StormTooper4 Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 But I really like this watch, apparently its OEM Gen like, but its a bit steep $ pricewise. But I am really inquisitive on this I know its a bit girly channel like, but its a bit more masculine Anyone going to get one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FDG Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 Its a typical watch, I think you either love it or hate it. Build quality looks good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redwatch Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 Interesting design elements. I quite like the black bracelet with brushed SS sides. I don't quite get the lugs though. Why is one brushed SS and the other 3 black? That kind of ruins the look for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asf Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 It's unique. I kinda like it. Is the black rubber? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redwatch Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 Checking their site, looks like they make an all stainless steel version as well. Some interesting watches in that particular group. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave123 Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 I think it would match my black Gucci purse and silver Jimmy Choo shoes very nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike on a bike Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 Waiting on a Bvlgari Assioma 44x52 I have rather large wrist so need the size (216MM)so Andrew is putting in extra links. http://www.trustytime.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=20_156&products_id=6007 http://www.trustytime.com/bmz_cache/1/1e06a5acc90b715052ca2de4fc935077.image.800x532.jpg Wanted to post pic but could only get link, check it out.Definitely not girly. By the way like the Dior Trooper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dropbear2008 Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 You are not on your own. I purchased 1 today. Let us know how it looks like in person, I am tempted as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike on a bike Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 Well the Bvlgari arrived minus the extra links that were supposed to be put in. Andrew is sending, a bit mifited as I started the whole process asking if this was possible. On the up side watch looks great, as I have mentioned a 216mm wrist if Andrew wants a customer for life all he has to do give me watches that will fit.

Dave123 Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 LOL. I think you really want Andrew to give you things that fit in places that they shouldnt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolexman Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 Imo It's a production over run. Meaning mostly genuine parts are used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBattler Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 Imo It's a production over run. Meaning mostly genuine parts are used. That's what the dealers state. A good looking watch but I think I rather have a V3 AP Diver. A Gen Dior does nothing for me.

pynchon Posted May 27, 2012 Report Share Posted May 27, 2012 Watch arrived. Some interesting aspects to the design. Hands + sec dot are superlumed. Pearl + markers and 06 + 09 are lumed but not as strong as hands. Uni directional bezel clicks and very smooth. Fits 8" wrist. I removed 1 link and moved clasp pin to fit 7 1/2 wrist. Clasp hard to figure out how to open smoothly (tight lock mechanism). Kickstand crown lock is locked in place. You twist rear case counterclockwise to unlock. Took a couple minutes for me to figure that out. It was difficult for me to adjust time. You pull crown out and date changes quickly/smoothly. But to get it to move hands I had to work at it. Still not confident with that but it just arrived yesterday. You can manually wind it apparently (first pull of crown). Finishing is very good. I am very pleased with this piece. May compare to b&r 02 and Pam 318L (my other reps) @ some point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strattakan Posted May 30, 2012 Report Share Posted May 30, 2012 Waiting for pics. I think the design is very unique with the crown protector. Also, the red backside is cool. I think the price is some kinda high, but let´s see a real wrist pic to judge, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhes4 Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 I'm waiting for mine to arrive. Hopefully soon. It's been a week since puretime send the QC picture but no tracking no yet. I tried the gen last year. Even the quality of the gen is not comparable with gen of watch around that price. For $360 it's pretty cheap for a franken(might be gen) with swiss movement.

Mike on a bike Posted June 2, 2012 Report Share Posted June 2, 2012 Big Gun "LOL. I think you really want Andrew to give you things that fit in places that they shouldnt" Now that was uncalled for, inter-net tough I gather. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
