wisrep2010 Posted May 17, 2010 Report Posted May 17, 2010 Hi folks, following the Graham Chronofighter Diver Tech Seal v2 is the Graham Chronofighter Oversized Commando in Titanium As with the Tech Seal this also one if the best out of the box replicas - there are some minor issues that I hope can be fixed: AR is very weak and it looks like it is only a blueish tint rather than real ARMinute subdial hand at 9 o'clock resets perfectly but seems to have some play since it moves about 1/3 of a second when I move the watch - same as with the Tech SealThe rubber strap is actually terrible - the "Graham" lettering is very shallow and the surface of the strap is already glossy on some parts - the Tech Seal strap is much better Other than that it is close to perfect - Here are the things that I particularly like:Perfect case - no sharp edges!Stunning CF dialLever is very tight - no floppyness like on the Tech Seal I had the watch on my watchtimer and the results were OK - average deviation between positions was +9.8 sec/day and the Amlitude was a strong 287 degrees, which indicates no issues with the movement. Enough said - now on to the pictures! And here is the strap - you will see what I was referring to earlier when you compare it to the Tech Seal strap ...lume shot - I played around with taking 2 pictures - one in the dark and one with light and than overlayed them and finally the wrist shots: Ok, that's it for now - hope you enjoyed my post? Stay tuned for posts of my other new watches - two more to come today: Rolex Double Red Seadweller and Rolex Red Sub meter first

Bike Mike Posted May 20, 2010 Report Posted May 20, 2010 Love the Graham piece. Have a OS Diver and Overlord MK III. Been looking at getting this one for a while, just dont know if I am going to like the light weight of the Ti. Waiting for the OL MK IV to be rep'd. The AR on my 2 Grahams are phenomenal. Best I have seen in the rep World. Funny how the best factory AR jobs seem to be on the less popular models. The straps vary by factory. My OS Diver is nice and deep, the OL MK III just plain sucks, very shallow, but has been replaced with a croco strap from our very own BlackBard.
