Carrera 36 but black one like you have. I think there's no black bracelet, would be too perfect ^^. BTW maybe can you enlighten me also, and tell me what's ss and pvd?

The black grand carrera rs comes in rubber strap per gen. I have the ss model and that black rs is rubber so is the gen. That is as good as it gets. Quality on the rs is awesome. Btw ss stands for stainless steel. Mine is on the first page of this thread :) pvd is a kind of coating. I believe the black is titanium as it is very light, but not too sure. Either way that is an awesome rep.

Yeh. Will do some research tomorrow and find a TD where I can purchase one. Need to look into the best replica version from which factory is it. I never purchased a replica, so I got a lot to study and analyze.
I want to know where I'm putting my money in

@POD Its a very very old watch now, so remember that you may be buying a new watch.. but that watch would have been assembled years ago and sat on a stock shelf for years, and with the last remaining stock items they usually have qc issues.

i wouldnt worry about which factory does the best version.. you might just have to take what you can get. your chances are slim, i have been asked to get one of those recently and they were discontinued.

That's bad news. In any case I'll see if one of the TD have one. I know it's an old watch but even so it's imo one of the most beautiful watches ever made. At least from the ones I know xD

^^^ true, the watch is a bit old rep and the ones sold are probably old stock. I might decide to sell mine to fund another watch... But still on the fence as I love this watch

Well, I really like the look of it. Since it's completely different than most watches. Also, saw it once in a store and liked it a lot.

Tags in general are a bit Marmite.. Although i do have 5, but some of their stuff is very questionable
