Phone are really nice and sleek. I wish they would make the buttons bigger. They way it looks now I would fat finger those buttons

Its all in the detail of this watch. As i see it the "automatic" letters are too big. Also the biggest flaw on these, has always been the open caseback.

I guess this one is not made from 1:1 with genuine as sample

Probably spent it all on buying on u-boats to copy.

Interesting read and comments. I have been asked once and it was 3 years ago wearing my gen SA. Then someone commented on a look a like quartz breitling bentley as gen. Can you believe it? If I get asked again, my answer would be well what do you think?

I think we've covered this part before - you have to look the part or look like 'you have arrived' as someone mentioned. Otherwise, the likelihood of being asked goes higher. But a collector will definitely be very interested and may even ask.

He's been seen wearing the chopard for the last 2 seasons of american idol.

It is actually a limited edition put out in Japan or somewhere I read on the breitling forum.

There is a lot of truth in this. Not sure if any have seen or picked up an asian watch magazine...it is full of models specially for the asian market only.

From honpo. Following suit it of the submariner?

The 029 is definitely a rep. That dealer in yor country have some explaining to do.

That picture in the book is a mystery. Maybe perhaps it was a 'dummy' model for picture purposes? Who knows.

That is definitely crazy pricing. Its basically an new version of the same model that is already out. Is this like v3 or v4 now?

Came across this limited edition with starting bid at 320k!!

Just saw tonight's episode. The character Ari Gold was wearing what appears to be a AP Royal Oak chronograph. There was gratuitous flashing all throughout the episode.

If the seller is drop shipping then it would not entirely be the seller's fault...it would be the shipper and the seller would not know that unless notified by the buyer. It would still be up to the buyer to ensure that you get what you ordered.

I collect what I want to wear.

I agree with your comments. I watched CNN this morning and there was a segment where she said to the effect of - I may not have answered all your (moderator) questions but I will speak to all the americans... That sounds like a reply from someone who came ill prepared. Her expression and tone could do better in delivering the message. The CNN viewer poll shows Biden won.

I ask the same question...why so expensive?

The cheaper mesh bracelet is 2.5mm thick versus 3.2mm. The cheaper also will not fit the SOH because the lugs are 24mm.

Or but one here for a fraction of the OEM cost.

Nice. Both steel and leather versions look hot!

It's a rep! They're onto you.

There's more truth to that than you think. I saw a spitfire on display next to 2 Bentleys (La Swiss was there doing promotions) and spoke to the gentleman sitting next to the plane. Then I saw another on the tarmac and noticed the size difference. The gentleman noticed my double take and told me that his was a replica spitfire....a couple of feet shorter but can fly just as well as the real one. Incredible for someone to put it together and most are fabricated. I would not have believed if I did not see it.

Thats a good comparison. I was bothered by the date window position and this comparison help reduce/remove that....I mean I can barely tell and would not at all from a few feet away.

Try Omega Double Eagle Constellation or AP RO jumbo next time...at about 40mm, it would not look too small compared to your larger reps.

Wow that is something. I saw a Lancaster in the Oshawa air show early this summer. Got to go inside the bomber for a donation.

Looks nice, though the biggest flaw maybe the display back.

That for sure and we will have to wait for v2 for the ultimate 1:1

@mrreynolds - I think judging you maybe part of it but not entirely because you brought with you a Rolex that he thought was gen. So for you to have a AP ROO was probably not a surprise but a curiosity because it is not a common watch and he may have one in his collection. There is to my opinion very little means to tell from a foot away to tell if the AP ROO is a rep. He commented on the overall finish because he could not call out the specifics (i.e date spacing) - to me this is just a general means of agreeing with you that it is a rep without knowing for sure. I bet he is probably bothered by the fact that you spent much less than he did.

I was flipping though Men's Vogue magazine and saw this ad on IWC DaVinci. Not a bad looking dress watch. The case shape is eye catching...its got that new retro look to it. If they make a rep out of this one it will probably the only IWC I will own. I am pretty sure they will mess up the DW The case is 42mm across. What do you guys think?

Cool review Lani. It inspired me to get one too. Thanks.

The size is 40mm? Does it wear like one?
