So, Piaget spends multi-millions of dollars developing the worlds thinnest watch movement and you expect to find it in a $100 Chinese rep????
:frusty::frusty:

:picard::picard::picard::picard:

1. I did not say that I want a $100 cheap Chinese rep, I just asked if there were any reps of this watch.
2. There are reps of watches that are worth way more than this one. This watch is listed at $26,000. Take any true tourbillion, they are well over $100,000 and there are many reps, it is not that out there to think that they can and just might make a rep of this.

Thank poker and pyer for letting me know what you have found.

having the subdial in that position means a new movement. I haven't seen that movement before in reps

Probably just a gear train added to a simple 21J movement in order to move the running seconds location. If I'm right, I'd guesstimate a life-span of under 6 months.

That one doesn't look that bad :) Crystal looks like t have AR coating on it :)

Hey that's awesome!!!!!!!!

I've been meaning to lurk in PA website a bit more closely. Their general public website seems different than the App created for RWI. I can't seem to find these reps on their general website. All I see are no-name pos's

In defense of the first replica in the OP, while it isn't that accurate from the front, it at least has an interesting movement, which is a microrotor mechanical movement, and is very thin.

I have a Patek Philippe replica with the same microrotor movement, and it's just lots of fun to look at.

Piaget do make that model that is very similar to that and I am interested in that rep, just like the other one a more.

May I ask where you got this watch?
