I just ordered a 42mm B&R w/ date from Angus. Oddly enough, the factories don't lume the dial of the orange version but do lume the white number version. I orginally went with orange but changed my order. Angus extends an apology to those people who ordered the orange thinking it has lume. All the hands do have lume.

I hope you're wrong about the orange dial not having lume. I just ordered one. If there is no lume on the dial, I'm going to switch to the white dial version.

From one dog to another, WOOF. Probably my favorite collection I've seen to date. All modded well and even some with "exotic" movements. Keepers for sure. I would say the only thing missing is a white dial Pam. Maybe a 113, 114, or 188. Well done!

Looks awesome. I'm going to make a purchase today.

I've lost one. Anyone have a spare/a whole case/a bezel? Thanks

No time to post every Pam pic, but here's my newest addition. Wasn't sure about 47mm, but clearly for me 47mm is the new 44mm. Just turned 40 and 40 is the new 20 too!!

Looks like a gen to me. That AR isn't found on the reps of the SA (unless you've done some mods) How about a wrist shot.

I have swam extensively with my asian SFSO over the past two weeks. Tight as a drum. Not bad for under $150

Looks great BBB. I think you need a 44m sub/Arkots/GMT or the like to round out the collection.

I know a jeweler in my home town with a Breitling Emergency that is FULLY encrusted with diamonds. You can see his wrist coming from a mile away. Very NBA baller look.

Easily the best looking custom "gen" I've seen. I'd flip that baby around just to wear it with the movement visible Great taste! I don't think I'll ever have a gold watch gracing my wrist, but if I did, this would be the watch.

If you think 28 days for $30 is a good deal, all the power to you. You may get 3 more hours, 3 months or 3 years out of your rep. It will still be a really aweful rep. Bears no resemblence to any Panerai ever made. If you like it great. In my eyes it belongs on the the top 10 list of worst reps every seen. Up there with the Panerai Urinor No offense. Just my humble opinion.

I'll let you two slug it out. I'll be back in a minute (gotta get some popcorn). The shark has tasted blood in the water. There is no way out! BTW-I really like the B&R. If only the orange special edition had lume like the gen. Get on this Neil!

I agree. I might just give the watch a try (find a seller with buyers remorse). The AR looks very nice and the crystal is sapphire. Some have superlume. Not a bad mix for less than $300.

Thanks Neil. Why would you lume the markers but not the hands on a watch? Makes no sense. Do any of the B & R watches have lumed hands and markers? I really like the orange on PVD look.

People like eye candy. It's the nature of our society. Many of us are gawkers, not thinkers or readers. Sad. I'd like to see a lume shot of the newest B&R watches. I'm tempted to get a 46mm with a rubber strap. Probably the exact one you have displayed. I've seen some great AR shots of that watch, but no lume shots.

Clean underwear and a Pam. Nothing else.

I know the 091 is real I'm going to guess one of the Black Seals is real as well. Who buys four of the same rep?

I got it from a Risti. It was a custom made strap (thick). I'm guessing it's either a Pam2Pam or KWong. Very nice workmanship. The leather under the ray is super supple.

I've dabbled in exotic straps many times over the past three years. Just got this. Love it, especially on the Arktos. This strap is no less than 5mm thick. Closer to 6mm at the lugs. Awesome pearl pattern. Nearly bulletproof. Killer buckle. Enjoy

Ouch-[censored] in your coffee??

Some people have asked for pics of my "modded" straps for my Ingy. Here they are. Skip the kevlar for this watch. It's a joke! The black has been modded perfectly while the tan is about 90%. I rushed it a bit.

Old case 196. Great watch.

I've heard the lume on the gen is one of the worst around. You may have outdone the real deal with yours. The Ingy is such a fine rep. My mother who is a jeweler agrees! I was at Tourneau in Chicago and they had no clue that it was a rep. Mine has quite a good AR coating to begin with. Datefont, smatefont. I've modded some very nice straps for my Ingy. Haven't posted here in a while. I'll post them this weekend if I have time.

Older version. I have that watch. Wear it almost daily.
