Hey guys/gals! I'm new to the forums but have browsed for hours upon hours. I went to my local jeweler as well as looked at several gray market sites but refuse to spend the money on a Gen. I have my heart set on the Tag Heuer Link Model #CAT2017.BA0952. My second option would be the #CAT2010.BA0952. In your opinion/experience, who makes the most authentic looking 1:1 rep? Any noticeable or very slight differences? I have looked at two of your TD's but not sure of the QC of the reps.
Also looking for any additional feedback regarding the SLR 300 Model# CAR2112.FC6267 Rep.

they do make them , the problem is most of them have flaws , your best bet is either find a used gen on the bay (i bought TAG used on the bay for over 50% of the price when it was new) or get whatever one you like the look of .. becuase iirc the link isnt a well repped watch at all

Thank you for the reply. I've looked there as well but worried I'm actually buying a rep at ten prices. If anyone has owned either of these watches please chime in as well.

As far as I know, the CAT2017.BA0952 with grey dial has not been replicated. Too bad, because it's my favorite as well. I own the replica CAT2010.BA0952 as well as several gen Tag Heuers (including an older version of Link chronograph) and my opinion is that the CAT2010.BA0952 actually is really well made. The font on the Tachymetre is a bit off, numbers are a bit thinner. But other that there are not any glaring flaws. The bracelet (which is a big part of the whole link-thing) is also really nice. I got mine from Intime, but I think it's the same version out there on the other TD's.

I agree with the post above to search for a used one. They come up every so often and the prices are very reasonable for the link series. Keep an eye out in watchrecon and be patient for the right deal.
