Ronin Posted November 29, 2010 Report Share Posted November 29, 2010 Nice. I still need to acquire a bracelet. Thinking of giving a rep bracelet a try on my gen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ektelon Posted November 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2010 Thanks guys. By-Tor, I actually purchased this on the thoroughness of your review. I am now interested in the Rolex DSSD or a TAG. Suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jj69 Posted December 1, 2010 Report Share Posted December 1, 2010 I have one of these. The bracelet fell apart when I was sizing it. The sides of some of the permanent links just loosened up and the whole thing crumbled. Dealer provided a replacement bracelet and that one fell apart too. Luckily, I was able to kludge the two of them together to make one full bracelet. Now I'm scared to wear it because I don't know if it will fall apart on my wrist. Have you guys noticed any issues with your bracelets? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjenk Posted December 1, 2010 Report Share Posted December 1, 2010 I actually tried that watch on at the Movado factory outlet store on Saturday. They were having a 70% off sale on all Ebel watches in stock. That one was marked down to somewhere around $2200 from near $6900 but I was looking for the 1911 Discovery model which they didn't have. What a beauty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a beauty. I'd get the gen BTR over gen Discovery without any doubts. BTR has a stunning inhouse movement while Discovery sports just a simple ETA 7750. Technically those watches don't even compare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ektelon Posted December 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2010 jj69, I haven't had an issue with my bracelet. It feels solid with a great clasp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a beauty. jjenk, I was in exactly the same position as you two years ago. I was in the Outlet store with the BTR on my wrist for $2,200. I didn't buy it only because it was on strap rather than bracelet. Was the one you tried on strap or bracelet for that price? If you don't mind, please PM me the location of the outlet store where you saw it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
