Updated Super Rep List?

Does anyone have an updated super rep list? I’ve found one on Reddit and one on this site but they both seem outdated; mentioning closed factories or things that I’ve read otherwise in the threads written more recently such as from version updates.

You can try to search for "consensual list", but I'm not sure how up-to-date that list is kept.

I’m looking for the PAM375 and Sky-Dweller. Looks like neither are being produced as high quality. Also insterested in Platona 116506 or 126505. I’ve seen mixed reviews about accuracy to gen. Mostly about dial color, correct hands, weight. Etc. Seems like everyone agrees that the SS Daytonas and about 3 of the subs are super reps.

Just my take on it, I’d rather have a model I like that is incredible quality than a model I love that is subpar.

That’s the list I was referring to on RWI but it looks to be about 12 years old

Buy what you like. Remember that 99% of people won't even know what you're wearing.

It’s not for other people, it’s for me. I really like the Patek Nautilus 5712 but the power reserve dial was fake. That would bother me. If I know something is inaccurate, it’s going to bother me. I’m probably going to go gen for the sky dweller but it’s like a 4 year wait. I love it, but I can’t go gen on all the models I like nor do I feel like playing the AD game

Huh? This is info is long outdated. Since V2 the PPF 5712 has a proper and functional PR, all complications work like the gen. I have the V2 and it’s a mind blowing watch.

Just read a bit in the AP section. Tons of info.

You have to look at the bottom right corner of the post to see when it was updated. I know for a fact that some additions were made within the last quarter/half year.

That’s great to know! Which factory do you have?

Wow, this brings back memories of trying to score a Chopard Mille Miglia GTXL “Super rep”. When there were only a handful 1:1 reps on the market. The quality of most of the new reps that come out of the td’s are miles ahead of what they were. Except for the “leather” or rubber straps. Some of those are still horrendous

As stated in my post above: PPF
It seems like the RG models still have the fake power reserve. The SS models are fully functional. I was looking at the RG with brown leather band

No matter of SS or RG: Same watch, same movement. Why should the PR not work on the RG model?

However, I’m not into RG models. So can you provide a link to the exact discussion where it was stated/confirmed please?

TDs are listing the PPF 5712 RG as V2 like the SS version: With all complications working properly, incl. PR.

Both have a problem with the auto winding. If you were being harsh, you could call them manual watches. Neither on the wrist nor in the watchwinder do they hold the PR, let alone wind themselves up.
