Regardless of the drama, I'm quite excited to see this dial I personally love the zero!

This is really exciting news! Always wanted a really good zero dial!

Clone

Was the paper quite textured? Seems the ink was touching the raised portions causing the dot effect?

Really would come down to the quality of the final product, as 2k is a bit of money, but if done well I can't see why 15 wouldn't sell

Great info, I'm well aware of this because I damaged a 2836 movement by not being aware of this, just so everyone knows this only applies to the 2836 and not the 2824 which has a much different date change mechanism.

I'm amazed and shocked that this works and can be done! wow you learn something everyday! I've always cut a small portion of the crown off around the stem to be able to grab the stem and unscrew it, it works but the new stem does not screw in as far(obviously...) 

It's creative, It's soot from fire damage like a watch that was saved from a burnt house and poped a new plexy in her and threw her on the wrist... I see where you were going with it. I'm about to start a vintage myself, more your standard vintage thou haha. 

Many moons ago I had heard that "fakes" were getting better and better and out of curiosity and fear for being ripped off on my next gen purchase I decided to start researching a little. I found all the typical swiss AAAAA++++++++++ sites but wanted to know more.....after some searching I ended up here, this was the first real rep forum I signed up to and I found so much useful info here, detailed reviews, trusted dealers that seemed to keep posting up new releases, it was exciting, I didnt come here in the search for replicas, I simply didnt want to be ripped off, but I ended up finding a hobby I really love, and it truly wouldnt have happened if I had never found this forum. For that I thank you RWG.

Merry Christmas to all

Haha I was going to say Disney myself!

We need more talk about this one, more pics, reviews, excitement, just more seawolf period!

Guys the dial has improved!!! I hated the thin number dial's of the old wolfs, but these look great! and the lume dots rock on the yellow! I'm so excited!!!

Hmmm I love josh as a dealer but I suspect that's the business man talking. Seems like stock is still arriving to some dealers.

As much as I loved my ss V6 BB I could not for the life of me make it comfortable! My conclusion was that I required a smaller strap in order for that style strap to conform to my wrists. But I didnt want to invest the money on a short gen strap to find out I was wrong and take a loss. Anyways, I would still have a hublot if I could make it comfy to wear, but unfortunately no amount of sanding, bending, or forcing the rubber to bend for prolonged periods of time could make her truly wearable for me

Ive been thinking of a snowflake for a while, I looked at Phong's over at JAW and think they look decent but there a little pricey, is there anything that comes close but a little less money?

Thanks guys!

very nice Dutchy! Hope you enjoyed your vacation! I'll admit it.....that gold hublot looks great too! What are the specs on it?

Is it one of those markets that enthusiasts could never dream of getting into? I realize there is no web site for it, but is it near impossible to find these pieces, or are there members here that get to enjoy such reps? I always thought the Br03-88 was one of these reps made to deceive since its only sold with all the packaging, I kind of hope that more of these reps start to pop up, I know there not for everyone, they are quite costly but the br03-88 rep for example is a great watch for the money because its so close to the real thing it might as well be.

Added the Skyland. But the BR02 has wrong lume? Lume is green on the rep while the gen is blue? Thats a big flaw if you want to be "best of the best"

Is the 005 v1 better then the current offers you think? Any other pam experts that want to comment on this?

I guess the lume is a tell but not one that would bother me, considering no one inspects my watch's in the dark Day time acuracy is there thou, and if we bring lume into the equation then most reps would fail, like the skyland, barely any glow, as most rep lume prier to 2011.

As for the v1 005k, I compared it to the latest 111N, I was desperately looking forward to the new noob offering and was disappointed when it arrived, it is not finnished nearly as nice as the v1 5k was, machining marks where the lugs meet the case, lug screws not as flush and the non threaded side has the holes a little bigger so theres slop in the lug screw, the CG lever was not flush to the CG body, over all not as nice unfortunately

Ohhhh and the 42mm 3 hand MB Timewalker! Also great!

From what I've had go through my hands I'll agree that the skyland is very good, also 42mm super ocean, 46mm heritage chrono. The B&R 02 wouldn't be called on the wrist, the h fac v1 005k was amazing quality. Those are a few I've really thought were good.

I'm so happy!! This is amazing! Never thought it would come so soon or be this close on the first try!!

I asked this question once but Angus mentioned he just updated the pics but the watches are the same, might be a typo, I was excited when I thought they were updated with ar.....

I remember reading that the domed sapphire was very difficult to cut and the Chinese failior rate was 4 in 5. but now with the noob being successful hopefully we will get out 44mm crystals

I hope someone pulls though! I've wanted a 212 sapphire since the new batch came out last year. So far there has been multiple attempts but no one has been able to pull it off

I heard a rumor that taka might make one too, dont remember who wrote that. Maybe if we're lucky some one like Noob will release a model with a domed sapphire that I can cannibalize.

I want this soooo bad... This was the one watch that truly excited me that it was being produced. Sad.....hope a v2 comes from this that is superior
