Hey, can someone PM me the top secret info? Thanks!

That looks like gold rehault to me. What I see wrong is the printing on the dial is gold, it should be white. Also, the knurl looks flat on the silix version.

How is the ceramic bezel compared to the "ultimate" version?

As you can tell from the pictures the knurl is different by a smidgen. More pointy on the Ultimate. Other than that it looks similar, reflections dancing all over it.

You know after wearing it a while and looking at some GEN photos. I like the silver rehault better. It coordinates with the silver H screws. Who knows maybe one day Hublot will make one like this since there's so many GEN variations out there.

For the flat head screws I used my Bergeon's Nine Piece Screwdriver Set. I also have a H screwdriver which I made myself from cheapo screwdrivers I got from ebay when I started out getting watch tools. The H screws are on there pretty tight. I think it's liquid lock because I notice some residue on the bezel.

Pix, you're right, this is a good alternative to the higher priced versions. It has that wow factor and at the end of the day I'm very pleased with this watch.

First of all, Watchmark came through. Very accommodating, good packaging and fast shipping.

All these reviews and you guys missed one big detail.

I'm disappointed at you guys. I'm also disappointed at myself not noticing it either before purchasing.

Ummm. The rehault is not gold!

I notice the higher priced version $780 not the Ultimate has the gold rehault and maybe a different dial. But I wouldn't pay that price for that.

Guys, tighten your flat head screws. All of mine were loose! Also, in case if you're wondering, mine didn't come with blue screws on the movement.

Oh well, on with the pics. Posing next to my Ultimate ceramic SS.

Not the RG + black bezel model, I am afraid.

Don't be afraid, there are.

There are black screws on some of the GENs.

Just got word from Watchmark that it's 5mils plating and no black date wheel option. What the hell I'm getting one!

I suggest you get it serviced on your own. Who knows if it's actually serviced by the dealer you purchased it from.

Look into bklm1234's submariner. It's a custom made to order, it's a little more on price but good out of the box.

You go for the HBB, that is what you do.

Let me tell you guys my experience.

The parts pictured I got from Davidsen. I used it for my Swiss 6497 along with Davidsen's superlumed hands set.

When I did my Asian 6497 I got from Eddie Lee a year ago. No cannon pinion & hour wheel was needed. Only used another set of Davidsen's superlumed hands.

I love the Super Nato.....Looks Great!! I have quite a few of the Nato's and they seem a little on the thin side....these really look thick and comfy....Would you mind terribly if I ask where you bought these....I'd love to get a few for myself...

Cheers,

I got it on ebay. < (LINK) This one is fairly thick, if any thinker it won't fit the watch.

I love this watch. I just love the dancing reflections on this piece. The knurled side of the bezel dances too!

I'll buy another one when they update the Ice Bang.

I own this one.

The mechanism is good but the rest sucks. It gets the job done though.

Each rotator has it's own motor. It rotates bi-directional timed interval. It doesn't have settings just on or off 2 at a time.

The glass is made of plastic. There's no lift and no lift arm.

Now if they could only make the damn thing comfortable on the wrist.....for the 1st week I loved it...little by little the clasp began to bother me.

I know what you mean. I modded mine with electrical tape; hardly noticeable and the pain is gone.

Bingo. You have a KEEN eye, Evildee!

Dunno.

Interesting.

Yes.

Not sure if I can tell him this, since wouldn't everyone else get the same? Please let me know, since there's time until Monday.

I don't think he can do anything about this. Plus the lume on the dial is not up to par with superlume. You're gonna have to buy a replacement dial from someone else and relume it with superlume C3.

I'll list the inaccuracies.

The Officine Panerai Firenze is not painted in.

Crystal profile is wrong?

The 1 at 12 is wrong.

Matte dial

Thin dial

Crystal AR

That could be a GEN. Looks like it to me.

Does anyone know how thick the gold plating is? 10 microns?
