Which NEW modded DSSD from perfect clones? Could you provide a link?

Sake (the beverage)

hmmm.. interesting. I'm wondering how long supplies will last and whether or not this will apply to other models that use the same case? i.e. the 253?

Ahh I get it! I don't think that there's any chopard available with a Blue dial.. at least of the GTXL series... your choices are limited to black, white and grey......

Sorry Val! Thought i put you down a long time ago! Next time just add yourself to the list! Now you're number one... 1. Valerian 2. petem (2) 3. BigE 4. Chudd 5. Paulw 6. Repwatch 7. Bosk 8. Nakortheblue 9. Rickhic 10. Z3k0 (2) 11. panerisiti(2) 12. jcrry (2 or 3) 13. Pabler 14. Lanikai (2 or more) 15. Sidedish 16. cbd21(2) 17. Slan93 18. Cchrono 19. Deniz21 20. Bynico92 21. Ewing

I still rest my case.. 97% the same.. and the gen watch came out in 2007..... it's a 3 year old design.. just now being released.. although i have to admit it looks nice.. that big useless button on the left side just doesn't convince me especially if it's not functional.. kind of like the topgun with doppelgraph function and that big button on the side that serves no purpose.....

hahahah That's awesome. when did this project happen??!!

take a shard of mineral crystal to the new crystal to see if it resists scratching!

Updated list of interested folks... 1. Plaifender 2. petem (2) 3. BigE 4. Chudd 5. Paulw 6. Repwatch 7. Bosk 8. Nakortheblue 9. Rickhic 10. Z3k0 (2) 11. panerisiti(2) 12. jcrry (2 or 3) 13. Pabler 14. Lanikai (2 or more) 15. Sidedish 16. cbd21(2) 17. Slan93 18. Cchrono 19. Deniz21 20. Bynico92 21. Ewing p.s. Prices are still not official and I can't mention anything specific, but offshore tells me he thinks the price will be SIGNIFICANTLY under $100/crystal. The sample crystal is still in the mail.. and his chinese partners are on standby ready to hit the ground running as soon as we get the sample calipered, photographed and sent to them. hold tight!

So who will be their guinea pig... I can't believe josh has a version that's $278 with mineral.. and for $10 more you receive a wath with sapphire.?????

Thanks a lot Robo, You might want to adjust your monitor setting because the dial on this watch is definitely BLACK and not blue When you ask me where I got "mine" from.. are you talking about the watch or the strap? I got the watch almost 3 years ago. I don't remember the dealer.. but i think it's from Josh. I just got the new strap last week from strappedfortime

Do not pry it off! it's ceramic and NOT flexible like most metal inserts are. Prying it off could result in a nicely cracked peice of ceramic on your wrist

Colorao has spoken with Andrew today about the crystal on this watch. Andrew insists that the model is new and never produced and HAS sapphire glass... His 212 models are also advertised as such, but this is the one he says that "really" has it. Can anyone confirm this crystal as being sapphire.. If it is indeed "sapphire" why should we believe andrew and josh now.. when they've always used these advertising schemes to draw in more customers? This all goes back to the "little white lies" thread....

Firstly... you mean 253.. NOT 235 The strap was bought from timeconnections... We're organizing a group deal for Sapphire crystals for the 253 if you end up getting the Pam. It's a great watch but is only available in mineral crystal.. Once we get these crystals made.. my watch will be even nicer!!!

Let's see some more

Everyone that has a 253.. should post pictures here! I know this is an oldie.. but with so much 212/253 talk going on around here.. I'm curious to see everyone's 253's! mine with painted chrono needle

Denz.. you could try sending a PM to GioArmani.. he seems to be the resident authority on all things DSSD....

wow.. no idea.. does it still click or is it completely loose now?

No news on the 286... I had no idea this was planning on being repped... since when? Why would they rep a watch that has no actual rattrapante function and is 97% exactly the same as a 253????

Makes sense to me.. since even for a factory.. it's MUCH easier to lathe metal than to sand ceramic. especially since they have all the appropriate equipment to do so.....

I have a v5 already.. but this version's bezel seems so perfect. My bezel numbering seems barely just a little thinner: (or maybe it's my imagination)
