Wowzer. That's pretty cool. I had a TV remote like that once - it had all the simple controls on big clear buttons on one side, then flip the unit inside the case and you got loads of tiny little buttons for doing complicated things.

I used to have a boat called Bagel. Luckily, it didn't have a hole in the middle. At least, not right through.

wow!!

that is gorgeous!!

velly good copy

Sorted.

Murtle how good are those copies... in other words, are they worth the $300?

I had a copy of Patek. And it was a proper replica. Well worth over £300.

Then there are some cheap knock off you can buy on the market in Bangkok for £5.

they look pretty good, there seems to be two types of movements, asian and swiss

uk

then again you pays for what you get

so you probably get a 300 buck watch, some seem to sell them with saphire cyrstals too

Do you get certification on the quality of the fake movement?

yes

but it's fake

You will have £3500 left for the repairs if needed :-)

17 dual movement? Um har.

Was talking to a fairly distant family member last week and he told me to check out his website. Hes a watch dealer, its awesome. http://www.watchguru.com/

speak to Mark (who rides the custom Demon bike). He put me on to an excellent source for copies that are in all the cases I saw identical to the 'badged' ones.
I'm starting to wonder what the point is to spending big money on a watch that has a label but isn't hand built or anything.
