hey there.

idolreplica's is one of Tony's site (not asian7750 Tony, different guy.)
the site he runs that people here know about is called Watcheden.

they are a "trusted" dealer here, watcheden is anyway, and you'll usually get
what's pictured and whatnot. you can never believe all they say though.

as for the 127.

well there were only 1950 of these watches ever made, but there's probably about
20,000 replicas of it already made and more coming soon. It's a very rare genuine
watch and fairly common replica watch, but none the less it is stunning.

it's big, beware. it's 47mm before the crownguard, which is big too.
so anyway, about the replicas and their versions and such:

I'm going to make this very, very simple for you:

there was every previous version of this watch, and then there was the current one.

all previous versions, including the one you linked to probably (not clicking), are
well below current standards. recently a version was put out by the noobfactory
that is very nice. It sold out, more were made with bad crystals, then they sold
out again.

we are awaiting the new batch to come any time now with the new good crystals.
I would wait until that happens before you buy any 127.

when it happens, buy it from a trusted dealer from this forum.

You want the latest version of the 127 from the "n" or "noob" factory. Check out this guide compiled by RWI's own, ALE -------------> http://forum.replica-watch.info/vb/showthread.php/reference-pam-review-107365

As far as which dealer to choose, if the watch is available, pretty much any TD here can get it for you. However, I think the 127 Noob is pretty hard to get right now.

Also, idolreplicas is one of WatchEden's sites. WE is a TD here. Although, there are many other TDs to choose from.

I've been after a Noob 127 for ages but all TD's don't have any and it's been like that for months.

I'm desperately waiting for the new batch to hit the market.

Get in touch with Torobravo and Sead, they (and Puretime, but PT is a larger organization...) are in very good connection with noobfactory and do follow up backorders pretty well.

You want the Asian movement not Swiss on this rep if buying the noob version

Genuine Swiss eta does not mean the same eta movement Panerai used for this watch

As stated expect to pay and wait as they are currently back ordered

Also in addition to their being 50 to 1 reps to gen in the world
The gen is 10 plus years old, the reps look brand new
If you owned a gen that was in new condition you likely would keep it in a safe and buy a noob rep to wear, lol

yes, it's out of stock and will be for a bit.

either you wait, or you get a crappier version, your call.

Angus said yesterday that he hopes it's soon, but has no real idea.
Neither does the noobfactory apparently. they're waiting on crystals, so when
they show up, it goes out. when will that be? no idea.

they know the demand is very high, and they are trying to make that money,
trust me, just nothing can be done right now with those crap crystals.

I wonder if they have improved the crystal, I believe the last batch was a crap shot

I was wondering the same problem too so i take a look at the TW super top best:lol1: website as he have update the latest 127 pics and i feel that it does look better.

Hoping to see some pic from our TD soon.

Yeah he is :bsmeter: He have mod the incabloc for his 127 so i thought it might be recent version of 127.

I believe for this model, we will see the photos of the latest batch from members here soon. Hopefully all is well for this batch.:thumbsup:

Genuine uses a Swiss 6497-2
This ETA is not sold to the public so it is very rare and will run $800 or so just for the basic movement if you can find one
Rep factories cannot buy them in bulk

Swiss eta reps use the more commonly available 6497-1
There are visual differences between the two, mainly the shock system

The Asian movement is a copy of the 6497-2

Visually the Asian is more accurate to the gen for this reason
The Swiss might be more reliable but not as visually accurate to the gen

Neither option is without visible flaws if you know what to look for
