Toadtorrent Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 Very nice. Is the Navi the one with the newer movement with the "less sunken" datewheel? I would like to hear your thoughts on the Aquaracer!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b16a2 Posted February 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 Very nice. Is the Navi the one with the newer movement with the "less sunken" datewheel? I would like to hear your thoughts on the Aquaracer!! This Navitimer is the newer one with the Breitling Calibre 23 movement Il be doing a review of the Aquaracer over the next week, but in short.....it's amazing! Tried the gen on, and genuinely cannot tell the difference in fit and finish....the bezel is slightly looser on the clicks, but that's something that applies to all reps. Apart from that, it's a very good replication. Still looking for the poor photos....???? The Tag looks very nice,i dont look at them often but ive never seen that one before. :thumbsupsmileyanim: haha thank you This tag is a real looker. It has a really nice feel and look to it on the wrist, would thoroughly recommend one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pugwash Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 This Navitimer is the newer one with the Breitling Calibre 23 movement ie. It's a gen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b16a2 Posted February 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 That Aquaracer looks gen It is a replica, but it certainly is built like a gen. I'd compare this to the SOSF in terms of build quality and how it feels on the wrist...it really is a must have for rep collectors ie. It's a gen. Indeed it is Good to see you posting again Pug!

P4GTR Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 Damnit.. I meant the Breitling was a gen. I've never seen that until now. Is that the latest aquaracer from TAG? Which dealer did you go through? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b16a2 Posted February 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 Damnit.. I meant the Breitling was a gen. I've never seen that until now. Is that the latest aquaracer from TAG? Which dealer did you go through? Yes, it's the new Aquaracer 500m that tgas has released (last year I believe) For me, it further reinforces that Tag is moving in a really good direction with regards to it's designs. In the flesh this is a really nice watch. I have always fancied a SMP 2254, but they don't come up that often, but this Tag is a really good substitute! It captures similar characteristics of the SMP 2254. I bought mine second hand from a guy on RepGeek, but it originally came from PreciousTime, and I almost bought one from him until this one came up for sale on the sales corner over at RG.

P4GTR Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 Fantastic. I agree TAG continues to step it up, lots of impressive stuff coming out of their works. Wear em well B! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikki6 Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 Wasn't sure about the new Aquaracer, just didn't sound right to me. But the more people talk about it and describe it the more I'm being swayed into liking it. It's going to have to be a purchase for me, have never seen one so have no general idea to start from!! Whats the dimensions on this one?! Also pleased to hear you back Pug!! I managed to pick up one of those Aquatimers you liked so much, the other week!! Very nice call on that!!

By-Tor Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 Navi is a classic of course but damn that 'Racer is nice and sporty. We pretty much share the same taste in watches... I always like whatever you buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
