New Portofino Chronographs from Joshua

[japanic]

As the headline reads.

 

Pics aren't that great, but personally I've been waiting for these models since they were unveiled last year.

The only thing I'm pensive about is the pushers look a bit off and the subdials may or may not be raised as per gen. But I'd have to see the QC pics to make a real decision.

 

What say you?

Looks pretty smart , but I know nada on these 

 

and then I saw the 6 numeral is it supposed to be V1  EEWWWWEEEWW and who knows whats happening at the 12 ?

 

 

 

 

But the Gens the same

Looks like lot of parts where used from 21j/quartz models.

 

Hands are too thick at the end.

Pushers' tips are also too think.

The case around the crystal should be slimmer.

 

These details spoil the slenderness of the gen. 

 

I would be waiting for v2 of this...

curious to know if the rep has the same sunburst effect (grey dial),

dial quality makes a huge difference

Bad date font as usual. A shame since there is a good one out there, on the new mark xvi.

[Prancuzas]

They need to try harder...

Agreed...bad AR, but that's not irreparable,

very bad date wheel and there s no fix for it.

 

I expect more nowadays for that price for a watch with no ss bracelet.

I nearly puked when I saw the "FRI" day wheel on the black dialled one.
