Thanks for the info..

Hi everyone - first post for me and new to the rep world. Started looking at reps as been on a wait list for a Daytona for 6 years and a bit fed up now, so looking to find a good one to tide me over. Have a few Gen watches (Rolex, Tag, Tissot, Gucci) and one rep (a dodgy Navitimer bought in Bangkok - but still going after 4 years). Great info so far on the site so thanks to all those who have contributed as it certainly helps people like me.

Welcome aboard.

You have lot's of patience to be on a wait list for a rep daytona for 6 years. Who is the rep watch site that you are on the wait list for 6 year's?

It doesn't take long for him to appear in any thread, ever.

Welcome. 6 years? To pay how much for a Daytona? That's rich, and I don't mean monetarily.

No they don't. The more you guys recommend people to buy shoddy POS seconds at 6 7750s the more the factories make. It's a bad movement, bad investment and bad advice. The Daytona is just a difficult watch to live with no matter what approach you take, gen, rep, etc..

I have been waiting for my 2 AD's to get one in , as well as for my turn on the list and would pay RRP, but wont pay over the list out of principle - after all its a desire not a must.

Been looking at a few of the TD sites on here and as I said in my first post, the info available on the forum is certainly invaluable (once i've managed to skim through all the general abuse given to many of the newbies after they have asked the usual honest questions :)). I will keep on with the due diligence.....
