No do you know why? My neighbour has tons of money and he is clothing like a homeless guy because you know why? Because he doesn't care he have made his money he doesn't need to proof anything anymore.

So? That just proves exactly what I said. You bet he cares, just that the things that matter are different.

Who cares about what other people thinks about "your lifestyle"? I don't care what people think of me.
If you don't care what people think of you who did you choose the super awesome name "tigerdragon"? Why not "lily muffins "? Jk

I believeeeee that's because the actual stamp for these cases was backdoored out of the cartier case factory in china? I thought I heard that somewhere
Interesting!
Can you please elaborate more if you can? Thanks.

Pam 613 should be here, especially with a gen like strap mounted, like what @aalenkin has

I did some digging and I just can't find that exact thread anymore, this is the best I could do: https://forum.replica-watch.info/threads/intime-purchase.169188/.

I thought it was in one of PT's "Analysis of the Rep Industry" threads but alas, it wasn't. But it was the cartier santos 100, Richemont was making their cases in China and found out the factory was selling cases out the backdoor, which is why they were so perfect.

Gotta love this thread. It's gone off topic so many times, but by sheer dedication and/or miracle, finds its way back home again.

Carry on. [emoji106]

Thanks again for research. This is very interesting information. No wonder the ultimate Cartier Santos 100 looks so good!

It does! I'm not even that big into Cartier but it looks so sharp I've considered it

I believe that this model is also on the list. The Panerai 288. I don't believe that they are made anymore by the factories. Nevertheless, a very good out of the box gen-like rep.

Ofcourse buying/owning a gen grail is unbeatable but for the following watches I would never buy in gen.


Hardcore AP rep fans might disagree but I don't think this is worth buying in gen:

AP FC JF v5:






I know that "gen is gen" but I think PAM 087 H-fac is not worth buying in gen. ....the rep is stunning:

PAM 087 H-FAC


Here is my old TC v6 (v7 looks even better). Gen prices have recently gone through the roof! Therefore, I would never buy this in gen form:

TC 16610LV (KH dial, v2/3 hands):
