Hi,
Just received my QC Pics for Tag Carrera 1887:
http://s1117.beta.photobucket.com/user/Anish0802/library/tag

It is supposed to be a 1:1 replica, I have found that the tag logo and text carrera are not printed like the original, the Cal 1887 dial has a silver ring around it which the original does not and the white rings at the top and bottom dials seem a bit big.

What do you think? Am i being a bit critical? Have you noticed anything else? Would you go for it?

Thanks,
TagHopeful

1:1 replica??? do you REALLY believe that? The question is not if WE would go for it but will YOU go for it?? You are the one wearing it, it is your money so only you can decide. You can't depend on the forum to make your decisions for you.

If you like the model so much and don't mind the flaw then buy it.
To me it's not a 1:1 rep. The rotor may somewhat resemble the original but the movement itself is different.
If I have to choose a Tag watch, I would get the Links.

The logo looks a hair crooked. No one will ever notice but it shows up in photos.
I agree with others this is not a 1:1 but then again who cares. Tag has changed their watch designs so many times it is impossible to know whats real and fake in that line anymore.

This watch is not accurate at all.
I have the gen (V3) and there is a lot of mistakes on the rep.
