Rolexman Posted August 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2006 Replacing the day/ date wheel is easy.... but finding the right colour, right size and right font is difficult. You could buy a gen day/ date wheel but I don't know if it will fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

artoero Posted August 11, 2006 Report Share Posted August 11, 2006 wow lokking marvelous indeed, you never said a word to much!! The gen strap is making it more real IMO Speak to you arthur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falconetti Posted August 11, 2006 Report Share Posted August 11, 2006 The rep is slightly brighter red... Nope.. the Chronomatic has the crown on the left side, but it functions as a regular crown. In this case it's a HEV of some sort. On the genuine it is not a HEV. There is a cog mechanism inside this which rotates the inner bezel when the outer bezel is turned (It shows it in the book I acquired from an AD Officially: "...the variable tachometer is controlled by rotating the outer bezel, which drives a pinion and an arbor activating the inner bezel..."

Rolexman Posted August 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2006 (edited) Nope, same principle as the Navitimer; smooth rotating bezel. Edited August 13, 2006 by Rolexman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yodap Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 The rep is slightly brighter red... Nope.. the Chronomatic has the crown on the left side, but it functions as a regular crown. In this case it's a HEV of some sort. Hi! Thanks for the great review! I think I'll buy this model... Could you give me a link to Precious Time's website please? Thanks! (On the left side, it's not a HEV, there are gears inside, so if you turn the outter bezel, the glass won't move, only the inner bezel.)

Brucelles Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 Thanks for the review, I had considered it, but now I realise that it's just too big for my dainty wrists. I am back to ordering the full-bollock blingy TT Navitimer. Dudes, if you want to buy one from Precious time try: http://www.precioustime-uk.com www.ptswiss.com Or try www.eurotimez.com/ Thanks for the review, I had considered it, but now I realise that it's just too big for my dainty wrists.

Roma Leo Posted July 4, 2009 Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 FYI - I wore my rep of this watch with the maroon dial to a conference in Boston. I recd two compliments in the airport and one at a shopping mall and I am not even home yet. A really nice dress watch. Purchase and enjoy.

neveraj Posted August 11, 2009 Report Share Posted August 11, 2009 Quick question. I have had this watch for 2 years now and love it!! But all the gen's I see have a black day/date and mine is red. Did Breitling change it? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
