Currently on my wrist is an Omega PO rep from WBK, the el cheapo version (~ $110 in CONUS) on a WJean mesh bracelet (they run $60 on eBay). It's definitely my favorite combo for this model:
... what I'm wondering is, why do people choose to spend up to the far side of $1,000 on a franken build? I was considering it, but what would the additional $800 buy me, besides a slightly more accurate rep? Just seems like if you're gonna go that route, buy a used gen for a little more.
Does anyone else agree with me? Well under $200 for a decent rep seems like a good deal, and $800 more than a franken seems like a fair premium to step up to a gen, but that middle ground doesn't seem like much value for the $. Please feel free to rebuke my reasoning too if you don't agree.
