Hi guys & gals.
I wanted any new advice or suggestions about who has had experience with the rep Grand Carrera Calibre 36 (blue face preferably).
•Does the second hand qualify as a "true sweeping motion" like a Rolex? I tried on a Gen today and it appeared to sweep, but at a closer look it had very fast and short ticks.. is that based on the movement used in the gen Grand Carrera "not being as High quality" as that of a Rollie?
?Which options of movement/version do you experts suggest that allows the sweeping motion?
I've decided that I'm prepared to pay higher necessary price points to get as close to the True gen as possible in one purchase attempt and then sit back and be content while I "ticker and slowly build up a "Frainkenwatch" on the cheap Omega Seamaster I bought from InTime.... It doesn't even have a Chrystal Face because I wanted to build on it utilizing the wealth of knowledge here at our forums on RWI.
?Below are attached photos I took of the Grand Carrera Calibre 36 today.. please check them out! Great blue hue and the back of the watch is favorite part of the watch as it shows the automatic movement (err, I think I'm using proper terminology
with a weight type part that swivels and that part rotates another mechanism seen through Chrystal on the back!!!! No one else sees it, but I'll know the awesomeness of it all day...

Thanks guys, I'd REALLY REALLY appreciate feedback so I can finally pull the trigger.... But then the real question comes to mind of which TD to choose!! As I've learned in the first day, CHOOSING THE CORRECT TD IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN CHOOSING THE SUPPOSED CORRECT REP TIMEPIECE.
