relaxman Posted January 15, 2012 Author Report Posted January 15, 2012 It came from Joshua..purchased the one on rubber strap but added the gen. Croc to it upon arrival. Get tons of complements on it Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
MapsMoney Posted January 15, 2012 Report Posted January 15, 2012 awesome, can you link me to the item so I can purchase it? Also where did you get the gen gator strap? I really love this setup it's very nice and I'd like to order the same thing.. how much $ total did it run you for the setup?
StormTooper4 Posted January 15, 2012 Report Posted January 15, 2012 DW Cyclopes , crown & CG all look really impressive , great combo

I really love this setup it's very nice and I'd like to order the same thing.. how much $ total did it run you for the setup? Just go to josh's website and choose the 088. There is only 2 choices one on rubber or leather.. I bought the strap on risti at a great price of $160 which is really good considering it was unused
MapsMoney Posted January 15, 2012 Report Posted January 15, 2012 okay found the URL, can u link me where u got the strap?
MapsMoney Posted January 16, 2012 Report Posted January 16, 2012 been doing some research on 088s,, Josh has 2 availble for $300.. TrustyTime has one for $400+ ... says it's "ultimate best" version, can anyone explain the differences, if any?
MapsMoney Posted January 23, 2012 Report Posted January 23, 2012 just received mine form andrew really good piece i like it a lot but there is like no AR On this... I looked at my 005 I have from Mary, (noob) and the AR is flawless, i can not see myself in it clearly.. i throw on the 088 and i see my reflectin clear as day.. Is this common? Just curious, it kinda screams 'fake' when i look at it now.. im so used to the 005 no reflection whatssoever or minimal at most.. Dont wanan sound like an it picker but just curious. Thanks!
MapsMoney Posted January 23, 2012 Report Posted January 23, 2012 Also having problems with the GMT hand.. All in all a bit dissapointed in this piece, i feel like maybe it's brokeen?
zafod Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 I've recently ordered one of these (due for delivery when shipping starts again after CNY). As far as I can see, the only "tell" is on the back; the gen has "easy strap change" next to the lug (see pic) - but you would have to take watch off your wrist to see it. Not seen this mentioned by anyone before

zafod Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 Makes it even more impressive then, thanks for the info.
MapsMoney Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 so sad... Relaxman how is the AR coating on your 088? The one I just got is pretty bad, i can see reflections clear as day. it screams rep tbh... My 005 Noob AR coating is quite amazing, i can barelyt see anything
blbl Posted January 26, 2012 Report Posted January 26, 2012 Yup same here When I compared it to my 111 the AR is indeed weaker esp on the cyclops its close to nothing! GMT hand is in a world of its own. Power reserve has been really bad and unstable, on good days its 1.5day without wearing,bad days just half a day w/o wearing. When I do wear them, it stops randomly.. Lume is blue on some members but green on mine. gonna send it back to the dealer for a refund or exchange. I guess the GMT complications or dirty movement is the probfor it.
MapsMoney Posted January 26, 2012 Report Posted January 26, 2012 blb same problems here!! Im waiting for a repalcement from TrustyTime... Im gonna send it to a watchsmith on here to re-apply better AR, Fix the Lume, and check out the movement... its a nice piece so im willing to invest
blbl Posted January 26, 2012 Report Posted January 26, 2012 yes indeed its a really nice piece thats why the disappointment... The wait alone for the watch to arrive kills. to make things worst, its not functioning as it should. I'm also planning to fit a gen leather strap with it! cant wait
MapsMoney Posted January 29, 2012 Report Posted January 29, 2012 i just received my oem light brown croc for this thing.. wow. A mazing . really make this an insane piece.
blbl Posted January 29, 2012 Report Posted January 29, 2012 i just received my oem light brown croc for this thing.. wow. A mazing . really make this an insane piece. ! Sounds beautiful! Any pics? Btw how much is the oem strap?
MapsMoney Posted January 29, 2012 Report Posted January 29, 2012 I paid about $170 for it, it's very nice.. too bad the watch is broken :| Ill take some pics in a bit
