TimeToPretend Posted January 29, 2013 Report Posted January 29, 2013 How much will they cost on average?
Archetypal Posted January 29, 2013 Report Posted January 29, 2013 Thanks for this exciting news cougar.
Rolexman Posted January 29, 2013 Report Posted January 29, 2013 Probably no Noob... Otherwise Angus would have let us know. Andrew doesn't have suchi a good relationship with Noob. Also poor/ no AR from what I see on the picture.......
sunnydale Posted January 29, 2013 Report Posted January 29, 2013 Are these all made in XL size too??? Me want the white in 45.5 mm!
cougar1 Posted January 29, 2013 Author Report Posted January 29, 2013 (edited) Yep, not noob, not sure who, but definitely not noob...and Andrew kept this quiet , Angus/noob was/were very tight lipped about these from noob over the past few months for a reason! This also looks good from an AT point of view. ...the first thing that did pop out at me was the dw is a little weak, typical rep dw, ..but at least it's replaceable if need be, and pearl will be interesting when we have a closer look, ...but at same time, the watches look outstanding, the dial/hands and bezel look very good and they will be fully superlumed also. Don't know a whole lot about the AR off hand. It will be really interesting to see the caseback! First impressions are really positive on this. And with need more pics More details and specifications and 1:1 comparison pics will be out soon enough. Edited January 29, 2013 by cougar1
the_rymeister Posted January 29, 2013 Report Posted January 29, 2013 Thanks for the update buddy, for first versions these look great, look forward to seeing update
JFrank Posted January 29, 2013 Report Posted January 29, 2013 Looks pretty sweet! Also, does dw stand for date window or something else entirely? 1
redroom Posted January 29, 2013 Report Posted January 29, 2013 AR doesnt look that great. My biggest gripe with the reps has been the dial just doesn't pop like the gen due to the AR. Not sure if these are much better will anxiously waiting for release & reviews. Also will be nice when the non-cermaric POs start getting dumped on the sales threads!
Mike on a bike Posted January 30, 2013 Report Posted January 30, 2013 "Wow its funny I really like that white bezel." Mike me to, strange also. Red send it to chief for an AR treatment.
Mike on a bike Posted January 30, 2013 Report Posted January 30, 2013 All accolades aside lets wait for the price, sucker born every day.
cougar1 Posted January 30, 2013 Author Report Posted January 30, 2013 It's from BP factory and the 42mm are out first then 45mm shortly after. By all accounts it will be a superrep, bracelet is excellent looking and superlume is meant to be spot on. Ok the nitpickers will go on about movement but I'm happy if they get the front right. AR looks ok to me, need more pics to be sure, make what you want of this:
cougar1 Posted January 30, 2013 Author Report Posted January 30, 2013 Wow! Almost speechless! I'll let the pics speak for themselves! Looks like we won't need any mods!

Matt_S Posted January 30, 2013 Report Posted January 30, 2013 Where where where??? Just go onto Trusty's site and look under planet ocean. They're all there with photos.
Matt_S Posted January 30, 2013 Report Posted January 30, 2013 Where where where??? They're all on Trusty Time with photos. Looks like they've done a nice job of the display case back! They've copied the engravings off the 8500 onto the spacer ring of the rep as well - "ADJUSTE DTO FIYE POSITIONS" Oh well, nearly right. They got the happy feet and pearl sorted though so can't complain too much I suppose. The bezel looks gorgeous, spot on. and the bracelet clasp complete with micro-adjustment! and screws on the bracelet links as per gen! Love it!
Rolexman Posted January 30, 2013 Report Posted January 30, 2013 Don't see it on his website. Only the group shot.....
cougar1 Posted January 30, 2013 Author Report Posted January 30, 2013 (edited) Sorry guys forgot people can't see pics, should be up on trustys also. I put them on imgur. http://imgur.com/a/yK7DY Edited January 30, 2013 by cougar1 2
Rolexman Posted January 30, 2013 Report Posted January 30, 2013 Wow..... Looks pretty good considering the limitations of the movement. I'm glad they took on the challenge for this rather impossible rep with a see through case back. All in all I will buy it in a heart beat if the bezel is real ceramic!
