Hi from Italy

[Rockrider63]

Dear all,

I'm new on the forum. I own mostly Japanese mid price Gen watche such Seiko Citizen, some vintage, microbrands and one 90s GEN datejust.
I own also 2 "reps": an Explorer I and a 116713 but I did not wear them because they are not of high quality (no lume numbers on the Explorer, yellow numbers on the bezel of the GMT instead of gold plate)
I discovered the forum years ago but only now I decided to subscribe and to purchase the replica.
A friend of mine wants a super clone of GMT master batman, he was about to buy it from facebook pages or other sources that certainly have no security, I explained to him about the forum and I will take care of the matter for him.
However, I have the desire to buy and test, I would like a PAM 1312.
I prefer old manual winding pams but after research in trusted dealers I found that the 1312 is a good rep for those who want a classic luminor.
I was still impressed by the culture and technical content of this forum, I saw the great PAM guide, congratulations indeed.
Now I will review the last things and I will make my first order from a TD with these two watches.
I have already read the various things to know before ordering and how it all works (take contact information only from the forum, how QC works etc)
Forgive me for being curious, I do not understand why there are no good reps of the moonwatch, it is such a popular watch. Simple curiosity
Thanks

Hi and welcome to RWI! Glad you found your way here.

As for the moonwatch, the answer is simple, there is no rep movement that replicates the right distance between the subdials. So they're more far apart than on the gen. Simple as that.

Please take some time to read the sticky threads in the new members area (all subsections), learn the basic forum rules and get some very good advice in the process. A number of questions has already been answered there, this is just an example:

Quick links to some of the more prevalent rules of the forum.

Another good thread to read to understand where RWI comes from and some fundamentals is this:

Most of the information you need to know to start is there. If you're preparing to buy, read the stickies before ordering. When you're finished, you can continue learning by reading the stickies in all remaining sections. If it's stickied, it's important information.

If you intend to sell, read the sales rules and all stickies in the sales section with particular care and make sure you understand each single rule. Sales rules infraction is taken very seriously here. As a new member you are not eligible to sell. Using the sales section is a privilege, eligibility must be earned, make sure you know and understand how.
