  1. Thought you were posting new stuff....this is the long released new ROO. I like the ss ceramic version....we will see a rep of this new 44mm watch end of this year. Theo
  2. Absolutely correct....had the pleasure to wear my mates watch last year for a day...the size of 46mm leads in the wrong direction, it wears like a PAM and the ceramic makes it a bit lighter. The black color adds some more trick to the eye and makes it appear smaller. Theo
  3. Bad combination.....I think that hornback straps need simple and easy looking watches like WHITE or BLCK THEMES. The Driver Boutique is so buisy on dial and bezel, has got so many aspects in it, it deserves a simple strap....I wear my TA2010 on a grey calf strap from AP bands. Theo
  4. mmmmhh....I have to disappoint you and all the others on the fence....the model displayed in the video will be the one they´ll ship out....only the H-valve will be added/updated. So we have to live with the thinner size....anyway, I made my pre-order allready and hope to receive the watch when I´m back from my holidays. Theo
  5. My honst opinion on the 4k DIVER...the factory is just lazy to adjust their CNC programms for the DIVER. They might use equal data as for the King Powers but they can easily re-do the sizing and... - add some millimeters to the underlayer of the bezel - add some millimeters to the caseback - add some millimeters to the sandwich case - add some millimeters to the crystal Fingers crossed for the real-release model....should be ready this weekend. Theo
  6. mmmmh...I still have 4 weeks before the baby will be on my wrist. Theo
  7. OK Melissa...now I know more information about your brother....that VIP thing is important. So I´d suggest the ROSEGOLD MARCUS....unknown in the States (as it is a LE for a UK jeweler)....rosegold is flashy but does not look cheap....the red accents make it an eye-catcher and the stingray straps makes it even more interesting. Go for it...a perfect match for HIP HOPPER and white dressed sheiks. Theo
  8. I am so excited.....hope to see the first watches delivered end of next week. Theo
  9. Great result.....I am on the fence for the same mods but as you said...my last high-end reps cost less than all the mods done. Theo
  10. thx for sharing. But are these gen parts?????? Theo
  11. Why so picky? I ordered mine, knowing that some minor flaws will get solved before market-release and all other flaws I can live with. Hey, this is a 340$ rep....great price for the Titanium you get back. Theo
  12. My order is placed as well.....a wonderful rep with amazing 1:1 quality. I don´t care about the missing split seconds. Ordered a black croc black stitch pilot strap already, together with an IWC-like black PVD deployment clasp it´ll look awesome. Theo
  13. No problem, there are thousands of used smell sized gen AP hornbacks on the market.....NOT. Sorry mate but its more likely you´ll win a lottery than finding a small sized gen AP hornback strap on the Bay. The small sizes are very sought after but if you wanna risk a look, try eBoy in Asia (Spore, HK,...) and save your request and eBoy will automatically send you a message when a new auction with your relevant text comes in. Good luck Theo P.S.: you might also get lucky and post a WTB request on ThePuristS
  14. We will see a newly released 360 from the cartell in the next weeks. Theo
  15. Yes of course....and monkeys fly out of my back.....would you trust a webshop that advertises his reps with pics of gens? NAAAAHHHH!!! Theo
  16. There is nothing the buyer can force the seller to do with a PP dispute....PP will ask for the purchased goods being sent...that happened. If the Goods are no good both can agree to send them back to the sellers addy and get a full refund once re-shipment is in. BUYER remember....you are dealing with counterfeit goods here....don´t cry out too loud. There is always a way to resolve with a good dealer...but the customer should be a smart a** as well. Theo
  17. Unfortunately only the 2nd video is working....the DIVER still looks too thin. Theo
  18. Nope...only cheapo quarz version. Would love to see and get one though. Theo
  19. 1) you should find a fast and easy solution and get a cheapo pin-buckle from the Bay....and then 2) you contact your standard dealer, they should be able to sell the clasp seperately Theo

    Top Gun V2

    2 new IWC Top Gun´s TOP GUN 3799 ceramic...46mm diameter TOP GUN 3789 ceramic...44mm diameter I ordered the first one... Theo
  21. Nice find and read...allthough I´d be more interested in a rep-DIVER dive review Theo P.S.: I fear that my DIVER cannot take a shower as I can see a tiny gap between caseback and case and there is no gasket inbetween afaik.
  22. Well....where to start with? If you are more a RLX guy and the PO42mm is a monster on your wrist, you´ll have problems wearing the AP DIVER. Allthough the DIVER has the same size as the ROO, both 42mm, the latter wears smaller than the DIVER. This is due to case thickness....the ROO is thicker and the DIVER sits more "around" the wrist....I got the DIVER from my friend who has 6.3 wrists....it was too big for him. I do have 6.8 wrists and the watch fits fine. I´d say go with the JUMBO, its 39mm sounds small but due to the case construction with the integrated lugs, the watch is actually a nice size. Unfortunately there are only bracelet options as the strap-options are the cheap china pieces and will not fit the ultimate Jumbo....beside those, there is an expensive APBands conversion kit....overpriced and not 100% garanteed fit. So go with the JUMBO....decide for white (more classic), black (more formal) or blue (more sporty) dial option and ask one of our big dealers here. Hope this is of any help, cheers Theo P.S.: errh and talking about the 5711....forget it, its a tiny tipsy watch.
  23. Try the shops from salvation army....they have all kinds of stuff from the past. Theo
  24. Have my AP DIVER on the wrist for the last 5 days now.....the bezel screws look horror in the pic but are very accurate and alligned in gen....bad smartphone. Theo
