Just wanted to share a few quick pics. Well, a couple of weeks ago, I dropped by the famous MBW store and purchased the following two items. The experience was like what has already been reported here.....the price is set, you are limited to what is on hand or you order and pick up later. Being I was running short of time, i picked up the following two pieces. Blue tt sub. This is my third and most likely last attempt at a blue tt sub. 1st was a king sub....terrible. 2nd noob tt...not bad but didnt feel right, gold color too light. The mbw feels heavier even though they both weighed the same! or maybe its just my imagination. btw the guy said that the gold will never fade. he guarantees it! The blue is really nice. I would rate this dial above the noob tt dial. The nood dial is violet in certain lighting compared to the blue this dial. Although i would have to say the print is def better on the noob. Red sub. My first venture into vintage. I really like the plastic crystal. I really like this even with all its faults. Its feels very light though. Cheers.

check out the gen here.....8001 vs 8005, these Conqs are two different models, I would guess one is newer than the other. The 8005 rep is great, the rep 8001 itself is pretty good too. http://www.cagi-due.co.jp/f-muller/177.htm (no lume just like rep 8001) http://www.cagi-due.co.jp/f-muller/07.htm http://www.cagi-due.co.jp/f-muller/08.htm As for the bracelet, it looks like there are two styles; one flatter and one rounder, just like the reps, unless its just the lighting. Personally, I like the dial on the 8005 with the minute ticks. However the 2892s it seems are pretty hard to find nowadays. nk
