  1. Good point. Ok, I would be mare than happy with the mod A7750 auto, but with the dial of the manual Moon Speedy. Anyway nobody )other than me) it's going to know it.
  2. Some pics from Buenos Aires, Argentina:
  3. Antomarty, did Andrew give some specs ? Auto ? Manual ? Sapphire ? Acrylic? This is going to be a long wait until June
  4. Go for the Black version, the wave pattern is awesome.
  5. Great pics, thanks for sharing. Looks like the red paint details are in brighter tone than the red in my 41 mm version. Now I am in troubles, should I get this beauty or the Ebel 1911 that was on top in my shopping list ?
  6. That has to hurt I would like to get a gen someday, I only hope I don't have to let it go.
  7. Nice pair. They look like Twins (the movie)
  8. Functions (all functions exactly as gen): - Chronograph: 30 minutes counter subdial at 12, 12 hr counter subdial at 6 and seconds counter in central hand. - Day: left window at 12 - Month: right window at 12 - Date: center hand, numeral around dial - 24hr: subdial at 9. This is 24 hr format of the local time, it's not a second zone - Moon phase: window at 6 This movt is a A7750 modified to perform the additional function, other than chrono. It's the same movt we could find in the Omega Speedmaster Day-Date, which I own and it's being working flawlessly for almost a year. Also this mod movt has been stated as reliable in several posts. Of course to ensure a long life, if you buy it, sent it to service upon receiving it and/or do regular service.
  9. Stunning piece The dial pattern is gorgeous. Phoband, congrats in your new baby. Enjoy it.
  10. I didn't know, it's not at the TH web site neither its online catalog. If you saw it at the AD, for sure the factories will release it any time soon.
  11. :D We are in the same boat, as a matter of fact a very crowded boat. I only wish the factories launch a Moon Speedy without the auto module, the Lemania subdial spacing and the "slave" hour counter at 6 are a huge lay down to me.
  12. I have been using this tools on Omegas and many other with good results: I got mine from Amazon for little over 10 bucks (Amazon link HERE ) I hope this help you a little.
  13. Shundi, never seen this before, thanks. It's a great video of a stunning movt. It's a groundbreaking approach to the traditional rotor, it's great to have a see-through case back with a movt without a rotor that interrupt the view. Even they made an original design for the balance adjustment. Carl F Bucherer has beautiful elegant designs, I really love the Patravi TravelTec GMT, but at a reatil price of US$ 10,900 and only could wait for a good rep sometime in the future.
  14. My friend great review, after the long wait, patience pay it off. Thanks for taking the time to write the review, it covers all the important aspects of a really good rep. My love for the Carrera Tach. comes and goes, I was wondering in the black Sport version, but after seen your pics I could feel the love coming back strong in the silver version direction. Congrats for a work well done.
  15. No, as matter of fact there is not a gen either. The rep is available in black and brown, and the gen in black, silver and brown. A blue version will be a fantasy rep.
  16. B-T, you really love your TAG And yes, it looks great as it changes according with the light and angle.
  17. Lanikai, This is a great idea, it's going to be fun.
  18. I also go with fixed in the right position, than "working" wrong placed. Also as Wayward, I am intrigued on why you ask
  19. On Monday IWC GST Ti. I really love this rep, the presence is almost like a gen.
  20. bonecollector, do yourself a favor, if money is not a problem (which usually IS ), save some additional money and go for the A7750, it's one of the best rep available in the market. Otherwise, I agree with gillorin, go to WatchEden.
  21. Great choice. This beauty is in the top in my wish list. Congrats & enjoy it.
  22. I had used the washing machine method with some success. It's pretty easy to do, remove the movt, put the case & bracelet on the washing machine with a load of clothes, and do a regular cycle. This produce lots of light scratch and hairlines, you could repeat the process until you get the level you are looking for. Also during the process, the bezel is going to fade, so you have to control the wearing of the case/bracelet and the decoloration on the bezel. Usually it took 2 or 4 times to me to get the results I was looking for. Good luck.
  23. Great selection you did, you will not regret it.
