REPLICA EBEL & ROLEX WATCHES


COOPER&BURNETT

Recommended Posts

Anyone got a line on any good quality EBEL watches?Obviously, I'm looking for the same style EBEL watches as crockett wore on the show. I'm going blind searching the internet. I find lots of EBEL and ROLEX replicas, the trick is finding the SAME style watches as on the show. I already have the replica presidential ROLEX, now I want the season 3 and 4 EBEL watches.There are replica watches watchdog websites that let you know which sites are scams and which are not. BUYER BEWARE!Asian replicas are the worst.Japanese replicas are not very good.Italian quality is very good quality.Swiss is the finest, and goes up to higher swiss grades from there.Anyone find any exact style vice style EBEL watches?Eingefügtes BildSeason 3Eingefügtes BildEingefügtes Bild

No' date=' but I looked for a long time too last year. No luck on Sonny's Ebel watch. :thumbsdown:[/quote']I found one 1911 chronograph that looked right, but didn't have the gold band. I guess one could buy a second watch that had a gold band like the classic wave from season 3, but it would have to have the same 40mm case, and you'd have to buy another watch.I found one with a gold band that looked right, but it's only available in stainless.

Hey Coop. I have been looking for almost three years now and can't find one like the picture you once posted on that other site.I have searched high and low and spent hours on the internet........nothing.There is one jeweler here in Toronto that carries Ebel, but obviously they are all new models. Quite frankly they are VERY UGLY watches????I do however own a gold Rolex like the one that Sonny wore in season one, and I treasure it.

The ones that SONNY wore are pretty slick though.I found one ebel replica that has a leather strap that looks good, but it would need a gold bracelet.So I see I'm not the only one looking for these watches!

This one from season 3 is nice. It has a classic wave style bracelet.Eingefügtes BildI'd also like to have this one. Eingefügtes BildThere are replicas of this one with a leather band. If you can replace the band with a gold band, you'd be in business.Eingefügtes BildThose are the real deals, now for some replicas that are still NOT the same as Crocdkett wore. You will notice that wrist bands, and faces may be similar, or have certain features, but none have been found that are exact copies (yet these replicas ARE copies of real ebels that exist, these don't claim to be copies of the type Crockett wore.)Eingefügtes BildEingefügtes BildEingefügtes BildEingefügtes Bild

I agree Coop. The one with the gold and silver band (the first pic) is the nicest I think. It looks very close to the one Sonny wore and it would be cool to find a replica maker of that one.The others with the leather straps are not my taste line. I think the faces are also not very retro, if you know what I mean?I also am not a fan of clutter. I looked at an aviation watch at the Casino a few months ago that does everything my pilots calulator does, such as fuel estimation and weight calculations, and even navigation. You need nimble fingers to operate it or a sharp pencil... and a good memory to understand all the stupic buttons and dials! The watch came in at just under a grand..............no thanks.I'll just stick to my simple clean Gold Rolex.

I have two of the presidential Rolexes. One gold, the other silver. Sonny didn't wear silver, but I kind of liked it anyway, although I never wear it. My replicas are actual automatics. Also, mine have some of the security devices thrown in to make them more realistic, like the very small etched crown in the crystal face that the naked eye can just barely make out if the light shines on it from the right angle. It has the holigram stickers on the back too. The seconds hands are not quartz movement either. The seconds hands mimic the real Rolexes seconds hands very closely, but not perfect. Most people will believe it.

I'm currently shopping, are there any updates on current suppliers of replica Ebels out there?  I'm having an easy time finding a pretty close match of his 2nd to 5th season watches with a leather band.  And I'm having an easy time finding mens replica Ebels that have the all gold linked band of late 3rd season thru 5th.  But boy is it hard to find a wave band like 2nd thru most of 3rd season.  They reproduce it in women's size a lot, but I can't find any current watches with the mens wave band.  Anyone having any luck finding the men's Ebel wave band with any watch face, even in stainless or stainless and gold?  Thanks.

if its any sort of hint, maybe you guys need to look for a modern ebel or a zenith replica, as the movement in the ebel is a zenith from this time period, it is possible to buy a modern ebel that looks pretty close to the old one, sans the zenith movement. as its some cheaper in house one.

 

as according to the rolex dealer I asked years ago, he said that they at one point, used to carry ebel, but that was a very long time ago, probably early 1990's back when they were using zenith-rolex daytona movements.

 

but its a minimal of a grand and a half. and the zeniths save for the case look pretty much exactly like his old ebel, but they're reaching rolex money

 

funny timing though, I found a local watch guy to service my omega for 80 bucks, plus the crown part he needs that might get expensive. turns out a little water got in and caused it rust a little, causing it to loose time and its just as well that I broke the crown, as the O rings perrished.

actually I oughta ask him if he's ever serviced one of these or if he has anything close.

 

I mean it looked like something out of HG wells in his shop. and this guy was local and I never knew. the watch doctor, go figure.

 

it looked like something that belonged in vintage doctor who really.

Finally found one my watches I used to wear back in the days of vice.  I bought this one in Switzerland while I was touring Europe.  It is a John Player Special Chronograph Model 152/153.  A British watch I believe.  You can see why I picked it out over the Swiss plastic watches they had.  Definitely very similar to Crockett's Ebel 1911s.  I need to get this to a jeweler and have the gaskets and battery replaced.
