Hey dude, which series from Hirsch did you try? I think I read somewhere on the gen forums that someone did successfully mount a hirsch on his JLC NSD though but there are no pics to back up his claim. http://forum.tz-uk.com/showthread.php?187100-JLC-Master-Compressor-Navy-SEALs-Pic-fest/page2 scroll to the 5th post by Andy where he mentioned about mounting a Hirsch Medici.

this is what we call "swinesse" movt. anyway for me, i would rather buy an Asian movt and have it serviced. anyway just some heads up to OP, the last i've check with Toro, about 1-2 weeks back, he only has the Swiss movt available.

just a quick check, the notch inbetween the lugs are quite annoying, has anyone tried straps with curved ends? something like those from Omega POs?

having already owned the 42mm pumpkin version which is imho one of the best omega otb reps, but would love to lay my hands on the 45.5mm as i love big watches! hopefully soon by then all the flaws will be fixed!

i'm curious too if the those gen parts that are available from cousinuks or ofrei which the current UPO v5 accepts could also be installed on these new CPOs?

heres a quick wristie of mine!

based on some recent research, there are a few makers who you can source for IWC BP straps. Orloff Jacobs straps Gorilla Leather HKTAN peter.watchacc kay straps APBands TheStrapSmith Strapluxe *not ranked in any order...

Hey PeteM, what are the "tells" on the V6? I'm actually considering getting the Big Bang 44mm Steel Ceramic 2011 soon from the TDs. Appreciate if you could share abit as imanoob when it comes to Hublot.

thanks for the awesome pics! this new 219 superep really looks freaking good! its really scary as for a min there i thought it was a gen when i first saw the pics, and the CG is really nice! almost bears some uncanny resemblance to those sold by the CG specialist modders. wear it well mate! think im about to hop on the 219 bandwagon soon!

thanks for the headsup! wow thanks for the detailed breakdown on all the available xtals, might consider replacing the xtal on the dsn 24A with an ultimate one.

just curious, would a crystal off an ultimate 199 fit a dsn 24/25 caseset?

will there be a GTG soon? i would love to see this baby too!

great mate! pls do post up pics of it once its here! im sure alot of geeks would wana know hw it matches up to the gen.

the 312 is really popular, almost as popular as the Luminor Bases over here where i am. i believe the cartels and dealers are already selling this model too rite? but am not sure if its accurate or gen-like enuff thou.

Hi mates, just wana find out between this 2 dials, which one is more accurate and genlike? I understand that the Ultimate's second hands dial's grey colour is a tad too dark compared to the Gen, but im not sure about DSN's version. Any kind inputs is greatly appreciated! Cheers! Ash

Hi Mate, I believe you meant his tabacco dial 118 instead? TS's 112 has been sent for a lume job. @Euphoricall78: Nonethelss, you have very nice watches! Wear them in good health! Cheers!

Hi Mate, Im not sure if this method does help, a friend was telling me that he used red tea to create the aged look. mayb other fellow enthusiast can chime in on other known methods too? Cheers! Ash

am looking around for 1 too! so far based on user reviews, the V2 rep strap is much betta then the V1 rep. for me, im lookin for gen ones bt they surely will cost a bomb!

sorry guys thou abit OT but since we are on gen bracelet on IWC watches, anyone knows where i might be able to source for a gen kevlar strap & titanium buckle usually found on IWC's topgun? any infomation is greatly appreciated! Cheers! Ash

thats a real lovely honey brown croc hornback you got on chiu PAM! mind sharing whos the craftsmen behind it?
