The best comment from Risti: "Instead of the Brooklyn Bridge, the Manhattan Bridge would have been more befitting. It's closer to Chinatown..."

...and I did a review of this rep on RG since I had it for over a week Thaaat what an itchy feeling not to release the news

I do hope GMT modules will be based on high-beat 7750 for 088.

...I just put it into single PDF (17 MB): Mario_Paci_Panerai_Watches.pdf

I am unstoppable when comes to regulation of my reps Usually, i stop regulating when: - it slows/advances 1-2 secs a day and... - i found special way of placement the watch for the night (i.e. dial down) when it does opposite to the day's inaccuracy. This way I can narrow inaccuracy down to +/- 3 secs a week. For regulation pursposes I use Kello APP from AppStore (iPhone) I seriously start regulating the watch after min. 6 weeks of constant use - after "break in" period.

just a question: does it glow, anyway? after it turned grey?

Missing concentring circles on subdials, pearl too embosed, something wrong with rotating bezel - it is better to wait for V2 before tossing almost $500

For all those still hesitating to pull the trigger on this watch - enjoy Taken with Nikon D7000 with Nikkor 16-85.

as read somewhere on Paneristi, Panerai slowly switches from "made in Austria" to "made in Italy" but it is well mixed now in GEN world.

I just received pam 111m from H-factory with rubber strap - it smells vanilia and has "made in Austria" print.

111M vs 111J relumed on RG very good read

I am waiting for my 111M to come from Joshua... What can you tell about time keeping? How many +/- secs per day? Is this roughly the same as shown on QC photos from timing machine? Regards, Pawel

Now I really need money to buy that one Caught me unprepared... and 30m water resistance should be enough for pool operation

I like the titanium version of almost any watach if available. There is Tag Heuer AD in my place but never carried any titanium version of the watch as specified in the post title, hence there was no way to see it in flesh I tried to use web to find about differences of SS vs titanium and here they are: 1. The crown top is not filled with resin on Titanium version (this is OK in reps): 2. There is TH logo plate on a buckle in titatnium version vs engraved TH symbol (?) in SS (rep makers got it wrong in Titanium versions): 3. Titanium version have clearly additional "dishes" applied on minutes/hours chrono subdials where SS have them simply cut in the dial (another thing rep makers got wrong): Titanium (applied): This one is confusing, since it is SS version of Singapore but Titanium Singapore has the same plates: heres Titanium version (Singapore) but smaller pic: SS (cut in): 4. The day date window frame front surface is matte in Titanium while polished in SS (rep makers assumed is polished on any version). Am I right?

I am using Kello, too. The mic is standard as comes with earphones. I used hockey puck with cut out "valley" for a mic. I put the watch on it and it works I managed to set my a7750 calibre 16 day/date to whooping +1 sec/day in normal use. Tip: Kello is basing on your iPhone quartz which is not so accurate. It is best to get very accurate watch (or a watch with known inaccuracy) to virtually calibrate Kello. Now I know that when something is running 0 sec/day Kello actually shows -2.6 sec/day. Knowing the difference helps regulating the watch

I bought limited version of Carrera Calibre 16 Singapore, that one with green accents - and it is great The are some details which bothers me: - no "dishes" for minutes / hours of chrono (the GEN has them risen up from dial surface like this:) These dishes are applied, not cut deep into dial: - TH logo is missing arrows for G - wrong day date font (to be modded with ETA's ones) We all are still waiting for an Ultimate of these watches

...and works great when removing AR from sapphires tried it on my PloProf - it was quick!

Reps on Josh site are so off.. I liked the prototype version with black dial but even the datewheel is of wrong color reference: Calibre 1887 hands-on

wow.. 1:1 would be great!

Since Joshua sent the box to me using ANOTHER EMS without any additional costs of shippment, seems like $30 is just the price for not sending the box at all So it is always box in price included, I guess

I bought the watch from Joshua. For the price and normal shippment (EMS) costs - Joshua sent it in two (2) separate EMS, one for watch and, one day later, the box. Box is expected on Monday so I skipped the box part at all since SMIDSY/RWI did it already. The watch is perfect. Swiss ETA 988.333 inside. Everything from B&R page about this watch is correct in case of settings etc. There are two type of crown rotation needed to set some function: slow and fast turn. Fast turn is really FAAAST, you need to turn as fast as you can, literally. Now to the pictures (sorry for the visible dust particles...sunny day): The crown has some resin layer on it, tried to show it: On this picture I did my best to get worst glare from the window on the crystal - surpisinlgy LCD remained clearly visible due to birefringence, I guess... To compare sizes, PAM 288 on the left: The LCD readability is quite subtle, but I like it - it doesn't "fight" with the dial and hands Alarm signal is two-tone and quite nice. Minute hand moves every 30 seconds.

Yes... i think cannon pin cap is a tell. SMIDSY on RWI suggested that both versions (cap and no-cap) are being produced but I wasn't able to find any GEN photo with no silver cap. Look at these: GENS: This one is with dark cap BUT it is DEMONSTRATION UNIT with paper LCD inserts etc.: I wasn't able to find a GEN pics with dark cannon pin cap except this demonstration unit (which is no real watch anyway).

There is an obvious tell on this B&R rep - it is missing cannon pin cap like GEN has...

Just great, can't imagine myself not ordering it from Josh

I bought 236 and removed bracelet this Sunday. Now it looks great and somewhat better on dark brown Hirsch strap: I think every 236 rep owner should try to put it on a strap as it is more elegant in my opinion...
