Does the DayDate Chrono have the correct case size of 43mm now?

Until 2009 the rep still had same case like 41mm Carrera Date Chrono...

So did they correct it?

regards

Another small difference: The gen case has a cut out next to the crown.

I think its only visiable on back side.

Great watch anyway...

Edit:

Wondering if there`s gonna be a descent rep of the 38mm version...

Anybody got an idea what the respective ETA designation of Breitling`s Cal.37 is?

BUMP!

Is that Tangfolio?

I thought exactly the same

Edit: OMG I count 43 bad ass pieces in this beautiful collection, this is crazy! I`m jealous...

I`d like to know if the dials in swiss and asian version are EXACTLY the same.

I want to change the dials if possible without modding because of the colour...

I don`t think so. It depends on price setting...

I`m shocked. The outcome is amazing....

I guess there are just two in the world now, no?

yes lume is great on this one, how long does it last? Bet it depends on General Electrics

Stunning strap-combo, its custom made?

Since there are some models wich production stopped or aren`t released yet because of the lack of movements (Eta 2892 for example) the following idea came up to my mind...

How about letting our dealers produce some models without movements? They could produce some super-duper case sets, dials, hands, straps ready for movement installation.

So that we`d just have to install our own movements (new or used, who cares if you put it in a closed case back ? They can easily be sourced in the bay for example...)

Just a few models for suggestion:

IWC Mark

B&R 03-92

FM Conquistador

Pam027

List is endless...

kye_lin, I don`t think that DSN`s lugs are shorter then genuines, but standart rep case lugs might be longer.

Lookie here at Aquaracer`s fantastic review: (I hope its ok to put a direct link)

He says that his DSN 112 case is spot on to his genuine 111. And I don`t see any difference as well.

Looks great, next wristshot get the ground from 10,000 feet in the air, that makes for a compelling photo.

Yeah, make the "hight-test" as we already know that it`s waterresistant up to 300m but not shure about its flight ability.

Great picutures of a great watch in action by the way...

PS: Make the pic in a looping to see if the hands are tight

Great review sssurfer!

I already have a 39mm and a 46mm.

As 46mm is way too big for my small wrist I gave it to my bro.

The 39mm (swiss) is a very nice piece, unfortunately I ordered PVD/orange markers. For my taste somehow difficult to combine with clothing sometimes. Today I would prefer having chosen PVD/white markers.

OK, now the 42mm is availeable. I always wanted to have one of these. But what really, REALLY fugs me up is that it has no screw-in crown as you stated. Even 39mm version has it.. :-(

Hope the manufacturer is going to eliminate this flaw...

Everything else looks ok to me. Wear it in good health mate!

@mzimand1:

Is it possible that our manufacturer made a slightly different bezel then original? To me the rep bezel looks a little off in shape. It appears a little rounded, not so sharp like on the gen.

Maybe that the manufacturer tried to make it look thinner this way, because the rep-case is ~2mm thicker... :-)

I can only judge on the pics I saw on the sites of Josh, Andrew, King and those of a member on RWI - didn`t see the rep in person until now.

Edit:

Would be interested in someone`s (who already recieved the rep) comparison to gen
