gmtlover Posted November 15, 2012 Report Share Posted November 15, 2012 (edited) Hi just saw this on puretime, they just uploaded it 2 days ago.. This seems to be a great version. maybe some experts can have a look at it? http://www.puretime....ion-white-dial/ Finish looks great to me. They even state it has the correct cyclops AR. This would be a first on reps and a big one for new reps to come Edited November 15, 2012 by GMTlover 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cats Posted November 15, 2012 Report Share Posted November 15, 2012 Looks nice but i don't see any AR under and on top of the cyclops on that picture. Carpe Diem Cats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carpe Diem Cats Take a look at the link and then play the movie, then you can see it.. I also like the new clasp on the bracelet. you can see the mechanics in the movie very nice!

gmtlover Posted November 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 not a lot of interest in the newest explorer...strange because I thought it was a pretty popular model Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xlike Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 Amazing thing. Definitly better than any current of those models out there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kramerica2 Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 Still suffers from the incorrect hand stack flaw... A deal breaker for some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig S Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 I'd rather have an incorrect hand stack and a working watch than a modded movement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kramerica2 Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 Or a different watch that has neither.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmtlover Posted November 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 Or a different watch that has neither.... Then you probably won't have a GMT hand either..considering you're talking a rep;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig S Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 I personally like this watch, and don't mind the incorect hand-stack. As long as the movement is stable, I'll be happy. Has Angus mentioned when this is going to be available? I know it says "Novermber", but you know the score when it comes to proposed release dates.

miagi Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 that clasp is awesome! agree with rather having ichs than a modified movement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmtlover Posted November 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2012 If it is as good as he andrew says it is, then we can expect something. Especially him mentioning that this is only the sample, and that the final version will be even better. Now my only fear is that it will be very high priced, $400 + I think.

Craig S Posted November 23, 2012 Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 No chance I will be paying over $400 for a rep. Would rather save the money towards a gen of some description. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olivax Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 (edited) The date wheel seems to be not centered? Is it me? The "R" of ROLEXROLEX on the rehaut is not aligned at 9 Edited December 4, 2012 by Olivax Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmtlover Posted December 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 The date wheel seems to be not centered? Is it me? The "R" of ROLEXROLEX on the rehaut is not aligned at 9 It will be aligned on the final version. This is just the sample Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmtlover Posted December 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 Really wish they would fix that hour hand I think that's one of the easiest mods you can do yourself right? The overal watch looks way better, better clasp, better bracelet, better lume Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianmds Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 (edited) Not sure if that was a joke as i'm not very handy with modding...Lol But as far as i know ive only seen the chrome skinny hour hands but never a black one yet I do agree with you it's a beautiful watch. I could deal with the incorrect hand stack Edited December 4, 2012 by brianmds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmtlover Posted December 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2012 It wasn't a joke, but with a good how to, tools, patience and a steady hand everybody could do it. Or you just let someone else mod the watch for you ;-) At least the watch is an improvement over the last one;-) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
