  1. I will post pics soon, most probably on Tuesday If you want good deals on Breitling straps, check out ebay.de EDIT: Posted some shots today http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=81139
  2. I do love the watch, one of the best replicas I own, I am thinking of ordering the black dial version soon (may end up with blue too) Strange thing is that I did not really like this style of watch at first, and I sold my first one only to regret it later, as I found the watch grew on me more and more, kinda snuck up on me, so to speak There may well be variations with the rep and the gen, I am only making the call regarding the subdials rings, with my grey dial rep and my local AD's grey dial gen as reference Cheers!
  3. I know the maker did a great job, I 100% agree. I have the grey dial version myself, on a gen breitling croc strap with gen deployent buckle I just thought it was worth mentioning the subdial ring colour here, because there is a noticable difference, but one you will only really see if you have handled both the gen and rep first hand like I have Here is another thing I have noticed, the double AR on my rep is blue and purple. One side is blue tinted and the other side reflects purple! Strange but true Cheers!
  4. If you had the gen and rep in hand, you would see the difference, trust me It is hard to show through pictures, but I still chalk this up as a very slight dial inacuracy. The rep has silver subdial rings, the gen has a darker gunmetal finish on it's subdial rings, both still reflect the light and are shiny, but there is a difference for sure... Cheers!
  5. Not black, but gunmetal, still a shiny metalic finish and reflective, but it catches the light in a different way to silver.... It is not huge difference, but it is not a bright shiny silver colour like the rep. I was looking at the watch today in hand and it was the first thing I noticed
  6. I was in the AD with the watch in hand, it was definitely a blackened metal, like gun metal finish, it was shiny and reflective, but not silver. Have a look here: The blue dial is not silver either..... Only the black dial seems like it may have true silver subdial rings... UB7 your pictures also do not look like silver to me, but a darker tone, more like a gunmetal finish, it will still catch the light and be reflective, but it is not silver... Gunmetal: Silver: Cheers!
  7. Looks really nice, you should finish it of with some double AR, now that would be the icing on the cake
  8. I just had a peak at the gen grey dial Skyland at my local AD, and noticed the metal rings on the subdials had a black metal finish, not silver. A small difference, but a difference none the less.... The dial colour appeared to be very accurate indeed
  9. The Concord you linked to is about $50 less than trusty, or Perfect-Clones though? http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=25127 I am not sure, who used the term "Water-resistant: 6 microbar or 50m dash in the rain" I think it was Eddie Lee maybe?.... A known older dealer..... Cheers!
  10. Hehe, no they are priced like that because they are not 100% available yet 8 is a lucky number in Asia, so 8888, just like here: http://www.pc-80108.com/
  11. Maybe it is being released soon with the flag? http://www.maldwatch.com/Hublot-Replica/HB0031-6370.html Cheers!
  12. Could very well be a fault of there photos skills, I never said it was a "conspiracy to scam" It is just a tad misleading, intentional or not......
  13. I am not saying it was 100% intentional, but it does seem strange that the photos of this particular watch were made to look more cream in colour.... The diifference is very obvious, no? My first thought was that they had fixed the dial colour, It seems I was not alone in thinking that.... Cheers!
  14. Why would you want your money back and then risk buying from a drop ship dealer? Just get the original dealer you purchased from to repair/replace the watch.... It is part and parcel of the rep game, I have had a fair few duff watches, and every time the seller used has sorted it for me.... How long have you been wearing the watch and are you active and moving about? Can you feel/hear the rotor spin inside the watch? Cheers!
  15. The black dial ROO's do look really nice now, no metallic shine to the new black date surround either Cheers!
  16. Yeah it should have a cream dial, dark brown numerals and white/silver subdials. So this dial is the one not to buy..... Gen: If they did this dial right, it would be the one I would want, on a brown croc strap....
  17. Use Precious-Time, no customs problems to worry about
  18. It is poor form indeed, just compare this colour change, from the original picture, to my slightly contrast adjusted one, and then Kings.... There is only one reason why they would purposely do this, and it is not a good reason. Are they expecting us to believe they are that bad at taking photos, and this is just a coincidence? At least Kings photo shows the watch in the correct manner
  19. "Sneaky" is one word for it, yes Just out of interest, I thought only the black dialed ROO's should have the black date surround?
  20. In fact King has the updated version on her site, and it shows that the colour is still white, and proves the photos on Trustytime/Perfect-Clones were made to look more cream in colour, not good.... Cheers!
  21. I am not so sure, have they been messing with the photos colour balance? Trusty original photo: Photo with contrast corrected: We need better pictures, hopefully Puretime will update his website soon, his pictures are much better..... Cheers!
  22. Screws, and with the right screwdriver, it should be a piece of cake!
  23. Definitely, the AR is good for rep or gen, black dial watches especially
  24. PreciousTime, or PureTime? Looking forward to seeing some pictures soon!
