how long has your pam rep lasted

I've still got my first rep, a fantasy PAM I got for $30 in Thailand almost 9 years ago. I wore it almost everyday for the 6 years before I found the watch forums. I don't wear it anymore but it starts right up with a little shake.
Replica durability..........
OK guys, we all know by now that if you get a rep with a GENUINE NEW SWISS MADE ETA movement, with proper care and maintenance service AND if it is ENCASED in a very well made Replica case, sealed from the elements, the damn thing will outlast you. You'll grow a very long beard before it even whimpers a bit. All of the above mentioned factors have to be present. All of them. Other than that, well, you only have to blame yourself, and you know it, why did you buy the cheaper version/movement, and now, well? Get the best most proven design on anything, and life is good. Best regards. :cheers:

It doesn't have to fit with a gen swiss made movement to last, asian movement is very durable and robust too, with some proper care and servicing once every few years and it can last you as long as you can remember.
