QC = Quality Control....Some thing our dealers try to impress upon us (really none existant in the World of reps.) by sending us pics of our watches prior to shipping them. Welcome

Yes it can be done on a Navi World. Did this on both my 089's and 252 this weekend.

Seen this before on reps I have serviced

I like that strap combo much better! Just found I have a Spare Bentley Deployment...Think I need one of your Coach straps for it!

Navi World! Because of its size!

Nice! Also get yourself some good books on watchmaking...you will learn a lot. I am actually learning and in the process of turning down my first balance staff. This is the true art of watch making. Most of all, enjoy! It is a great feeling taking some thing that is not working and fixing it...just take your time.

Oh, 2 more things to add to my list that were not on there! Thanks! WC are with out a doubt more toxic then anything in our reps! By the way...they just open a WC withing stumbling distance from my place!

The Metals in our reps are SS...not exactly 316L as our dealers advertised. At least the Daytona I destroyed was not. Non-the-less it was SS in the base form with some pretty funky inclusions. Really unless your are highly allergic, or have a preexisting skin condition, I can

I am so game for that! I actually have a Gen 7753 un-cased right now...if someone is up for sending me the A7753, I would love to do a comparison! Back on topic

I know they did not come from me. I was just refering the ones that came from me as they came the same day you posted that you got your rep straps. The Coach strap was NOT a rep? Wow...fooled me! Sorry my friend...could not fight the urge.

I just felt guilty for forgetting to ship them with the rest of your stuff.

Does not work running that hands over back and forth over 12am. My SOHLE has stopped on me twice due to my winder batteries being dead...everytime I have had to spend 5 minutes winding the hands between 8pm and 12am to make the date correct.

Post them! One more in the day light! The dial changes color in different lights!

More pics of my Gen for you.

Yep, gakets around the pushers. The only gasket I touched was the Crown tube and case backet with some gasket grease. Ran it in a Sigma tester from -0.5ATM to 10ATM and she passed without issue.

The Gens have more curve to them so depending on your wrist size, they are more comfortable.

You can find them on The Bay, less "Panerai"

He wants to know about the Leather Strap deployment over the OR Deployment. I would get a OR deployment and sent it to Black here...they are SOOOO SWEEET! I know...I have one....

JA, I have a couple more at home that I can post up later for you

I will say it again as I have said it before...AUTHENTICWATCHES on Ebay or their site is a f@cking rip-off on any watch accessories!!! For what AuthenticWatches charges on just the Deployment clasp, you can go to your AD and buy the Breitling clasp with a Breitling Calf Strap and still have about $50 more in your pocket! Search the Breilting forum for "Price List" I posted the actual 2009 price list as I got it from Breitling. If you can't find it, PM me and I will help you out. Short and skinny...A Gen Breitling Deployment is $270 MSRP.

Yep it is Rhodium...Gen. This watch was in the 2009 ChronoLog. Main page of the Chronomat series...it is a stunning shot...well stunned me enough to buy the Gen. The subdials are infact rhodium as well, they just look whitish in some of the pics.

Oh...I am liking the IWC Blue dials...

22-20 for the BCE's...24-22...Rep misprint. Nice piece! Got one just like it.
