Guest RiverwindMDS Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 Very good words from you man. I really appreciate you are releasing this time only the ss version that is the best one. I hope it will be avabile the rg bezel with the right caseback in the future and also the blackmagic. It will be very good. Thanks Angus for all you are are doing for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PureTime Posted December 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 This is incredible, what a watch! That AR is very good! Are the Breitlings going to have a heavy coat like this? Yes for my coming version of breitlings Very good words from you man. I really appreciate you are releasing this time only the ss version that is the best one. I hope it will be avabile the rg bezel with the right caseback in the future and also the blackmagic. It will be very good. Thanks Angus for all you are are doing for us. I will also release the F1 one, but I am now asking the watch maker to make the correct caseback for the RG version, hope this can be done soon.

PureTime Posted December 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2006 Last question before it launches, do you need gold hands on the F1 model or steel hands? If no request then I will have all installed with steel hands as genuine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devedander Posted December 22, 2006 Report Share Posted December 22, 2006 Have any idea when these will become normally available? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sql_pl Posted December 22, 2006 Report Share Posted December 22, 2006 (edited) To be honest in my opinion gold hands would look much better on such a 2Tone watch - especially when hour markers which are also in dial area are gold. V said that it came with only steel hands but I actually found an ebay auction and posted about it couple days ago with a pic of a F1 BB with gold hands. But you will never know. I am not actually buying a 2Tone now so it may be that my opinion does not matter at all I wonder how are these watches going to look like in real life... if the SS will be as great as it is expected to be then I will probably go for a 2Tone version for my GF.

Guest RiverwindMDS Posted December 22, 2006 Report Share Posted December 22, 2006 I think it is much better to have the hands in steel like the original. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omni Posted December 22, 2006 Report Share Posted December 22, 2006 Go with the silver hands. Since this is a two tone, having the mix of gold bezel on a steel case, the dial with gold markers and steel hands seems to match better all around IMHO. I'd agree with having the dial markers and hands all gold if the bezel and case were one color. Besides, I find more credible the Hublot's president, J.C. Bivers's description of the final production of the F1 as opposed to the gold hands I see in the catalog pictures used to sell these watches on the internet. And a real production watch posted by a seller on Timezone, that is more support that the silver hands do follow the Hublot president's description as correct for the F1.

Devedander Posted December 23, 2006 Report Share Posted December 23, 2006 Would it be possible to pay extra to have rose gold hands included and SS ones installed so the buyer could switch out hands later? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finepics Posted December 24, 2006 Report Share Posted December 24, 2006 Well not being very Christian and being a Communist country means they just provide all the [censored] that we commercial Christmas celebrators buy!!
