Hi,

I'm new to the forum, been reading reviews and threads like crazy since i have joined, PM'd a few members for info (all very helpful) and carefully decided to order an AP ROO rubberclad seconds@12 with a black face from Lay at replicamake.

Read excellent reviews about him and feel that my first rep purchase with him will go through flawlessly!

I have placed my order and am just waiting for a paypal ad for payment then i will hopefully be seeing some QC pics shortly!!!!

I was gonna go for the Rose gold, but decided against it in the end due to wanting a rep that will last with out having to get it re-plated.

Spoke with Lay before placing an order to confirm it will have the new movement with the added jewel at the problem gear, although i do understand it still may need a service after reading posts from the moders.

Hopefully this will be my first of many!!!!

Will post pics as they come.

Just received QC pics and video of the watch, bezel was slightly scratched and one bezel screw was not straight so they are ordering a replacement in for me :D

Alex,

Nice pick up. We'll all enjoy the photos when you post. I've been dreaming of the same watch since I joined earlier this year and just need to pull the trigger.

Hi Guys,

Got the QC pics for the replacement and it looks great, and it should be shipped out today or tomorrow!

Bezel Screws only need very slight adjustment but i'll do that when it gets here.

Just like to thank Lay at replicamake for a truly amazing transaction and i am thoroughly pleased with my watch! All the reviews about the date window and thickness of rear case are all hyped up, this is one serious rep!!!

One thing though, crown seems kind of hard to screw in, like its threaded or something... is that normal?
