I know these were out for a while, but I fear we have to wail till Josh and Andrew get rid of their current supply of crappy ones... Chee, even dials look improved on those babies, carbon strap is better, with proper deployant, though the markers are facing wrong way still, not perfect but compared to crap 212's we can get now...I need to learn Japanese

Ya not alone mate, though I was lucky with watch deliveries. Parcelforce hasn't lose anything yet for me, but Royalmail did, and the bugger in those cases is that it is up to the sender to complain. And yeah, if those guys could "work it out" they would not be working for Parcelforce...

Looks like ETA.

I think the test would work if you compare two of the same shape crystals, the spread might be still different indicating which is which, not necessarily straightforward to tell if you compare two different shape crystals

This looks like the movement used in 253s, can't see it in 212's would be really nice if we can get hold of this version http://shopping.e-conveni.net/item_info.ht..._id=725321&

I suppose you haven't considered buying just the straps, you get a new watch each as well right?

Was Neil one of the patients?

This is funny, I had the 42PO, and then got the 45PO, the wife approved 45 forgetting I already have 42, when she saw both watches together, she concluded the 42 one is now for her bing smaller -- a nice genuine gator strap from Josh helped her in that decision

This is a good one if you are in UK: http://www.aatime.com/watches.asp?gsubcat=...4&cat_type=

What, ya don't have the new AP RO?

....aaa ya had to take Mini Morris example, with so many small Italian and French cars around

What you really wish to know is whether those movements are Chinese made Swiss ETA produced by an ETA-owned factory in China or the Chinese made copy of the Chines made Eta movement made by a Chinese factory that makes copies of Chines made ETA movements that otherwise ETA calls "Swiss", right? Simple.

Hey, chill down mate, their watches aren't any worst then the Chinese ones, just bit more rusty

...but when thieves become majority customers, then the honor among thieves might work against some of the thieves -- so to say...

ouuu, I don't think so, by the time Josh's PO arrives God only knows what will Joe do with the other PO, a bit of sand paper, hammer, and a drill can go a long way

45 and 42 version differ in that aspect -- I only noticed it myself when I got the 45 (used to think it will be just like 42, but turned out different)

I just got mine, lucky me (thanks Andrew) -- hope to grab some time for review, and wish things get up and running soon

how about they send us all watches for free coz we're such nice guys?

I suppose you didn't know Agnus is selling those dials separately for something like $30?

God does not love you, that's it. He might like you, but if you don't see attachments, he definitively does not love you

I need an HW on my ear drums, it might prevent them from breaking while diving, though it would not look as cool as on the watch

Juck, I inocently clicked on this lick, hey that is not fair, I will lose my dinner now

Let me guess, Minitab or SPSS? As for rep PO being as good as the genuine, well I think this is ultimate [censored]. Don't get me wrong, I just ordered one myself, but I am seriously considering getting a gen later on, here is why: 1. Gen has a modified 2892 with co-axial escapement, a much better movement then 2824 2. Of course, waterproof -- it is a bloody diving watch, it has only two functions, one is to be waterproof (OK I am diver, biased here) 3. The markers are likely to fall off eventually, yeah you can fix it but hell I hate when this happens 4. lume isn't anywhere close to gen, can be re-lumed though 5. The alarm does not work on the rep (OK, I could not resist )

Hmm...I checked my 42 PO, everything is straight, can't find a flow -- damn thing is +2 sec a day, really not sure what batch are these crucked-marker PO's coming from...and yeah, I got mine from Paul, surely a drop-ship item

I don't care if he drops a ship, for as long as he does not drop any of the watches before shipping 'em
