nuclearboy Posted August 7, 2009 Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 My second purchase from Chris at Eurotimez, what ya think? the movement is the modded 7750 with the correct sub dial spacing. The quality is top notch (the crown feels much better than my seamaster chrono diver) and looks great on the wrist. Anyone seen a better version out there? PS anyone heard from Matz (mastmampf)lately? can't seem to get in touch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nuclearboy Posted August 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 Think I need a little more camera practice, these are a little to close for comfort. Must remember to dust as well, will do better next time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ThePhilosopher Posted August 8, 2009 Report Share Posted August 8, 2009 I like it quite a lot - not as much as the non-chrono version though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jawo Posted August 8, 2009 Report Share Posted August 8, 2009 I think this rep looks a lot better than the previous versions, but why can't they get the damn pearl correct? Is it that much harder to center it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayward Posted August 9, 2009 Report Share Posted August 9, 2009 Nice chrono...have to agree with Jawo on the pearl though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonow Posted August 10, 2009 Report Share Posted August 10, 2009 Nice watch I have been concidering this watch too is there any reason why it doesn't seem to be very popular. Is it just that the UPO overshadows it? I went and tried on the gen last week I love it. I really like this rep now that they've fixed the subdials but is there anything else that stands out(pearl) that I've missed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me it looks great but I concede I'm very much a newcomer to the rep world, can anyone give a bit more information about the pearl centring mentioned by Jawo and Wayward, I'm not sure what I should be looking for.

Jonow Posted August 12, 2009 Report Share Posted August 12, 2009 Welcome the pearl is the lum dot on the outer ring of the watch(bezel). In this case it sits at the bottom of the triangle, were on the original it is perfectly centered between each corner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dluddy Posted August 12, 2009 Report Share Posted August 12, 2009 Looks good. Thanks for sharing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the info, yes I wonder to why they havn't got this right it seems such an easy fix! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonow Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 I don't think there is a planet ocean that they've got right! It's a shame cause as you say it's something so simple. The upgrade to an original isn't that straight forward either. Still it's an awesome looking watch and I would be proud to wear it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t1mmy Posted September 17, 2009 Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 Got one of these recently from PT, and I really like it apart from.... the date is recessed too far and hard to read. Not a big problem, but once you know its there, it annoys you. the AR is very very blue, making the hands look like they are rose gold rather than polished steel. Other than that, its a great looking watch. I've got the leather deployment strap, and will check out Narikaa's new thicker ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtv2009 Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 Great looking watch,bet it looks good on the wrist. The pearl itself looks very good..just not centered.Its crazy that they can replicate a watch like this but still mess up centering the pearl!! Oh well,enjoy it..v.nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
