I think you should check out BT's review first under Breitling section. I helped me out a lot when I first got here.

What a pos!

@frankpower88: What a collection! Thanks for sharing! What did you do to your Bentley? The only thing I have seen is that you moved the subdial hands.

I'm confused. Should the subdial hands to be moved?

I hope they rep this watch without the sunken dw! But it probably will have sunken dw . Just like the B01. There is no way around it.

Is the mesh bracelet same as what's on SOH? 24mm in lug width?

On their website, there is no phone number listed I can call.

One more is in the making... stay tuned!

The large second hand skips once as the minute register advances. It's normal. Some a7750 movements are like that.

Agree .

I hope to see the new Navitimer rep with a7753 movement soon...

It would be great if Navitimer doesn't have sunken dw.

I may have a BCE v3 dw some time soon FS.

Guys,

AR coating is not a simple process. It's even harder when you want to be perfect, especially having the lab involved. I think we should just be glad that there is finally a person that can coat crystal now. AR or no AR is our choice, it really good go know if we do decide to AR the crystal, there is a place we can send to.

Congratulations buddy!

You can buy the case for $100? That would be ok then. We can get it from the cartel?

Guys,

I know the AP ROO chronos do look great. I like to some day own a safari model or this one, nice and light. However, I am wondering if any of you thought of this. Since the gasket is exposed between the bezel and case, will it ever gets dried up and starts to crack? If so, what do we do then? It would be tough to find replacement parts. What would be the useful life for the $600 spend on this?

Any thoughts or has anybody done this before? Mine doesn't have a whole lot of threads on the tube, so I would like to have it replaced. I'm afraid someday I won't be able to screw down the crown any more.

Thanks!

Anything in my collection, duh! I don't wear the same watch two days in a row.

What do I say to them? Thanks again!

There is no other way, huh? Looks like they have an office in NYC. Have you worked with them before?

Richemont?

I saw the genuine straps for sale online, they don't come with the strap bars. I don't personally think it's just me needing replacement for these bars. The lady on the other end of the phone was really clueless. It's kind of sad having someone selling stuff he/she does not know anything about. I guess having someone pay top dollars on a watch but does not know anything about watches is way worse.

Thanks for calling your AD for me. I really appreciate it! The watch strap is 23mm wide, so strap bars should be a little bit longer than 23mm.

Called the AD. I really didn't think a set of strap bars can be any problems, but the lady on the phone told me they didn't have anything (frankly I didn't think she knew what I was talking about) and asked me to send the watch in to Cartier and wait for 6-7 weeks. Wow!

This watch is not perfect. I assume the slide rule has the same flaw (too wide and not all align) as what's on the Navitimer Serie Special. The crystal probably rotates, whivh is too bad. What about the general construction of the watch? Is the slide rule smooth and tight? Does the crown tube have enough threads? For some reason I really like the white dial version.

Anyone know where I can locate a Cartier AD in Cont US?
