The EW is quite a rough manual wind and the crystal could do with improvement. It is however ok for the price.The TW and EW (RIP) versions are good enough anyways....
Any TD. Just go and ask. TD is a cool term that was invented by the RWI Gods to mean Trusted Dealer. So ones we can trust lol. Pick the one you likeHi guys, which is the best TD to get of these?
Best fo the best of the best of the best sir. Right now those are your options for the current best. If you truly want the best contact your Rolex Dealer and get a gen. As of right now Clean or VSF dont have this model to order. In reality this look good for what it is. And no one will be able to tell on your wrist.When it comes to Reps I've always try to find the best of the best . Do you think the TW makes the cut Hont can get them or should I wait for clean or VSF ??? Thanks
It´s beautiful but they have massive problems with the screws on the bracelet. So if you have to remove some links I wouldn´t recommend TW+.TW is a beautiful watch but unfortunately too small for me!
probably we need to use screwdriver with correct length and width so that the force applied is perfectIt´s beautiful but they have massive problems with the screws on the bracelet. So if you have to remove some links I wouldn´t recommend TW+.
I used a 1.6 T-Blade ... when the screws "weld" into the thread it becomes nasty ;-)probably we need to use screwdriver with correct length and width so that the force applied is perfect
guys, any idea what's the proper length and width?
Hair dryer enough, or you taking a heat gun?EWF had the same issue, heat helps a lot.
Hair dryer wont do it, I usually use a butane torch.Hair dryer enough, or you taking a heat gun?
Yes, the factories usually applied Loctite on the threads of the bracelet screwsHair dryer wont do it, I usually use a butane torch.
I do dream of getting one of these though.

I tried a $100K GP watch constant escapement yesterday and it was made out of titanium, it was so light one would almost forget that you have it on. Such a beautiful watch but amazingly light.I've had mine for ages now. It's a good rep I think. Yes the screws are a PIA, but it's not because it's badly made, it's just the glue.
One thing I will say though is that I struggle to wear it that often because it's so light that it feels fake! Obviously I'd have the same issue with the Gen, but it's something to bear in mind. If you inadvertently associate solidness/weight with quality, as I clearly do subconsciously, be aware that it's something that stops me reaching for the watch as frequently as I would otherwise do.
I tried titanium Octo Finissimo in Bulgari boutique, felt like weightless...I tried a $100K GP watch constant escapement yesterday and it was made out of titanium, it was so light one would almost forget that you have it on. Such a beautiful watch but amazingly light.
