prdubis Posted May 29, 2013 Report Posted May 29, 2013 A very nice rep but infortunately the lume is wrong as it should glow blue :-( Dial color is pretty accurate, it goes from dark navy blue to grey sky blue.
rek001 Posted May 29, 2013 Report Posted May 29, 2013 So BP does the blue Yachtmaster too. Very nice, I'm thinking about one but the stamped bezel numerals are almost off the outer edge of the bezel, bugs me. The new one are all like that unfortunately.
prdubis Posted May 29, 2013 Author Report Posted May 29, 2013 Actually the bezel is slightly curved and that's why the numerals may look too close of the outer side of it. It's the same on the gen, have a loom at these pictures:
prdubis Posted May 29, 2013 Author Report Posted May 29, 2013 Actually the only things that may bother are the AR on the cyclop, the lume color and the crown that is not as good as the rest of the watch.Btw, which crown fits this Yachmaster? It doesn't look like 703...
panerai153 Posted May 30, 2013 Report Posted May 30, 2013 Nice watch, too bad about the crappy lume. I would have it relumed with the correct lume. I believe the white,glows blue is BGW9. It has a good blue color, but the color in light is white.

rek001 Posted May 30, 2013 Report Posted May 30, 2013 You're right about the curved bezel Pr! That's good news, you changed my mind and now I'll have to get one. Enjoy your watch.
prdubis Posted May 30, 2013 Author Report Posted May 30, 2013 :-)Maybe another factory has one with a blue lume?
irolexu Posted May 30, 2013 Report Posted May 30, 2013 Heck that's a gorgeous watch. Easily can be modded to have correct markers. Would pulling the markers off a ceramic sub work?
prdubis Posted May 31, 2013 Author Report Posted May 31, 2013 Connie/Mrs King will speak about the lume to BP factory boss on Saturday to eventually get an update on next batch... Wristshot, rainy day as usual here these days/weeks/months:
irolexu Posted May 31, 2013 Report Posted May 31, 2013 That dial looks really purple!!! please tell me its not!
prdubis Posted May 31, 2013 Author Report Posted May 31, 2013 That dial looks really purple!!! please tell me its not! It's not at all! It goes from navy/ink blue to petroleum blue and it is gen like. Envoyé de mon iPad à l'aide de Tapatalk HD
irolexu Posted May 31, 2013 Report Posted May 31, 2013 Ya I figured the camera just makes it look purple. I've had a datejust with the same issue on photography
clkcadet Posted June 2, 2013 Report Posted June 2, 2013 Can you please link me to where I can find this? I have been really contemplating a TC YM, but this looks phenomenal.

fradic Posted June 3, 2013 Report Posted June 3, 2013 Would you mind sending me a PM aswell with a link? =) Looked really nice
andyc2 Posted June 3, 2013 Report Posted June 3, 2013 I'be be interested to know who can supply these also (PM please if necessary) - do they have the correct clasp?
Mickey Padge Posted June 4, 2013 Report Posted June 4, 2013 Why not just post the link here? Would like to know too please, just put a disclaimer if they are not a supported dealer
andyc2 Posted June 4, 2013 Report Posted June 4, 2013 Just noticed the reference in the Thread to King Watch / Connie. That's a pretty good clue as to where this came from....
denisegold Posted June 4, 2013 Report Posted June 4, 2013 When and if they can change the lume I'm all in.
prdubis Posted June 4, 2013 Author Report Posted June 4, 2013 Yes it's coming from Connie!Didn't know it was OK to advertise...FYI, the dial is being updated with correct blue lume :-)
denisegold Posted June 4, 2013 Report Posted June 4, 2013 Yes it's coming from Connie! Didn't know it was OK to advertise... FYI, the dial is being updated with correct blue lume :-)let us know when it happens!!
andyc2 Posted June 5, 2013 Report Posted June 5, 2013 What's the quality of the bracelet / clasp on this rep?
