Living the rep world for many years every time I get a watch they will come out with another version
Now after getting SS RG and frosted the maker will release V2 double balance wheel upgrade and I have to go thru it all over again and buy the new version and sell off the previous version for a fraction of what I paid
Law of averages
I am still waiting on the affordable 5740 perpetual calendar that we were promised. The clone ACE movement costs $6k now.

Rep world isn’t fast enough for the time I have.

How about following the law of patience and discipline?
Gen or rep, these are unnecessary goods. *shrugs*

Don’t think it will come anytime soon or at all.
Free sprung is hard.

Is not insane
Profiteering is what they do, remember the 8k RM67 that is now 3k and soon to be bellow 1k

The Vaucher clones that were 30k now 13-17

Lovely in ceramic.
But I still think without that balance mod it’s useless
Regulator showing like that and no counterweights by itself is the main tell, even without going into discussion about the second balance wheel.

It’s great for the rep game that this exists, but not to be used between people that know gens or remotely try to use this watch as a story tell to impress the potential business partners, if they know they won’t fell for it and you will be a joke. (Everyone here does it so no need to be evasive about)

Watches with big tells like this and over the 80k mark will be desired, may be a picture in someone’s goals board and that guy looks at a gen every day wishing for one.

Maybe use the case to build a fantasy build with a dial etc ? To me more appealing and can use the beautiful ceramic case

DOOUBLE BALANCIER on the case back ? Typo?
i mean double has to have double the number of Os right?

Side note it's hilarious. I know we make fun of Chinese people but to them it's literally no meaning, it's just symbols

A lot of people don’t really care about passing these off as gen.

For the ones that do, if they have the lifestyle to pass it off as gen supporting the real price-tag, I’m sure they can afford to get the double-balance custom movement.
