 Posted: Wed Mar 07, 2007 11:37 am Post subject:  Mine is the Renato Rubber / Gold Plated Wildebeast. It is a high level 5 piece construction swiss G10 chrono mvmt and a very substantial time piece. I think the bottom line is if you really like the watch any reasonable price is OK, regardless of the type of mvmt. High level 5 piece case???? Dont most companies brag about carving out a watch from a solid chunk of steel???? G-10???This movement has been around since the Lupah:D Boy do I remember those days  The only valid statement is...if you like it then buy it!

You guys can bash Renato all you want. I own two of them. Yesterday, I went to the brick and mortar watch shops with a relative who was looking for a "name brand" or something that caught his eye etc etc. I bet I hit 5 independant stores and one jewlery exchange with about 10 watch dealers. They all could not belive the quality of my Rose T-REX with raw CF chocolate face and rubber strap.They even basically ignored him to look at my watch. he was so pissed at that, he walked away from one shop cause he was looking at a 4 grand list watch and they were to busy oooing and ahhing over mine.Then when I told them the price, they were surprised at the affordability. One shopowner asked me if i'd be willing to take 800.00 for my watch. (I paid about 600 with tax and S&H). I gave him a quick ...NO! Some people/companies learn from previous experiences and better themselves and their companies. While it is unknown if RENATO will ever be to the masses what other well know brands have become, to those of us buying them and enjoying them, they have already arrived at that status. As long as YOU enjoy what you spend your hard earned dollars on, well, that is the only thing that counts. So, BASH away if you please.   Last edited on Sun Jul 29th, 2007 12:03 pm by ingoodtime |

Welcome to 3T!! Why would you choose to introduce yourself by trolling for a 4 month old thread. C'mon now... That is just silly!! If you like your Renatos... great... enjoy them and I hope they serve you well. But please don't come to this forum and try to stir the pot... Again, a most sincere welcome to 3T!!

Well, actually, I only found this site today and signed up. I did a search for Renato and found some references to DM and then to Ranato. All things are subject to change and I thought maybe some folks might be more receptive than they have been in the past. I did not consider my posts as stirring the pot. Just sharing my likes. For those of you that don't like the Renato, fine. I don't personally like the way SNBC treats their customers but do like some of their products and pricing. I don't care where the watch is assembled as log as I I like what I am getting. With the welocme I have received, I will go back to forums that are more receptive to others personal choices. Administrator, please feel free to cancel my user account.

Administrator, please feel free to cancel my user account. No need for all that. clearly you have no interest in what is currently going on in this forum and look to dig up that which offends your senses. You are more than welcom to participate here, but we don't need to rehash old posts. You will find many of us have in the past and do currently buy from Slop. But we all know what a crapshoot that can be... As for the Renatos... to each his own... personally I would have grabbed the 8 bills and bought Swiss... Ultimately it is up to you to buy and wear what makes you happy. No need for afirmation, right??
