Reps are never perfect. Kind the first rule of repdom.
They all have flaws. The flaws we will and won't accept are the deciding factors in which itteretion of a particular watch we choose to buy.
Take for example a Sub. Some ( like me ) must have the keyless running the right way.
Some ( not like me ) are obsessed with a perfect SEL
Others get off on perfect CG . Some people lament that the watch would be perfect, if only it was brushed as gen .
Some won't buy anything with a cyclops, till they get the AR right.
There are however for most of us certain thing we just will not have in any rep.
Mine are
Any visible movement with glued on added wheels which don't function, and usually aren't even straight
Subdials which are present but do not function
Moonphase dials which just tell night or day
Gold plate , or so called Wrapped. Always light as a feather and usually completely the wrong colour
Gold hall marks on a clearly SS watch
That's my no no list
Whats yours ?
