Oh that’s painful but it could of been worse at least the watch itself is fine and didn’t drop to the floor and break or lose it swimming. Like you say the heat and humidity has been bad and could of done that to a gen one tbh.

I switched out to the bracelet in this heat, learnt my lesson lol

Mmmm thats nice! I have a Royal Oak 15400 rep wonder if the bracelet fits the AP ROO. But I really am upset as I loved the orange strap  Ill have to buy another one.

Where did you get that rubber strap please?

If you do take your watches to swim or wear it robustly, during summer especially, invest in a good rubber strap. Yes there are many aftermarket ones which look good, but not every brand will be able to withstand the climate/water. I will recommend you try the SCUTA series offered by AP Bands (other than gen rubber, which surprising is prone to rips and tears too). They work well for all weather conditions, including sunny and very humid Singapore.

The strap came from aflop. I paid an extra $25 for the orange strap. Wore it twice. Again it has been real hot here. Never anticipated it to be so soft and rip! Have a look. @champsy

Thans to @legend for getting me in contact with @aflop. What a watch. What good people these 2 guys are. Thanks for all the help. This watch is gorgeous and I have not taken it off.

Geez its been a year since I visited and maybe 2-3 years since I was active!

Trying to do a lot of research to see what is good and bad. Have my eyes on a piece or two already just wish there were reviews. The DSSD from BK is an example. 

Getting reacquainted

Thanks for the email regarding the updated site. I forgot how much fun this place is! 

Whats the latest and greatest reps out there! 

I see BK's Deep Sea is stunning per usual. 

Thanks guys!

Guys I don't post much but have been around this site and the old one for a long long time. I have a Breitling rep Navitimer World that means something special to me.

I hooked up with Mike (md2020) hoping he could service the watch and prolong the life of this piece. Well we all know how that went. I was lucky enough to get the watch back minus my $250. The watch was destroyed, the bezel was all misaligned, the chrono wasn't working the chrono hand had fallen off. It was just a disaster. Any who I asked mike on a bike if he knew of anyone to help me get it right again. He pointed me to Misiekped.

Let me tell you Misiekped has restored my faith in humanity. He was nothing but honest up front and a total gentleman. Even though the watch had seen better days he took time to get it working again for me. I am truly grateful for his services and if we had more people in this world like him the world would be a better place.

If you need servicing hes your guy just don't bombard him and treat him with class as that's what he is!

Guys just an update regarding this as well. I too received my watch back and its basically destroyed. It doesn't keep time, one of the hands fell off, the other hand he replaced was with some blue not matching hand and the bezel isn't even aligned correctly. Im super pumped I paid this piece of sht $211 to service better yet DESTROY my watch.

Md2020 I gave u chance time and time again and u continue to just sht on people and have total disrespect for anyone other than yourself. One day my friend you will meet your demise and karma will serve u right.

Hi guys. Its been a while since I visited but I need to have my watch serviced. I sent vaclume and email but wondering if he still does the servicing etc.

Sorry if this is noob post just havent been around in a while

I DID do a search on what a franken is and cant seem to find the meaning?

But it doesnt seem to work aymore. I click on it and get an error.

Trying to figure out what Franken means as well as TW in reference to BK's subs?

Yep did the search after and found it. Like a noob I didnt use the SEARCH feature FIRST. my bad!

Hey guys been a while since I posted. I have had my PAM 111 and Breitling Navitimer World for a few years now. They still work perfectly. I couldn't be happier with the purchases. My question is well 2 of them.

1. Can I have the Breitling serviced and a new crystal installed by the same person? I would like to ad Lume to it as well. I had the A/R coating done to it couple years ago but now the glass is scratched a little and the bezel clicks like its not completely installed properly.

2. I also want to have the PAM lumed and maybe a/r coating.

I was hoping the same person can do this all or will I need to have the watched serviced by diff people. I believe Vaclume does the a/r bu does he do other services that I would like to have done?

Thanks guys

Hi does anyone know where I can find a case screw for a B&R watch I have?

Happy Easter everyone!!!!!!!!

I am leaving for Easter Mass. Little prayer then some really good eats!

No fluff here life is life.....

Dudro great looking watch especially on that strap, the color of the strap with the white face really makes it pop!

This may have to be an addition to my collection in the near future.

Another great addition to your gen stable! This watch isn't one you see a lot of so that makes it more special. Enjoy it and wear it well my friend.
