mike00 Posted April 17, 2016 Report Posted April 17, 2016 Has been a while since I have ordered a watch...Mostly Rolex but this time I could not resist. It's not that I am a true LW fan, but this carbon/green combo is tha BOMB! Again as always the transaction was smooth and fast, Thanks Andrew! I am not the guy who places detailed reviews regarding specs etc. But I do like making pics. Pics often say more then words, I guess that's true indeed.

jasonbaylee Posted April 17, 2016 Report Posted April 17, 2016 Very generous photos, mate! I appreciate those wristie's posts. Thx for the special backdrops. How do you find the strap & fc of the case? I love to see more close-up shots of the dial etc. More than 1 road to Rome...
swdivad Posted April 17, 2016 Report Posted April 17, 2016 Great photos! The watch looks great, how does it feel? Does it wind well and does the crown screw in smoothly and feel secure? Is the strap comfortable? Would love a lume shot! I'm not really an LW fan either, but this looks pretty cool and different than the normal offerings out there. It would be nice to come out with some other LW models like the spidolite titanium... the case work is really nice!
panerai153 Posted April 18, 2016 Report Posted April 18, 2016 Mike, those are fantastic photos. I just got mine yesterday, and only got the chance to put it on this afternoon. Lots of things I like about the watch, a few I don't. It seems to be wearing fine. I like to wear my watches a little loose. This one seems to stay in place better than a lot that I have owned. Some have a tendency to want to "turn turtle", this one doesn't. The minuses to me are the legibility, black minute markers, between the lumed ones at 3,6,9,12 are hard to see. Also the Lume leaves a lot to be desired. I suppose with the small narrow indices and not a lot of room for Lume on the hands, that's what you would expect. Would be interesting to see how the Lume is on the genuine version. Thanks very much for your fine pictorial review. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk 1
indywatchguy Posted April 21, 2016 Report Posted April 21, 2016 Nice piece! Thanks for sharing! Enjoy to the max!
Haziel Posted April 21, 2016 Report Posted April 21, 2016 LOL i had a coffee with Jorn Werdelin (CEO and one half of the company with Morte Linde the designer) here in London very charming and fun man so looking at this post is kinda cheating with his woman He usually wears the spidolite in YG and it's a stunner in the flesh loads of wrist presence you can spot it quite often walking down Portobello Road. Had a look at the Oktopus moon tattoo (the diver one) YG with case engraved like the pan firenze 604 and again an hell of a watch. Price-wise they are over the top imho because of the limited run policy we are talking the ROO region 25k£ Movements from a swiss based company Concepto...modular movement for the chrono with the obvious choice of Dupuis 1
swdivad Posted April 21, 2016 Report Posted April 21, 2016 I'm really warming up to this watch... could be a next, ar at least a next next, next! :-D Curious about what are the numbers and letters inside the holes on the sides of the case...
lilypad Posted April 21, 2016 Report Posted April 21, 2016 Looks really good. The only "tell" that I really can differentiate from the genuine is the movement thats obviously missing a couple of mods to make it look genuine. Here is a good pic of the genuine movement: And: Other than that I think the watch looks legit. Can you find any other obvious tells?

GenTLe Posted April 23, 2016 Report Posted April 23, 2016 Trusty on Rwg.bz is asking for comments on these new dials they are going to be produced. Stay tuned!
lilypad Posted April 26, 2016 Report Posted April 26, 2016 (edited) They should have made it like this on the green. http://d.pr/i/HeTw As: http://d.pr/i/1lzYq Edited April 26, 2016 by lilypad
