  1. Hey Guys! I have just received my Rolex Explorer II with a Black Dial. Yes it is a lovely watch but i like to fulfill one of my little dreams ;) It should look alike the Blaken Explorer II. http://www.blaken.com/de/collection/explorer-ii I really love that watch.Therefore i asked Domi if he could help me out but unfortunately he denied. ;( Another Member of different forums " Avitt " isn't active anymore. Therefore i have one question for you: Do you know anyone who can help me out within the EU? I just asked a company here in Germany which could help me but they sounded not really confident as the usually treat tools only ;)  I would be so damn grateful if anyone could help me ;) Thank you guys!

    There actually is a shop, right now forgot his name...that does "coating" just let me google for it...will get back at ya

  2. I came around this badboy.

    Im known not to hesitate so Ive seen this watch and had to have it!

    Since the release was in 2013 at the Baselworld. Im really happy I had the chance to get this one.

    Hard to explain in words therefore heres the review!

  3. I came around this Gen, but people to be honest.....I wear my Rep DSSD more then this one.....whats wrong with me lol?

    Just kidding, the bracelet is just 18mm and the diameter is like 39, eventhough my wrist is pretty thin I just got used to big watchdiameters.

    On saturday I will trade this watch against a nice B1 from 2005. The reason I dont wear her to often is because of the size....the B1 might be the righ for me looks much sportier the this classic looking piece of art. Anyhow Breitling is da one I Luuuuuve ;-)

    My Question ( shout out to our watch-gurus ) what would be a worthy and fair trade ( watchwise, Breilting, Rolex)

    Is a B01...because of the movement a cheapo?

    Like I said if you want to help hurry up, shell be gone soon, sat is Dday....

  4. No problem here, I know its a very bad and poor made Rep I had in my hands....the overall feeling was just C.H.E.A.P, eventhough like I said what surprised me was the 7750 beating in there ( opened it up to check ) and the good dial appearance...

    Heres a picture from the face.....saph...cristal appeared for me as mineral and had water oilspots underneath and some junk was under it, too. Maybe youll be able to see, anyway a picture of teh dial ;-)

  5. No its not from the known dealers here....and I havent had the intension to bash or badmouth them. It was just my impression from one Rep I had the chance to look a little closer. Like everyone on here I suggested the guy who bought that thing, to give it back.

  6. 2 Ways to check the material:

    1. Poke out the pearl, normally just tucked in or poor glued,...underneath youll be able to see ...reddish or SS...

    2. Just take off the bracelet and look at the horns, if the surface looks smooth( because its coated ) but still has marks, fingerprints on it, dont know how to describe it better. Youll see it there definately if its just plated, coated whatever...instead of beeing the real deal....SS.

    Any material specialist on here who can verify?

    Now dont get me wrong Im not saying that EVERY Bo1 is like that, the quality of our watchmakers is comparable with many gens,

    just referring to the watch I saw and had in my Hands... What gets me confused and bothers me is:

    Bad Housing no Ref numbers on the bracelet nor the horns but still 7750 asia...1:1 Dial, markers? Why would someone mix match that?

    I saw watches beeing plated and after a year or so, depends on the wearing- frequency...the plated coat started to fade and apparently to peel off and the cupper-material started to shine through.....I say cupper but I mean brass( Messing )....

  7. Refering to the incredible good written reviews from RWG member by-tor and the chance I had to see a REP B01, a question popped up, wich wasnt described by noone here!

    A few days ago I had the chance to hold a B01 in my hands, a rep of course. The Rep had the Asia 7750 and the Rep Version with tabs integrated in the ring...not screwed, while checking the Housing of the Rep I found out, that this thing wasnt SS steel, it actually was JUST coated in a mirror glossy paint or something...something they use to coat frames, chrome aps...clearly and obviously you could see marks, overcoated, at the horns! Also I poked the Pearl out ( because it wasnt aligned properly ) and this thing fall out...while looking in the left hole I saw cupper-like( reddish ) material shining through the chrome coat.....since I own a gen Breitling with pilot bracelet... I can tell polished from coated.....

    Now my question is....are you guys sure you had SS Versions? For better explanation one picture is in the attachment.

    Thanx everybody!!!
