can you believe they just raised the price on the black magic!! unbelievable...now its $748. guess its not doing too bad, although i only saw one or 2 people show pics of it here and none on RWI.
-
i have to agree with the majority....need the bracelet, although the pics of the gen dont look that bad with the black/rubber band. im not too sure if tag's have AR...i never saw a genuine tag with ar, but i guess if the rep has it and the gen doesnt i really cant complain. sure looks like the rep has it from looking at kings pics.
EDIT: just confirmed the gen does in fact have AR coating!!
can anybody confirm what king means when she says "have rubber strap with steel band."?? hopefully they do have the bracelet and she just didnt post pics yet.
anybody know how thick this one is??

-joining the HBB club soon-
got the latest Rose Ceramic Sexmachine from Angus
-impatiently waiting-
you will love it!! i am a huge fan of the hbb, although these do come with one problem.....youre other watches will not get any wrist time. also, be sure you dont stare at it while youre driving like i do....almost got into a couple accidents!!
-
great choice!! i also have the ceramic bezel and i have the ss hbb too...by far my favorite watches. you will now find it hard to wear anything else, but you big bang. wear it well.

as somebody else put it...im wearing my "navitimer on steroids"

I really like this watch but the AR KILLS me...even the new big date Bentley has strong AR...WTF?
italiano: the bracelet does look wider all around then the BCE...is this an optical illusion?
bce uses a 22mm bracelet/ strap....the world uses a 24mm bracelet. no illusion....the lugs are 24mm apart.
-
@ cy: yes they definitely need AR....and yes the subs are sunken....not sure if they are as deep as the gen, but they are sunk with the ripple you see on alot of reps.
@pix: wrist size as pointed out in my review is roughly 7 1/4- 7 1/2 inches.
@paulw: yes the gmt hand is set by turning the opposite way you would set the date. the time is set by pulling the crown out fully. the gmt is independent....in the new version, which has the same case back as mine.
thanks for the kind words fellas.

email sent. let me know where to send the $.
....that was easy.

i did an amateur review of the watch here.. http://replica-watch.info/forum/viewtopic.php?t=28885
@raijor: i am now using a dealer that i used to use a while back. from the experiences i have had so far his service has been amazing. PM if you would like a link to his site.
biggest flaw on the watch....NO AR!!!!
this watch desperately needs it.

***comparison with the gen***
***nice comparison with the BCE for size***

my new toy...

this one looks 10x better than the breit avenger seawolf...and very similar to it...since we had a good rep of that, this one should be easy to rep...really nice..dunno how the finish on the case could be done...lovely!...BTW...I like the combo w that strap...
i dont know why they shouldnt be able to figure out a way for a gunmetal case....ive seen that type of case in all sorts of watches...low price watches like invicta as well. here are some pics with a nice combo i think.
-
get em both.
-
love it!! i think it is the new limited edition skyland avenger. should be preety easy to rep since it looks almost like all the other breitlings, but uses a gun metal finish for the case.
by the way...you have by far the nicest avatar i have seen yet. very nice.

What i don't understand,is usually gold plated watches are not much more expensive than the SS ones,how come the gold plated BB is almost $300 more than the standard Ceramic BB ?
i dont know where you are getting your prices and to be perfectly honest with you i agree the price increase sucks, but the increase was no where near $300....i think its around $160

Makes sense to me. Individually, I have absolutely no idea why anyone would want to buy this watch, or, for that matter any watch that would require the A7750 to perform multi-functions. For the most part the A7750 tells decent time. I have a couple of them, but they only deal with the hours and seconds. Works pretty good, too. I'd rather spend my cash on a few MBW's, which I have, and get some quality. But, if you want just a show piece on your wrist to dazzle them (until someone has one calls you down) then go for it. Your cash, your loss. Tim
i have been holding my tongue on this topic for a while now. do i agree with the price tag absolutely not, but i would bet my bottom dollar that the majority of the people that are bashing the hbb dont have one or never had one. we all should know by now that the QC on reps is absolutely terrible so if you are going by what ONE person said about ONE of the hbbs he worked on you have to be crazy to beleive it is like that on ALL hbbs. i personally have 2, which i bought used for amazing prices ($655 total for ss and ceramic) and they have been working flawlessly. so if the hbb has such a bad movement or is such a bad watch i would love for somebody to show me ALL the bad reviews about it. there has been one so far i have seen. AND as you all should know by now members love to post everything that has gone wrong with their watches, but you dont see people posting about NOt having problems. everybody praises the SFSO, which sells for $300+ and i have seen a hell of alot more posts about people having problems with both the asian and swiss version. the design and finish of the hbb models are truely amazing and if somebody want to have only a couple reps and buy something they will truely love as opposed to somebody with 20+ reps i see no problem with that.
to the member above...what are you talking about??? the 7750 performing multiple functions?? its a chrono mvmt there is no special function the hbb mvmt does and it is the same mvmt that is used in the mbw AP watches. they both have the running seconds at 9. so if you like to spend $600 for an AP or a rolex that has very minor differences go right ahead, but you have no right whatsoever to bash somebody that wants to spend a little more for something he truely wants.
in all i agree that if people will buy reps at this price the prices will only go up. that is common sense and is general economics...supply and demand. if there is a demand they will keep the prices where they are, but none of us have any right to totally bash some guy because he really likes a watch and wants to buy it.
-
yes i totally agree. when i first got into buying reps he was the man i went to. his service and kindness exceeds anything ive experienced from any of our other dealers. nice thing is now he can get pretty much all the new stuff out there and he has been matching every price from our other dealers. im glad to see him back and i think i will stick with him unless there is something out there he can not get.

its been a long time since i wore one of my old favorites.

i know about that...that would be easy to rep...and if they would do a so called super rep...i think it would be sold a lot!
I have just found 100 of photos on the web for different models of AP ROO...I am going mad...i always liked the look of them...but since i purchased TTK's EOD...i am gone totally crazy!
after i bought my ss ap roo i have been drooling over all the pics on timezone. they have so many amazing models and i hear they will have the NEW version of the rubber bezel out very soon. my source says they just need a couple more parts to finish it. im all over that.
-
calm down a litlle bit..angus told over at RWI that this project is to be started or already started...don't remember now...but i think it will tak some time for rep makers to do it properly...
as for the AP's...bring on all the collection of AP ROO's...I wanna have one of each flavour!
check this out :
There is one last Royal Oak Offshore model introduced at SIHH, the Boutique Scuba Special Edition. It will be available at AP boutiques only, and is the same diameter as the traditional Offshore chronograph. The crown at 10 o
