  1. It's a very very long shot, and they probably won't offer the information, but you could try Breitling HQ. See if they will tell you the font. Can't think of why you would want to know (best not to say for a replica project haha)

    It is part of their uniqueness, so i would imagine they would politely tell you to pee off.

    Or maybe ask if they could send some posters through for a uni project?

  2. I would love a good replica of the SA! Not that long ago there was a very good rep of the Chrono Avenger in titanium.

    Its still available, but in SS. Breitling only released it in Ti :thumbdown:

    If they released it again in the titanium, or a good quality SA I would jump on it, and I can imagine there are alot of others who would too!

    Whether or not there would be the demand in the rest of the rep market,for people who don't care too much with accuracy i don't know! Here's hoping!!!

  3. Most of them offered now are the newer version. With the 12,9,6 layout, there are no extra gears. If you opt for one that has a layout at 3,6,9 it will have extra gears, and extra stress is put on the movement.

    28,800BPH is the new movement. Safest way to be sure is to check with the dealer before you buy.

  4. Ok to me, $308 + p&p is a fair deal, considering the kind of watch it is. Guaranteed for diving to a certain depth, good AR, very accurate. I don't see that this is a high price compared to a similar price people are paying for the Asian BCE which you buy, praying to the man upstairs that the movement holds out!

    It is only $90ish more than the 4th gen PO, an extra $90 for a watch that comes with guaranteed diving design, and is a alot more accurate!

    Ok so they might be holding prices artificially high, but you have to remember this is business, they don't owe us anything. We are on this forum, putting input in to these watches because it's our hobby. If I wasn't part of this forum, and I came across the SO at that price I would jump on it! Compare this with the junk that scam site's sell.

    However, I do understand what the other side to the view is, but I really believe we are blessed to have such good quality replicas being produced at the moment!

    $150 at silix prime for the latest version ultimate PO with swiss movement.

    This PO is the generation before the Ultimate PO.

  5. honestly with the quality of rep watch today.. i dont see a point in getting genuine anyway..

    I was thinking this only yesterday. I would really like a genuine PO, but the Ultimate PO looks so close, I can't justify paying the 'x' amount more for it. The movement is good, so that won't pack in, they can be serviced etc....

    I think the only type of genuine I would buy would be one that can't be or is unlikely to be replicated - e.g. Breitling Aerospace Avantage :wub:

  6. Finepics is very good. I currently have Navitimer with him at the moment undergoing some work. Don't expect a reply from him too promptly, he is away at the moment, and dealing with a tought time at the moment, he has submitted a post somewhere explaining this. I would recommend contacting him nearer the end of the month!!
