New Carrera Day Date from Joshua

Guys, tell me if your watches have the following issue: off centered imprinted text on the chrono hours subdial. You can see what I am talking about on the pictures below. See how the 9 is much closer to the border than the 3?

Mine is lined up perfectly. Is yours really noticeable at a distance, or just close up?

Does this version excist? I mean titanium case including black dial, red second hand. Number ..125 on Josh website..

It seems to be a fantasy model.

Please reply,

Joe

Yes, it exists, I picked up the same model from Josh. The service was excellent, the watch exceeded all my expectations and it arrived in 8 days. I'm looking around for a gen. strap now.

@CCR,

Thanks for your reply.

Can you post a picture or a link to the gen of this version ?

Sorry about that Joe, I'm new at this and also misunderstood the question. You are correct....In looking at the original, Josh's model 123 has the correct second hand, but the "carbon fibre" face doesn't appear correct, it looks like the face should be solid black like the model 125 with black bezel. If the model 125 had a solid red second hand, silver bezel and 123 strap, I think it would be very difficult to tell from the gen. I miked the case on my 125 and its just a hair over 43mm so the case size is also correct on the new rep. Have to say, the model 125 (black bezel and all) looks great, I haven't taken it off since I got it....

I bought limited version of Carrera Calibre 16 Singapore, that one with green accents - and it is great :) The are some details which bothers me:

- no "dishes" for minutes / hours of chrono (the GEN has them risen up from dial surface like this:)

These dishes are applied, not cut deep into dial:

- TH logo is missing arrows for G

- wrong day date font (to be modded with ETA's ones)

We all are still waiting for an Ultimate of these watches ;)
