My bad! Just seemed odd that all the official pictures showed the numbers on the inside around the face with the 5 just past the 12 o'clock marker. Any idea why this? From what I can tell there is no way to move the number markers that are around the face around using the stem.

A rep!!! No issue with my sale, just concerned that the jewellers that I found the pic on my have sold a rep as a gen!

Trying to edit my post to highlight that I bought a rep, not a gen! Can anyone tell me how I edit my original post!

Hi plaifender Sorry, you've misunderstood / I've not explained well! The watch I bought is a rep and advertised as such. Saw pics and was happy to buy (although didn't notice the numbers were out). No big issue but I have a little OCD!!! When I was looking around to see how my rep compared to others and the gen, I stumbled upon the link which looked like my rep ie the number 60 lined up with 12 o'clock whilst the gen should have the 5 to the right of the 12 o'clock position like the official tag page I linked. Blowers jewellers (the link in my first post) have sold that watch for £1350! Hopefully that makes more sense! Certainly not been ripped of by anyone on the forum, quite the opposite! Sorry for any confusion.

Hi Guys Received a Tag Heuer Carrera Automatic Chronograph Tachymetre from another forum member. Really happy with it but I noticed that the numbers on the inside around the edge of the face were slightly off (see the 60 does not line up with the 12 o'clock position and is slightly too far to the right). I was having a look around at other pics of the gen and realised that the numbers on the gen should actually be as per the link below i.e. the 5 should sit to the right of the 12 o'clock position: http://www.tagheuer.com/the-collection/carrera/men/automatic-chronograph-tachymetre/index.lbl?w=CV2014.BA0786. I then stumbled across the website in the link below selling this watch for £1,350. However, given the positioning of the numbers this looks like a rep to me: http://www.blowers-jewellers.co.uk/images2/watch_images_pages/tag_heuer_watches_uk/Tag_Heuer_Carrera_CV2014_S12886.htm What do people think? Has someone paid £1,350 for a rep?! I may be completely wrong but I'm sure someone here will be able to tell for sure!

I was led to believe that all SW-200 movements on the Aquaracer 500m should have a pearl finish but I may be wrong. Can someone confirm? Here's a pic with a pearl finish: And one without:

Can anyone confirm if the SW-200 movement has to come with the pearl effect on the back? The reason I ask is that I have ordered one and the first QC pics I saw had the pearl effect on the movement but the bezel was mis-aligned. The second QC pics I saw were ok but the movement didn't have the pearl affect. This leads me to believe that it was the cheaper ETA movement. The reason I went for the SW-200 was the fact that it had the pearl affect like the gen so I just want to check that it always does have this pearl effect. At the moment I'm thinking that the second pics I saw were of the ETA movement. The movement on second pics I saw is below. Can anyone confirm the movement as I'm a bit if a noob!!!

Anyone other thanJosh offering this at the moment? He's out of the one I'm after. Thanks

Thanks Importr. Great info and appreciate you taking the time.

Had another reply from King and she has confirmed that the factories will update this after Chinese NY. I've also had confirmation from Mary that she has this in stock: .watch-international.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=101_110&products_id=2146&zenid=9aa8898f0509d3d1e68652c2665dfd8f (I've removed the www as I am unable to post links as a new member). However, it has a 43mm case so I'm imagining it's not a great rep. Anyone got this / got any comments on the accuracy of this model? Also any view on the asian 21J movement? Thanks

I should add that I'm after the black face with a SS strap and the is what I asked for when I got the reply above. Thanks

Hi I was trying to get hold of the Breitling Steelfish SuperOcean X-Plus but having read around here it looked as if I would be out of luck. Thought I'd email a couple of dealers anyway! Joshua came back asn said it was out of production. King came back and said "the best version made from hublot V1 factory. It will be stock again after Chinese new year". What's your view guys. Is this the best version and are they even still making them!!! Thanks
