Thats OK, it still is 2008 for a little while yet

Sorry, I can't see any major difference between the gen picture and Kings rep.....

Looks OK to me, mwee posted this over at RG:

I can't find any gen SS bracelet pictures anywhere, but even so, I would still prefer this compared to the uncomfortable rubber strap/clasp combo.... I wonder if the "ultimate" HBB maker is working on a bracelet too?

I have not seen the gen, what markings should it have?

Looks like it is not the first factory either, but the other factory who produce the cheaper low beat HBB's.... Will be interesting to follow this, as the main cartel dealers don't stock the "cheaper" HBB's..... I have never really been comfortable with the clasp on the HBB rubber strap, so this will be a sweet option I wonder at the cost though, and if it can be ordered seperately?

Looks like the bracelet has been replicated, check out the link: http://www.kingshowbox.com/gallery.php?id=1632 Looks pretty good, no?

Very nice watch! I think the last thing you should do now is...... Wear it!

I really hope the case treatment is something special too, not just light PVD to only replicate the general colour and finish of the genuine watch But who will want to test the scratch resistance theory of their new $450+ watch!

What losses?! With the strong $$, the dealers that can sell this watch are going to be very happy, big margins for them

+1

Maybe he thinks you want to buy three watches?

Joshua also confirmed, sold out

Just got a reply from Andrew: "There is no brushed Ceramic case version available now. Maker has no stocks. Thanks" So thats the end of that

I am hovering on the edge of buying this too, but not if it has a polished finish ceramic case.....

Did you buy it recently, or before he changed the "updated brushed case" message on his site?

I am sure it said PVD when I first read it, maybe it was edited? Says PVD here: http://www.tt88time.com/index.php?main_pag...roducts_id=3393 I would need the

So it uses PVD coating, not DLC? I wonder if they had a problem with the DLC treatment..... I think I will wait and see a few reviews first, I too hope they can sort out the messy lume issues!

Yeah, if you want to pay extra and have quality checks and high res pictures before delivery, Chis is the guy to go too.... Or you can pay less and get a blind drop ship watch

Nice watch, I like it! How much for this bad boy? Most other dealers are selling for $650 upwards

So this guy replicated a whole forum, members too?!

The Breitling SFSO only comes with 2836's now, the 2824 ones are unavailable from any dealer now I think.... The HBB King looks like a big screw up for sure, as that is not a A7750. You should contact the dealer and try to arrange a "cross ship" replacement ASAP.... Cheers! Mike

I don't mind paying if the work has been done. I would want to pay upon receiving the watches though, not before I have done that before with Jakub anyway, so I don't think it will be an issue. I just hope my watches are on a list for return postage some time soon

Sorry to hear of the problems with the watch, most good dealers should be happy to cross ship a replacement, saves so much time! Looks like the watch had some inconsistency with the lume on the minute hand too? I hope you get everything sorted, myself I am not overly keen on the Grahams, but there is something about the dial on the version below that I like: Cheers!
