hansmeier Posted April 20, 2013 Report Share Posted April 20, 2013 Here is my latest purchase (thx devilseam), really a beauty. I guess it´s a v1/v2, definitely not a v6, but nevermind... I like it much, even with some minor flaws (white DW, blue screws...) because of it´s massive presence on the wrist and the polished, shiny bezel. The dial is very well made, also the clasp. Now waiting for my H-screwdriver to replace the strap with a gen. This watch is for sure a keeper! Thanks for looking! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martijnp Posted April 21, 2013 Report Share Posted April 21, 2013 Haha of course, it's a stunning watch I thought the buyer did include H-screwdriver with the sale? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hansmeier Posted April 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2013 I made a special deal with the seller - watch only, no screwdriver, no SS bezel, but therefore less pricey. Wondering when (if? ) the screwdriver from Hong Kong will arrive with the snail mail... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martijnp Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 Oh ok, didn't know that! What gen strap you're about to order? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hansmeier Posted April 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 I ordered a used gen strap from a member of the german Zeitgeist forum. It's already here, and it's really much smoother! If you are interested, he has another one (also used)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martijnp Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 Ok cool! Was it a good price ? Saving some money for the AP ROO Chrono 26402 Of course are pictures more than welcome of that strap! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legend Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 I have seen gen Hublots with white datewheel base before. Its not really a flaw, more like a variation. Stunning watch and pictures, wear her well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hansmeier Posted April 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 Thx legendkiller! I´m preferring black DW because the of the "sunken-DW"-issue; less noticeable when black... Also black DW matches better to the black dial color. @Martijn: will make some gen/rep-strap-pics for comparison, but they are optically nearly the same. The difference is mainly in the softness...

hansmeier Posted April 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 Some quick pics for comparing rep vs. (used) gen strap - the rep strap is installed on the watch: The squares on the gen strap are a littler higher, and have more "rounded" edges, the rep looks a littler flatter. But the visual differences are nearly not noticeable, only when looking veeeery close to both straps. But the feeling makes the difference... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hansmeier Posted February 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2014 Thanks! Got the watch from a fellow member here and the strap from a german rep forum. About 2 weeks ago I got a new HBB v6 from Puretime (which I ordered for a friend) and the recent rep straps are way softer... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
