My HBB Steel - FrandomiTX2Geekified! :D


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hey guys!

Bought this HBB steel off a forum member a few weeks ago. Unfortunately the AR on the crystal was pretty messed up, there was a smudge on the rotor and the DW was black writing on white background.......FOURTUNATELY I picked up a TX crystal, a 2Geek DW and had Domi in the EU!! :thumbsupsmileyanim:

Just received it back this morning from Domi and I love it!! The AR on the TX crystal is amazing (the crystal is thicker than the factory crystal) havnt yet compared it to a gen yet, but from photos of the gen it looks similar. The DW looks brilliant.

DOmi is a GREAT guy to work with. Very friendly, communicates well, did all the mods, cleaned the rotor, checked everything was fine with the movement etc etc within two days and I received my watch back from Germany within 9 days of me sending it out :D His service is flawless (so thank you Domi). :thumbsupsmileyanim: :thumbsupsmileyanim: :thumbsupsmileyanim:

The watch has:

Full francisco service / movement mods

TX Crystal upgrade

2Geek DW

OEM Kyocera ceramic bezel

It looks and feels amazing! Reason I like HBB's is simply the fact that it uses a unique design, different shapes, different materials, colours etc etc, they just look sexy! :thumbsupsmileyanim:

Here are some pics (taken with my D90 - havnt had much time to play much with it and found getting close-ups difficult with the 18-105mm lense....), but did my best :whistling:

Hope you enjoy!

WOW!! I think you read my mind. I planned to buy exactly the same watch with the same strap + brushed ceramic bezel. I already have TX crystal. Nevertheless I like more white datewheel with black numbers.

How much did you pay for the brushed ceramic bezel? where did you get it?

thanks

wow man simply amazin :thumbsupsmileyanim: looks so nice, and makes me so jealos .. shame on me :D

the bezel and the strap realy make the difference... great taste as always bro :)

but only one thing, i think you should rotate your bezel, so that the brushed lines go upside down not left to right.. you know what i mean right??

if not ship it over to me, i will fix that for ya :D

you know what i order as my next watch ;) and if i like it.. then this is my next purchase, cause it looks so nice :)

wear it well O

Great minds think alike ;) If im honest, the black DW with white numbers is much better (but thats my personal taste and opinion + its what the gen has). I was lucky enough to get the bezel with the watch when I bought it....The dealers sell brushed ceramic bezels though (but im not sure how they compare to the Kyocera ones)....

Hey Denz-O! Hehe yeah I thought I would try and give you inspiration to pull the trigger already ;) So order yours :thumbsupsmileyanim:

This has the same dial as the Black Magic, but the BM case is all black ceramic I think. This one is more similar to the Steel (correct dial and steel case), just that mine has a ceramic bezel not steel :whistling:

WOW, good eye Deniz, I never noticed that the bezel brushing was going left to right......I will fix that in a jiffy (luckily I can thanks to DOmi ;) )Thanks bro.

@OSREP

That's a beauty indeed! Reminds me of the porn Deniz keeps sending me...

Congrats on the new D90. Have a look at this website for a cheap option for your lens.

Hey G! Thanks mate. Deniz is sending you PORN, and not sharing it with the rest of us??? :bangin: A macro lense filter?Are they any good? I guess it would save me a few $100 dollars :whistling: WOrth a try I guess. Is 67mm the correct diameter? Cheers G.

Love that strap combo too!

You've got a right beauty there, mate! :thumbsupsmileyanim:

Glad you like it coolfire! I didnt like the textured rubber strap.....This ones more sporty! :thumbsupsmileyanim:

beautiful! I love the ceramic bezel on it

:thumbsupsmileyanim: :thumbsupsmileyanim: Cheers mate!

O do you remember wich color the tx ar has? is it lightly blue, or completly clear????

:)

i hope i can get one

deniz

like most Swiss ones, mostly clear with a blue hue. It varies a little with the dial color.

very nice!

as for the difference between the kyocera and rep ceramic bezel, the kyocera has slightly sharper points on the cross-hatching. It's hard to see with naked eye. That and about $500 price difference
