mike00 Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 First I thank Andrew (trustytime) for the safe delivery, all was packed well like usual. Thanx buddy! Notice: I talked to Andrew this morning and he and Josh still take pre-orders. They are busy working their way through the backorders...patience guys, you will get yours asap! These guys are working like horses at the moment. Andrew mentioned he will get approx 200+ pieces in stock this month to cover all the backorders till date. The factory is allready preparing for new batches so Andrew and Josh can assure the upcomming pre-orders from now will be proceed much faster. My saturdaymorning started pretty well yesterday. At 11.00 the doorbell was ringing and I knew it was the new mikey toy It was a hell of a ride guys... alot of *****ing, nagging, flaming, personal attacks, and i guess some members just cried during the waiting game. Like some other members i knew for a long time this was in the pipeline and i knew it was going to be good. This watch i was really looking forward to, and was it worth waiting...YES! HELL YES!!!! This moring i took many pictures and I am totally in love, different like before. Why? Because i notice how the repgame is changing, from average quality to this nowadays GEN feeling watches. Unbelievable how accurate and well made this watch is in every detail. The strap feels really soft and the watch wears extreme light due to the genuine carbon fiber produced case. It's like the watch becomes a part of your body, when wearing, very different compared to the SS diver we pretty much all own. Case construction is top quality. I dissambled the watch yesterday and the whole case is buttersmooth, outside and inside. During unpacking, the bezel was one of the first thing i noticed regarding smoothness. I think it is really ceramic by the way. The lume application is sharp looking and even applied, guess no handwork anymore but machine applied. The crystal is very clear just like the date magnification. Last but not least...the beautifull carbon fiber pattern. It's is hard to catch in pics like some other members allreay mentioned. It is almost like it's has a kind of sunbusrt effect, it changes constantly depending on the lightangle. Certainly no woodgrain pattern. Imo it looks simular compared to GEN. I am not the best in writing reviews so let the pics speak for themselves. Enioy the ride **** patience please...uploading pics at the moment**** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watchmeister Posted August 19, 2013 Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 Great post. I have no idea where I am in the queue but now I am starting to get antsy. Wear it well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf Posted August 19, 2013 Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 WOW! Great pictures! I received mine today and it looks great. I do think the strap on the noob is much nicer, but this one actually fits me better, so I will take it. Unfortunately the movement or rotor is lose in my watch and it sounds horrible-so I will be taking off the case back when I get home to fix it. I hope the that is not a difficult fix-especially after waiting 4 months for this watch. The only other issue I see is the font thickness and color on the bezel-its too thin and too green, but the green is only noticeable in artificial light. None of that would deter me from getting one though, it's a nice addition to the collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mickey Padge Posted August 27, 2013 Report Share Posted August 27, 2013 (edited) Amazing pics, sure is a beautiful watch! How about the movement? I have heard rumours of a lower quality clone being used, some kind of new movement? Has anyone taken a good look inside one of these beasties?

edgematic1 Posted August 27, 2013 Report Share Posted August 27, 2013 Amazing pics, sure is a beautiful watch! How about the movement? I have heard rumours of a lower quality clone being used, some kind of new movement? Has anyone taken a good look inside one of these beasties? I opened it up but I'm not a knowledgable guy about movements. I heard the same about the movement that it would be inferior. I did not see any ETA stamps at all though (as far as the Asian ETA has got stamps...). It's running good imo. Someone who can tell from my pic? (see my review) I have another pic on my phone as well if it could help... I'm happy about the movement as of now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
