Rep scene aint the same no more

[Ibcarpro]

Just when I thought rep prices were getting too high Marvellous replica is selling VSF omegas for 255
Panerai can be found for 350ish in some places

We have thin clone Daytonas and thin fly back AP chronos

No real need to upgrade crystals, no delaminating AR coatings, moments that can take gen date wheels instead of overlays

I want to agree with the OP, I do wish they would rep different companies. But for example they made a Breguet Marine a month or two ago and I haven’t seen anyone buy one.
Since then I’ve probably bought two Rolex, a breitling , an AP, Tudor but no Breguet marine
So I can’t really complain, I’m buying the same big brands and not putting my money where my mouth is.

Who does the thin fly back AP chronograph? I havent seen a functional one but I admit I’m very new to reps, thanks

@MESSI I absolutely agree but ...

... this is exactly what I am talking about. There are for example many TAG Heuer Reps on the market, many of them with (stated) SW200 movements but you wont find them at the TDs and you wont find much info about them here in the TAG-section too. Why? Because they are so bad? Or because most of us are only interested in Rolex and the typical rich men brands? I suspect the latter.

Here is a spreadsheet from a Non-TD with the "available" models ... i dont know if they all are really available ;-)

Hi, where could i find this dealer?

Ask your TD

My experience is as described here.

Anything out of the ordinary Rolex takes a long time to source at regular TDs.

I had to go to non TDs to get some of these harder to source models. They just have too much money coming in from higher end reps, to worry about the 200€ Tag that isn't in their inventory.

The Tag Heuer list previously shown was shared in this same forum by me, and it is inadmissible that a rookie to this world, like I am, has to share this type of knowledge here, instead of the veterans and dealers themselves.

I really wish there were more resources here, I saw the other day a Omega Constellation Pie Pan rep on Reddit. Haven't been able to find it anywhere.

Frowning upon nonTDs in RWI (like I was shut down on nonTD section) doesn't help at discovering new information either. Most of these TDs are accostumed to what they sell, they won't look outside their world unless they have to.

The Pie Pan Constellation isn't a premade rep you can find, they're usually sold in kits and you buy the movement, though it is a bit harder to find these watch making kits now.

True that.
