jdkno Posted November 19, 2009 Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 I am wearing my Link Chrono today and while I have had this since a few months after they came out I just noticed something on it today. I noticed that the chapter ring blue does not match the dial blue. The chapter ring looks like a lighter and more shiny blue where the dial looks more matte and royal blue. Is the chapter ring supposed to match the dial 100% color wise?? Also has anyone tried this watch out on a leather or rubber strap? Would like to see pics if you have.

hackR Posted November 19, 2009 Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 i don't have the watch with me here at work...but he's some pix of mine with chief's double AR... not sure what you see...i'll hav to look closely at home...but this watch has a dial that changes with lighting...so you're probably not crazy...

DaveC Posted November 19, 2009 Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 Looking at mine I can see what you mean, but if you refer to HackR's photo's, you can see the difference in surface finish - more polished on the ring, more matt on the dial. I think it's just the differnce between reflected and scattered light. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdkno Posted November 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2009 Some pics of my Blue link Chrono AC Lani Thats it, the way your chapter ring looks on the 3:00 side of the dial, kind of that chrome blue look thats the way my bezel looks almost all of the time in anything but the most faint light. Is that normal?? It NEVER looks as dark as the dial under normal lighting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dig it .. it will alternate shades in different lighting. this being one of the more accurate reps of the past I am confident the genuine reacts the same. as the chapter ring is metallic ,.. unlike the dial. even the dial will fluctuate colours .. especially with chiefs AR coat where all the light bounces directly off the dial and not the crystal.

hackR Posted November 20, 2009 Report Share Posted November 20, 2009 once the crystal is treated with chief's double AR, this watch screams gen... a truly amazing dial...and packaged in the uniqueness of the brushed bracelet you have a winner...

djwatch Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 Hi Guys, I've just got one of these, its a fab watch. I was just wondering, has anyone tried a cape cod cloth on the polished-Tachymetre bezel? would the black text/writing be safe? Thanks for any reply, Regards, Dj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercury Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 I usually used a microfiber cloth to wipe it down and keep the dust off. It works real good. Enjoy your new Tag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
