Who has the best AP RO?

[gapple]

Which Trusted Dealer has the best (closest to gen, of course) AP RO? I am interested in getting a 39 mm SS AP RO with a black or blue dial with a secondhand.

Our dealers have some. Some have a double deployment clasp, some triple. Some solid caseback, some not.

Does anybody have any experience with these? I'd rather not just buy one and hope it looks right when I get it.

I bought a TT last year and I always felt that the clasp was a bit narrower than the gen clasp.

Do you guys have any feedback? Who has the best AP RO?

um, all of the dealers get the same watches more or less.
they don't all post everything on their own respective sites, that would take
them way too much time. so it may look like each dealer has a different
stock of watches, but they don't. there's only a certain number of factories,
and a certain number of wholesalers, and all of the dealers go to the same ones.

so your best bet is to pick the dealer you like the best, the one you feel most
comfortable with, and then ask them to "source" the "perfect" one for you. as
of late is seems Lay from ReplicaMake is stealing the spotlight in terms of the
best customer service available, maybe you should try him.

There are at least two sources: MBW (Nariika) or Cartel (most of the other dealers) WM9 also made some but has stopped now.

There is quite some debate as to which is the better one, and personally I am not sure.

The models may vary a bit between the various sources, so perhaps you should decide which model and at what price you would be happy.

Rolexfinder from RWG. MBW/MBK version.

I'm about to get one.

PM me if you want more details.

Nariika is over there now and he also has access to them. I don't know if his are solid caseback or not. Since they are both MBK I assume this one is solid also.

He's over there now on a shopping spree. Ping him. He'll tell you.

His version has the gold screws.
