Steel Pumpkin today:

Breitling Navi's do not survive in water, any kind of water. Mine fogged up after washing it in the sink

Double AR is the way to go, it'll "make" the watch, trust me

Feeling a little bling today:

Zulu strap on 3717 w/double AR:

No.

I notice now in person that the AMG I have has a difference in the color and texture of the case and the bracelet. The bracelet is a little darker and smoother and more shiny than the watch head. From your pics it looks like your's is similar, but it's hard to tell. Do you notice the same thing with yours in person?

Yellow Ferrari for me:

Stephane, I just bought this watch as a result of your pictures here, great review!! One question - where did you get the Ti buckle for the nylon strap? I've only been able to find brushed Stainless Steel buckles everywhere I've looked. Thanks

bytor asked for more pics of the TT Bently on the other forum, but it's down, so posting it here: Oh yeah, tomorrow I'm going w/my SMP Chrono w/single sided AR and a blue nato strap (and I fixed the bezel alignment too):

How did you get the end links off? I'm pretty versed in this stuff, but I cannot get the bracelet off mine.

6.5 inch wrist:

Grey (not brown) dial BCE w/bling:

Chieftang, you didn't have to strip my navi crystals did you? I worked pretty hard w/a dremel and a cape cod cloth to get them stripped before sending, but if it was ineffective I'll need to change my method.....

I'm in, what do I need to do to get you the $$ for one set of 3717 day/date wheels?

DSN Fiddy on cordovan:

yep, pushers leak. Best bet is to disassemble the watch (not too hard), and remove the crystal and the inner bezel ring with the tachymeter on it. Then you can toss in the case and bracelet without issues. Afterwards just clean it off with some hot water, dish soap, and a toothbrush, let it dry for a couple of hours, then reassemble.

Back in the day I had my 192 pressure tested & it was not waterproof, just FYI.

sure, but let's do it after the AR crystal run 3 is done, I've got 6 watches that are going to look spectacular when I get them back.

Hehe, sent mine out for the double AR crystal coating from chieftang, I'm STOKED to see it when it gets back

panerai 192. bad decision. also, and IWC GST with white dial, but I rebought it, so it probably doesn't count.

love the addition of the multi-dimensional look of the dial, but could do without the PR indicator.

The Ferrari watches don't photo well, they always look a bit tonka-toy-ish. In real life they are much more understated and elegant than what shows on the photos.

You look like I feel after a set of 20 rep squats!

Or you could but the whole watch from another source & buy the correct dial from davidsen.
