kramerica2 Posted March 5, 2013 Report Posted March 5, 2013 So, rumors are that Andrew is already selling the new watch. However, there aren't any details nor pictures of that watch yet. Rumors say it has a correct hand stack and AR'ed cyclop. I'm very interested, but does anybody have pics or "official" details about it?
devilseam Posted March 5, 2013 Report Posted March 5, 2013 Sounds interesting! Looking forward to hearing details about this.
TgfRulez Posted March 5, 2013 Report Posted March 5, 2013 Seems that BP has release the V3.. This is the BP V2 GMTIIC http://etatw2011.com/Product_Show.asp?ID=8144
gmtlover Posted March 5, 2013 Report Posted March 5, 2013 The BP does not have a correct handstack. Only ar'ed cyclops. Already contacted Andrew about this a week ago..but his pics and description hasn't been updated yet
watcher Posted March 5, 2013 Report Posted March 5, 2013 Correct hand stack is a waste of time. If it bothers you buy a gen.
kramerica2 Posted March 5, 2013 Author Report Posted March 5, 2013 It's a very minor flaw, I agree. The noticeable flaws in the current GMT are the grey bezel markings and the lack of AR on the cyclop. Any flaw that can be spotted IRL situations needs to be fixed...
Watchmeister Posted March 5, 2013 Report Posted March 5, 2013 I have to profess ignorance. What does BP stand for? Big Pilot Factory orsomething like that?
irolexu Posted March 5, 2013 Report Posted March 5, 2013 I have 2 on the way will post pics when they arrive
sneed12 Posted March 5, 2013 Report Posted March 5, 2013 Correct hand stack is a waste of time. Meh--I've owned plenty of ICHS reps and been fine with them, but CHS is nice to have and is surprisingly noticeable.
kramerica2 Posted March 12, 2013 Author Report Posted March 12, 2013 OK, apparently the QC pics on his website are updated for the new version. Before I pull the trigger on that, could someone point me the flaws on this one. By flaws I mean the tells for this rep (not QC flaws). I know one tell is the rather thin, grayish bezel markings. What are the other tells? Thanks a lot..
jcagara08 Posted March 12, 2013 Report Posted March 12, 2013 Hmm just went thru an AD earlier so I can see that the bezel markers are not that quite bold in appearance..is this the v3? Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2

panerai153 Posted March 13, 2013 Report Posted March 13, 2013 Hard to beat the gen on this one. i realize the photo is pretty magnified, but the correct hand stack is pretty apparent, and to me IHS is going to be a pretty big tell if the hands are in the right position,(GMT hand is right under or close to the hour hand on the IHS) and someone who knows is looking. also the bezel is really different from all the reps. bolder numbers, different color and the plat paint is hard to replicate.
