BR03 Type Aviation

[importr]

I acquired a fun rep of this from Reg, and i want to do a few mods to it, like AR and re-lume

my question:

What colour does the lume on the gen glow?

I can't find any reference to it (the lume)

thanks

Thanks chaps i have blue lume

Regs version is the L/E French Air Force edition. Not completely accurate but as I said - a fun watch

looking good would be great if you could post up some wrist shots.

Has a very cool military/professional look that Im digging

Love it! Do all the digital functions work on it??

[ghost]

WOW! I've been wanting this for a while! Never seen it offered till today!

The one i've been lusting after is all black with no emblem at 9 oclock. Is that available?

[importr]

Yeah the rep is a good watch for the price! It wears well on the wrist, is stealthy and is not cumbersome like the 46mm models.

The functions do work, but where the gen operates via the crown (like the Breitling Aerospace), the rep has sunken pushers which you need a biro to push. So, they are not normally useable "on the run".

I've not seen the rep with the std dial, only with the FAF logo. Nor have I seen the silver case version.....by the way, the rep lume is "ok" for rep lume, but is green. The hands aren't lumed for some weird reason!

[metaljesus]

Yeah theres a whole bunch of BRs out there with lumed dials and not hands. Its baffling. Was someone sitting around in a factory thinking that was acutally a good idea? Lume on dial only is as useful as zero lume.

Lume on dial only is as useful as zero lume.

hehehe yeah your right now that I think about it, its quite idiotic.

Thats like the solar-powered torch light!

Importr,

I'm a B&R guy all the way and I'm interested in buying the same model? Can you tell me if the chrono function works? Do both digital displays work seperately? Anything else you want to share? Looking forward to your reply. Thanks.
