See my post above. 18 months, end of 2026, then double that period for good measure. Enjoy collecting and wearing the excellent reps that are currently available in the meantime ;)
i pray everyone can get the real deal by then, by saving money on reps until the time comes

The price of one my WeChat dealers is RMB 120k ($16,6k) with a platinum case and a clone movement.

Lower than my prediction of 20k a few pages back. Curious to see what dial will be used.

Anyone watching this thread and considering this build, I suggest you wait to let the Chinese market test it out before shooting on it.

The first gen ACE 240 was horribly unreliable!

Instant tell! The gen is white gold! How are they offering platinum? 🤔
it is often lost in translation. They confuse pt950 and WG.

if they put this much effort in the replication they will for sure get the metal right ;)

Yep, you're right. WeChat translated platinum, while DeepL does white gold 🤣. Here is the original text:

Well I did he say he was a billionaire, I didn't mention he was a billionaire that could fit several other billionaires net worth into his own 😅

so this thread ded? no updates nothing?
Well unless you have $20k to drop on a fake watch I'd suggest you just sit tight and let other people test it out for you instead

Patience comes to those who wait, updates will be posted here when we get it
