Hello,
I am very new to reps.

I've had an Explorer II 16570 Polar, but recently let it go to help support family after COVID shut downs.

Looking an Explorer I, I am in Canada, is intime05 safe to purchase from and can you please recommend a very good version to try out?
The BP 2836 is a good start. I found the ARF 3132 have the most gen feel but the price difference makes the BP a better buy.

Any of the TDs here would be good (check their individual pages for updated websites).

I personally buy from TSWatch, though they are not a TD here.

Thanks.

Are any dealers based in US for easier shipping to Canada?

I just sent payment to Sead for the BP version, can't wait!
I wonder how long the process will take.

I just sold my Gen Rolex Explorer II 16570 Polar dial to help my fathers in laws boxing gym that closed down during COVID, so I need a cheap (relatively cheaper in Rolex terms) new watch fix.

Does anyone know if there is a good rep of the 36mm explorer?

Please feel free folks to keep posting photos! I want to see what SEL examples folks are getting...

Got my QC photos so want to get a feel of what mine are like in relation to others.

I got the lume shot. It looks good, albeit a little blurry, but the right color. I asked for a photo on a timegrapher.

If you don't mind, could you please tell me how much Sead charges? You can pm if you like, and also what does he charge for the Noob version?

Sorry to be a bother

Ordered a BP 904 A2824 ver. on Saturday, got QC pics on Sunday - but the "3" looks pretty crooked to me, so rejected.

Hi, I got this gift from a dear person. Just wanted to ask as you guys look really passionate on the explorer 1. Does this look like a genuine model or you'd need more pics in order to tell?!
Thanks!

I always assume these guys are actually saying "I just bought a rep and I'm wondering if you guys think I can fool people that its real"

If someone gives me a watch I'm going to assume its real. Is giving rep watches as gifts even a thing!?!?! I guess if its a fellow rep watch enthusiast but I'm not going to buy my mom a fake rollie for Mother's Day!!! lol

I've been debating between the BP and the ARF, mostly because I'm an ARF fanboy because of their bracelets. But seeing the difference in price vs buying an ARF bracelet later if I really feel I needed to I was ready to place my order on the BP.

Then I see that the Noob is only $258 with the 2824 movement. $100 less than the BP....

To save me rereading the last 9 pages can anyone tell me the good and bad on the Noob 214270?
