Just out of curiosity, is the seller from the Netherlands?

the gen comes with second at 12... of course a reproduction closest to gen is preferred, but no, I won't buy this still

haha... red has never been my colour. Still sticking with safari.

Ofrei is selling the bracelet alone close to 500USD. Why not consider getting a used gen SMP instead? Your case still have wrong He valve, further mods required, you will end up higher than just buying the gen article.

To a certain extent, yes the old version is more accurate. Lacks of AR and not so impressive new dial on the newer reps kinda spoils the fun.

Ok... Just get a loupe for spectacles wearer. It looks like a headband with the mag glass in front, very similar to those protective goggles on chemistry lab. You get extra benefit of bifocal sight too~.

ok... while it's good but this sounds like a chain mail to me.

just seeing the aged tritium alone is mindblowing..

subdial spacing is different and you will have trouble aligning date window. Plus that extra flyback hand won't be functional anyway. PS: IMHO it will be wiser if you just got for 3717 with Asian 7750.

That's too bright of blue, in reality, it looks much darker.

Wish they do give free Patek... Or like Sultan of Brunei... keep giving out Rolexes.

he he he not bad eh Anyhow, they do have strong ties with Timex too...

you still can buy it from Ofrei. What you need is just the caseback number

Only reluming. Yes, the original out of box is really nice. Let me know which model you are looking for. So many combos for HBB at the moment. Mine is SS Tuiga, Brushed ceramic bezel.

water?

Have a great time today. Just came back from another party Anyway, yes, please post the pics.... and @addirk: I think I can fix your PAM hands, no problem Let me know when you are free, we can have a mini GTG. @cf: yes, we can have another one soon

For me it's a Submariner (modern)... modded, out of box or gen. Don't know why it just never calls me. The SSD comes close to this too.... lucky thing I swapped the insert immediately after I got the rep. On the other hand, gimme a vintage Sub/SD Rolex and I will think totally the opposite.

Yes, they do have Planet Ocean on them and is not interchangeable. They have different rubber strap number.

infact all prices has extra 0.

must have been a typo. 178?

agree... the cost will become rather high. Might as well you talk to the dealer to do all the dirty work for you so that you don't end up with 3 HBBs.

i use the bottom one too... works perfectly and never broke a single crystal (have removed many crystals) small to big... Biggest die on mine was 40mm, smallest is 12mm. and there are 2 types. one flat, another with "cup".

The minute hand looks OK to me....

Fantastic! The graphite looks very good IMHO.

I have received the case only on this piece. It has different serial number that the old one, pushers are slightly "bevelled" at the side, making it look more refined. Tube is larger than the the old SMP Chrono. Both rep crowns from the old one and gen crown won't fit still. Case to be of the same dimension as the old version. Crystals are interchangeable and bezel construction is the same. I would say it may very well be coming from the same factory, only with updated dial. I didn't get the bracelet though... No AR on this piece too
