Less than 40mm wide, but 18mm thick???? Fugly. I have a beautiful Asian 21J that I bought 5 years ago that is the black dial Casablanca, and it is 9mm thick. That's what a 7750 movement will do for a 40 mm watch...make it THICK. No thanks.

And the beat goes on.

I waited 3 plus months for my OR from Silix, finally got a refund and ordered the strap from Andrew. Got the strap in one week. Without a doubt as good as the gen IMO. The clasp is first rate...nice micro divers adjustment. Super comfortable, and it makes the Heritage. One of the best rubber straps and clasp on any watch.
-
This would be another of those black dialed divers watches. One beautiful Breitling, that is for sure.

I like the Cape Cod cloths. They really polish most ss. You can hardly go wrong. Don't polish the crystal. They work well.

Ride on.

I hear that. This forum is ALL ABOUT sharing a love of watch love.

Beautiful photos...It's all about the photos after all. Nice collection. Wear them well.

] My photos of this watch do NO JUSTICE to this piece. Definitely the most beautiful watch in the WORLD. Original MBW/MBK. Best rep ever. Really. I just viewed a online offer for the gen 2008 5711-1A, (Nautilus 43mm with seconds hand) which for all intents and purposes is the same watch as the MBK rep, minus the trick dial and sapphire back, and that piece was selling for 16,000.00 POUNDS. Yea!

Please do not disappear all together. Your knowledge in the rep world is important. I don't contribute 1000's of posts, but still try to visit as often as possible. Good to stay in touch. All the best to you.

Beautiful. The mesh does not look as good IMO. Nice look. Do any of our dealers offer the 'Speedy' ss bracelet?
-
The rep leather strap and deployment clasp are crap. Terrible deployment..really uncomfortable. Suggest a Breitling standard buckle, way better, on any nice 24mm strap. I am still waiting for the OR. But I must say that after seeing the Heritage on the link ss breitling strap, I am really stoked. Looks great. Where does one find the polished ss link bracelet (rep)?

A testimony to how lucky we are as a community to have a guy like Mr. Z in the fold. Welcome home.

I have been loving this Aquanaut lately, but for the weekend gotta go to the Heritage. Nice photos of the BBK's boys.
-
Very nice photos...as usual. Thanks.

It's funny, the few times that people actually mention the watch I am wearing it never occurs to them that it might be a ' fake '. I actually enjoy telling people that the watch that I am wearing is in fact a fake. Most of the folks who I know could care less. I am not in a corporate atmoshere, quite the contrary...jeans and polo shirts for work, and 99% of the people I deal with could care less what kind of watch I wear. I mostly wear my MBK Nautilus, or my 3717, or my SOH, all classically beautiful watches... all expensive in one way or another...and NO ONE cares. Only me. If you try and pass off something like a HBB as gen and it costs 10,000.00, and you only make 30,000.00 a year then that is absurd. On the other hand if you are older and have a good income, then who would ever question how much your watch cost? Or care?
-
I must echo the previous sentiments. To work on one of these little works of art, and make the process... work. Very cool. Wear it well.
-
Where the gen. While you are there don't miss the watch shop at the Winn. Unbelievable. All the most beautiful and expensive watches in the world. Torneau and Rolex shops in the Bellagio, are good too. Have fun.

Never ending Wristcheck (must include other hobby)

This thread made me do it. A few of my passions...A6...SWorks Roubaix...and IWC 3717. Pretty much, what more could one man want. -
I have to agree that not many people ever notice what watch I am wearing. Of the few that do mostly they say things like...Wow, ANOTHER watch, how many do you own? Of the few compliments I have had a number have been from men (not chicks) that seem to like the Pilot chrono 3717. I have to agree.
-
I have to agree that the link chrono is a damn nice watch. So nice in fact that a year or so ago my link was stolen by a cleaning team at my home. Funny that out of 20 watches in a watch case, with Rolli's, Omega's, IWC's, and PAM's, they chose to nick the TAG. I miss it, a very nice rep, great fit, very comfortable on the wrist. Funny how it seems to be phases and stages with we WIS's. Like fashion in general I guess...one day your in...and the next day your out. Wear it well.

Damn Nanug, I am stoked to see that I am not the only one still riding a hard tail. After all these years I am still on an IBIS Ti Mojo. It snowed here in the Rockies this weekend, and I managed a good ride while it was snowing...before the trails got too knarly. Over for us soon. Nice tires my man. Ride on dude.
