Some gen owners of Breitlings and Omega PO's remove the outer AR coating through personal preference. Personally I love the way the crystal 'disappears' on the Breitlings, so I would probably look into getting another AR coat. It won't take away from the authenticity though, it's still a Breitling! The only time it might cause a problem is in re-selling it, I'm not sure how many people would actually notice though!

I push in the crown and then the lever on a 005

The genuine is only in black so it's probable it will only be available in black too.

I agree completely, but the white dial on the BCE goes beyond extraordinary I haven't checked to see how it is running against a standardised clock. Il do it today and let you know. However, bear in mind each movement from the factory can vary.

I went for the Ultimate Swiss White Dial. It is unbelievably good! I couldn't recommend it enough!

I don't think we are taking money away from genuine brands. If people can afford gens they will buy them. I never thought of purchasing an expensive watch until I started buying reps. I am now considering the purchase of my first Breitling.

I'd save that for when the IWC Costeau is released

Omega PO Chrono, in black

There is a big campaign with the new IWC Costeau to have factory superlume. If it happens it may well set the trend for future reps. Watch this space!

No it was in a public place, and he doesn't do signings in overly crowded public places when he is 'off duty' so to speak otherwise he would spend all day signing people's property. I got a handshake, and a good discussion though

I met him for all of about 10minutes. I was happy. It's one of the most memorable points of my life so far!

Yes as RBJ says you will need new hands. I think The Zigmeister might have covered the differences in a post in his section, so a search in there might turn up some useful information. Is there any particular reason for the swap? The new asian movements are pretty good, especially in that layout. It might be worth sticking with it until it packs in! (if it does)

I have had no problems from Paul before. I have always found he has been very prompt and very helpful.

This is the first time that this brand has come to my attention, all I can say is WOW! They are very elegant looking timepieces!

Is that a crown or a washer?

Adds a bit of character to the board

Oh my dear lord! That's worth buying for the comedy value!

Good news! Welcome back Palp!

I emailed Jay about it a week ago, and he said the prototype was being completed. If it is good, then it will be released.

Is that not the wrong date wheel? It says 7750, but that looks like a 7753 datewheel, the numbers are facing the wrong way?

A bargain. Why buy the gen when you can have a rep for that price haha

Great stuff The Zigmeister. There you go PaneraiLord, heres the chance you were after! If I were you I would kow that The Zigmeisterinfo website like the back of my hand

That's the GMT hand

Take your pick, I have had good dealings with both dealers. I couldn't recommend one above the other, they are both of the highest quality.
