very well explained totally true

@Lacuadra, I think all the dealers are now selling that (Puretime, Intime, Torobravos, etc) But i got mine from ChazingTime dot com , he is a new dealer at RG. Its $468 USD. And for the business shirt , hahaa ,its http://www.thomaspink.com/ , if you are in Australia, head to any David Jones, they have range of that shirt . i love them because of their fancy colours.

Busy day in the office

Just got this few days ago, this might get buried soon ,due to many other similar reviews in here what I find is JF really did a good job in this new AP Diver . PROS = 1. The Ceramic The brushed pattern looks stunning, its so shiny, and overall built is solid 2. The Decoration on the back What can i say, JF really put an effort on it, i swing back and forth under spotlight, it looks so beautiful. Plus the Miyota 9015 movement, i have more confidence with this movement rather than the siblings Asian 2824 3. The crystal I know its only 1 side AR at the front crystal, but when I compared with my Noob AP Diver v3.5, and other PAMs, this crystal looks like Double AR for me, super clear see-through crystal. (maybe its still new?) 4. BONUS = i got the plastic/rubber protector for it *whoohoo* CONS = 1. "second" hand still yellow (should be orange) 2. "Hour" hand should be white white, not milky white enough talking, here are some pics

have a friend who bought 1 , it broke after few months. i'm really tempted to buy the Bumblebee, but seeing all these problems makes me stay away from it for a while. especially $700 rep - and big chance to be broken after few months ? no way.

I saw a new model on the SIHH 2014 for similar look. http://www.watchesbysjx.com/2014/01/sihh-2014-introducing-panerai-radiomir.html however, it used the same movement as Montblanc ??? (Minerva Movement) http://www.watchesbysjx.com/2014/01/sihh-2014-introducing-montblanc.html PANERAI Radiomir 518/519/520 MONTBLANC Meisterstück Heritage Pulsograph

omg... sweeettttt

yea, been looking to buy Asso strap. i think it will looks good on this one. I heard KW (kuvarsit) one is the best out there. ($48) however with the Shipping cost $15, and Western Union transfer cost $10 it become quiet pricey.

Just got this from PT Overall = good quality 8/10 (good Lume, nice black P9000 movement, nice rough dial, nice Vintage colours on the numeric) CERAMIC DLC = 7/10 it feels like real Ceramic, it has this 'roughness' on the surface that makes it feels like real Ceramic. if you have ceramic dinner plate at home, it feels the same when you touch/ scratch the surface. However its so heavy. a total blowoff if someone pick it up, no ceramic is heavy like this. BRACELET = 7/10 as far as i concern, its all good. however it has Squeaky noise everytime you move the hinges. looks like it never been properly oiled. PICTURES = PLEASE Note , that the colour of the numerics are Not White like in the pictures. for some reason my iphone pick it as white, but its actually a bit BROWN/ VINTAGE like the genuine. Nice Crystal = LUME SHOT =

the Crown is SS not bronze like the gen.

Apparently other makers are making this too. (source : from RG forum) so let see if other makers (Kuvarsit, NOOB, H ) will deliver better product. IMHO the brushed pattern on this one, is not as good looking as the genuine. or maybe its me ... too picky.

I'm still not brave enough to pull the trigger for any AP with second at 12" read so many people said it broken after a while (due to extra gear to accomodate that) some says its an easy fix, just need to clean+oiled that extra gear to make it works again. but still not a Reliable watch at the moment.

go for PAM372

yep. happened to my hublot as well. try to open the rotor, clean the ball bearing in the middle, and all the other gears surrounding (reversing wheel) , and of course, you need to remove the bridge first .. then re-oiled it... and install them all back. if you dont have oil, just googled around. plenty on ebay too.

Hi Mr Doug, yes, some of them are Genuine pics. On Perfectclone site, you could see the "note" on each pic, to show which one is gen, and rep. for comparison. http://www.1-pc8838.com/ap00008-forge-carbon-diver-fcru-black-asian-clone-2824-p-13663.html If the link above doesn't work, go to http://www.1-pc8838.com and click on the Carbon Diver on front page.
