jkarpas Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 Hi fellas, i received this baby yesterday, put it on my favourite strap and here it is.. i am very happy with the quallity and finish, it has no sharp edges even on the caseback, crownguard snaps in and out with a great feeling. I love the dial and the ivory colourd correct text, the flush cp , the thick crown. Lume is great but not superlume. The notch for the bezel at 5 is barely noticable. Movement looks fine to me , no improvements in finish, but i think its rather nice.. Andrew as always was a pleasure to deal with, i received this watch in eu in less than 7 days now lets find a gen strap to accompany this beauty ! thank you j Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wimpie007 Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 Looks great! One thing that would bother me is the different color lume on the hands compared to the dial numbers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drulee Posted December 16, 2010 Report Share Posted December 16, 2010 The dial lume actually looks to be the correct colour. Does it stay bright for a while, or die out quickly (within a minute)? Maybe all you need is a set of relumed hands.... but then again it is usually a good idea to get them both relumed at the same time if you want them to match.

Drulee Posted December 16, 2010 Report Share Posted December 16, 2010 Do you happen to know if that case accepts standard/DSN casebacks? I can just see it now, they make a great case, but it only accepts their new "J" series display backs P.S. You really should change the white balance setting on your camera.

Talhah Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 Great looking watch. The CG looks perfect. Is this the standard CG that came with the watch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whatever123 Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 Well, looks like this baby is now mine! I'm impressed by the overall quality and finish. I once owned a LH 111 and have to say it wasn't much better. The only thing that bothers me is the lume colour - that's still too greenish! I think I'll have it relumed, then it will be almost perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
