Curiouser and curiouser (as Alice in Wonderland would say!) ...

Nice one !!

Just got an email from Panatime offering 35% off their great straps and accessories for the next three days. If you are interested, the coupon code is CYBER2011.
Panatime do some very nice straps. I was going to place an order until I found out it was going to cost more than the price of the strap to send it to the UK !!

OK, I know it's a gen but I love it (and no one reps this beauty !!)
-
Great tutorial !! You're a braver man than I Gungadin !!

Love Breitlings but the Bentleys just don't float my boat

I use a spray on silicone oil, give the whole bracelet a good squirt and then wipe off the excess. On the can it says it's: "transparent (ie clear), odourless, non-toxic, water-repelent, economical and lubricates very effectively". I think that ticks all the boxes !
-
Not something I would wear myself (I'm not a gold watch sort of person) but that bracelet really goes well with the watch - a huge improvement over the leather strap.
-
One of my favourite reps of all time - good choice ! Your photo taking skills are none too shabby either - well done !
-
Not sure if this is a fake but it smells fishy to me.... http://cgi.ebay.co.u...E:X:RTQ:GB:1123
Picture 4 is not even the same watch (note the different bracelet and I think it's not even a chrono!).
Correct me if I'm wrong, but the sub dial spacing looks wrong and (although difficult to tell at the angle the photo was taken), the He valve looks too low.
This watch, if you could still get this model would only retail for £2400 (going on similar current models) and he is asking just shy of £3000 !
What do you guys think? Gen or fake?

Interesting that there's no date window...

Yes and they even pray dukati style.....
NOW we're talking !!!
-
If it's just entirely for show, and to try and get laid here and there no one is the wiser..
I must be going wrong somewhere - none of my reps (or gens !) have got me laid (yet!!)

Very nice, any chance of a pic showing direct sunlight reflecting off the crystal, like the first AR'less pic?
Here you go Mickey, please excuse the quality of the shot, I'm not a very good photographer and I only have a Kodak compact, however, with one of our (very) rare hot sunny days in the UK, today, I took this out in the garden, in full sun :

OK, OK, here they are !! :
Pre (no) AR -
Post (double) AR -

Wow looks great! How is the AR hue/colour at various angles, is it a blue/purple?
Have you tested the scratch resistance?
Hi Mickey
It's early days at the mo and I haven't deliberately tried to scratch the coating. Having said that, it seems fairly robust against general day to day bumps and knocks. The hue is more in the reddy/purple spectrum but it looks very good with a HUGE reduction in reflection from a standard, non coated crystal.
I'm waiting for another crystal to come back for my SMP Chrono and as soon as it gets here, I'll get some photos out.

Here are a couple of shots of my 007 LE SMP with double AR vs my gen SMP Co-Ax:

I press a button and ask it and it tells me!!
I couldn't even tell you what my phone looks like!! Got the Nokia N8.

Wish you were in the US.
I'll take crystals from anywhere - I'm not proud !!
-
Good luck! i'm holding out.. but best wishes with your first run!
Thanks!
