Thank you Yes the strap it came on was truly dreadful. It was calf leather but inside it said "genuine Alligator" Possibly the most awefull strap I have seen. I put it on the only spare 24x20 mm strap i had which is a Vietnam made gator strap of mediocre quality. I will buy a better one .

Hi,
Dose the strap 24x20mm or 22x20mm. Thousand thank if you can check that because I want to pay a genuin 22x20 one for 400usd.

I really like that watch with your blue strap.
Any strap makers you can recommend?

the camillefournet website no longer has 22x20. The largest they have is 22x18. And no blue in the same range as yours

2 The second dial is set a good bit lower

Thank you for the review. The blue dial looks stunning. How does second dial looks in real life as you mentioned it sits little lower. If possible, can you please share the closer wrist shots of second dial.

Are there multiple factories that make these or just one? I want to make sure I get a good one from Trusty, I heard they can be hit or miss.

For the Tribute duoface, just this one factory.

And you are right, it's hit or miss. The one I got had a bent backplate and poorly fitting reversing mechanism.

And who is your TD ?

Lucy. The wait is very long due to her process. The frustration is gone when you open the little brown box and see the best Rep possible. New members don't have the patience to wait 8-10 weeks because the watch was returned to the factory 3 times or is out of stock while we wait for another batch. It took me a while to accept the long wait vs a poor quality Rep. My Reverso was fast at 4 weeks.

Hello everyone,

This is my first rep and it just arrived yesterday! I am happy with the looks of it but it seems that the watch will not work for more than an hour at a time, is there something I am doing wrong and/or can anyone recommend a rep friendly place to have the watch serviced?

Thanks!

Might be a challenge to find someone to work on such an odd movement. Mine runs great, I am sorry you drew short straw in the rep factory quality control lottery sweepstakes.

Maybe sell on m2m at a discount? Get another one?

So the second face dials aren’t moving anymore either. I’ve reached out to my TD, hopefully we can work something out.
