  1. I would recommend not to buy it. This "offer" looks like scam to me. Moreover, the watch posted probably is not a rep but a gen piece. Low end SuperOcean 42 uses incorrect glossy bezel, not rubberized like gen. Screws are placed at 5-15-25-35-45-55 markers and eges on the dial numbers look to me sharp. Also the lume dots look fine. Based on above stated i think this is gen, not a rep. Also if you google a bit, you will find this:

    And i think it is identical picture.

  2. Thanks MD2020 for your answer. I have used the word "sprayed" just to make my words sound somewhat less serious. I know that movement shoud when properly serviced is oiled litteraly by precise amount of drops. I remember a post by you or Rolexman that was redirecting to eta site as there was some interesting app showing how to assemble an eta movement step by step with oiling process. So i bear this in mind. However i am still a lay person and cannot say if the service was provided or nor as well as i cannot tell what is the quality of service provided by TDs. I was also searching for som reviews on this movement service here, on rwi and rg, but had no luck to find something. The fact is, that only pics that were sent to me were standard qc pictures + one timegrapher pic. So nothing were you can see the stripped watch or that the service really was provided, like you do (i have seen a7750 avenger you posted few months ago, but this "experience" was nothing like that). So i would be interested to see what the quality of movement service provided by TDs really is as well :) So i do agree if you are willing to have a look at my watch, we can get in touch. Maybe the service is really good and it can help a lot of people in the future. I will let you know via PM when i get home if you agree and we can agree on that. Can be?

  3. Get it serviced anywhere else. I tried it once, paid $120 for service offered by TT (for non chrono movement - SuperOcean 42), which should include waterproofing, oiling, time accuracy regulation and at QC it was showing +3 seconds per day. Somehow i do not believe it really was serviced. I believe, that timegrapher results were sent to me before the watch was opened, sprayed by all of those 4 oils and sent to me. In fact it is running avg. 20 seconds per day... For that price i could have it at least relumed. So you should better contact one of our great modders/watchmakers and ask them. You can read about their great work through the forums and it is worth it :)

  4. Isent that the ar? Maybe its a blackdial?

    It is AR for sure :) But what I am saying is, that mabe them guys at Breitling should make this model in the same color of the dial, as it appears due to AR on the first photo. I mean these watches with shiny blue dial possibly could be nice. Just imagine that :) Anyways, it is looks stunning (aslo with black dial) ;)
