kwhc Posted January 25, 2013 Report Posted January 25, 2013 Hi everyone, new to here! Thinking of buying a AP watch from puretime, but I really can't make up my mind to make the decision, I really like the dial of the RB2 in titanium, but on the other hand I always prefer a rubber strap! I'm now fighting over with the RB2 or the Chronopassion V4... Since they are not cheap, I think I'll get some comments/suggestions from the experts in here? So what you guys think? Thanks in advance!
millwallmart Posted January 25, 2013 Report Posted January 25, 2013 I bought a used chronopassion in the uk off of another forum and it was delivered monday- it has not left my wrist since. It's easily my fave watch and the rubber strap is great, I have a 7.5 inch wrist and have the strap on my ap lava is secured on the last hole which doesnt feel great. I've ordered a V5 Chronopassion from Toro on the back of how good this one is and may source a more extravagant strap for this one... Buy it - its the [censored]! Mart
Watchmeister Posted January 25, 2013 Report Posted January 25, 2013 I loved mine so much I converted it into a custom piece with different . The case is phenomenal. But be prepared for scratches and they are not repairable without redoing the whole case.
folex Posted January 26, 2013 Report Posted January 26, 2013 I was too afraid of the scratches and decided to just have a catch n release
Legend Posted January 26, 2013 Report Posted January 26, 2013 chronopassion = classic, everyday wrist goodness. RBII = "wow, what's this?" Be undecided. Be very undecided.
rogerthat Posted January 26, 2013 Report Posted January 26, 2013 If getting the cp it is now v5 not v4 Cyclops now with ar and pushers properly rounded I believe are the differences, don't think u can even get the v4 anymore but just in case make sure u request the most recent one Of the 2 you are looking at chrono passion would get my vote
kwhc Posted January 26, 2013 Author Report Posted January 26, 2013 So Mart is going for chronopassion? watchmeister and folex: which one are you referring to about the scratches? If its the RB2, is it better if I get the gold plated one? Legendkiller: it is very hard to decide...but either model I'm just gonna wear it everyday! Lol
kwhc Posted January 26, 2013 Author Report Posted January 26, 2013 One more vote for CP from rogerthat! I can only see v3/v4 from the PT website, can't see v5 yet... No one is voting for RB2??? What's wrong with it? Lol

Lol The chrono passion scratches easily since its bead blasted. The rb doesn't really have that correct cote de Geneve on plates of the movement under the open dial
