thogaa Posted November 27, 2009 Report Share Posted November 27, 2009 Somehow I managed to drink a case of beer yesterday and got into a discussion about the coolest Breitling model. I then later ordered a SA from Andrew (at least according to my email). Are there any issues with this rep? I think it looks brilliant in the pics on the TT site I mean if this one is as good as the ASW... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thogaa Posted November 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2009 haha, that's how I buy most my watches....starting to get there as we speak Nothing like shopping on the Internet when you're [censored]. Always a surprise what turns up in the mail a few days later. OT but funny I think: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxman Posted November 27, 2009 Report Share Posted November 27, 2009 I have had the blue dial for about four months. I have eleven reps, two of them are Breitlings. I would say that the SA Is one of the best as far as quality go's . Everything just feels right. The crown has a nice smooth articulation to it, same thing with the pushers. Two things I dont like. I dont care for the AR coating on the outside of the crystal, scratches to easy. The bracelet Is not becoming of a rep of this quality. Im ording a gen croc strap. The bottom line Is that this Is a excellent replication, one of the best Imho. good luck Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P4GTR Posted November 27, 2009 Report Share Posted November 27, 2009 lol thogaa thats hysterical. I don't think you can go wrong with the SA my friend. U drunk dialed yourself right into a 10. Albeit a 10, that needs a $200 movement servicing as soon as you get it. Pretty usually is high maintenance though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drobbins Posted November 27, 2009 Report Share Posted November 27, 2009 I got the same watch from Tony Feng about two weeks ago. It runs a little fast but it is clearly my favorite watch. It fooled my jeweler. He sees replicas every day but he thought this was real and was astounded to learn otherwise. I have only gen watches except for this. I've only been a member of this site for a short time but have been avidly reading, soaking up and evaluating the vast knowledge base. It saved me from making some extremely bad choices. Next, I think I will try to find a Long Island, NY Watchsmith to lubricate it as per the Zigmeister's recommendations. This is my first Post. I've been traveling the "shut up and learn" route. Thanks to all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thogaa Posted November 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2009 Welcome to RWG drobbins Other guys: Is the SO 24mm? I'd like the rubber strap to go with this watch but can't seem to find the right one at our friendly dealers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NORing Posted November 27, 2009 Report Share Posted November 27, 2009 Haha, that comicstrip is a replication of my mind. Stop this unfair production of replicas!!!! By the way, I don't know if there actually is a replica 24mm pro diver, is there even a gen 24mm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks to all. Just be aware that we have rules about taking reps into ADs, your jeweler may be you best friend but we should not be trying to bass them off as gens to people in the trade.

JohnQ Posted November 29, 2009 Report Share Posted November 29, 2009 As far as the SA goes, is there only one version? I'm really wanting the white faced model, but I want to make sure I get the best one out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
