At WatchRap, someone asked this question about the replica Corum watch caliber 1120 (based on ETA 2892-A2) and Rolex caliber 3135 (inhouse).Jack Forster wrote an answer that seem to cut some wood (Dutch saying):As far as robustness goes, I’d have to give the edge probably somewhat to the cal.3135 as it uses very, very tried and true materials and it’s pretty much optimized to keep a very close rate using well tried materials and methods.Overall it’s a pretty rugged piece of work.Cal.
Its the coolest thing you can do, literally. You are jumping off things and plummeting to your death but then you fly away with a little piece of nylon. Skiing is so great by itself, then you put the two sports together, and its all even better. You can ski things no one else can ski. With a parachute, all of the sudden these impossible lines are Rolex Sports Models replica watches survivable.So give us a sense of why the experience is so cool.What I love the most about it is that it allows you to ski the fastest you would probably ever ski and really get to that point of no return.
