swdivad Posted June 29, 2018 Report Share Posted June 29, 2018 I was saving for a gen... Now I can try before I buy. I've always loved the Bathyscaphe and wondered why they hadn't made them before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never seen this available from any of the TDs, but I'm thinking of going for it... It says it's from the ZF factory but not sure what their strength is.

Dan71 Posted June 30, 2018 Report Share Posted June 30, 2018 Maybe this is a new one improved, but if you search on the forum you can found comment about the old one.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I found below photo over on RWI... It was a while back when this canal street version was released and it's pretty terrible... The new one from ZF is a completely different animal but I think I'll hold out for a blue dial or even better a ceramic version (but that might be dreaming) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HKWL Posted July 3, 2018 Report Share Posted July 3, 2018 Would be curious about how you find this rep too. I’ve been interested in the gen for a while now. If the rep is any good I might not spend that money. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swdivad Posted August 19, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2018 There seems to be some confusion whether this is ceramic or titanium case... Andrew just replied to me that the factory told him it's titanium Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgtguk Posted August 19, 2018 Report Share Posted August 19, 2018 Both Ryan and Angus list the blue as ceramic and the grey as titanium, both with ceramic insert, seems a hell of a difference in price between the pieces too, would take the [censored] if they were both titanium!

It's looking good... the movement isn't perfect, but the quality (especially the crown) is good quality, which was not the case on the blue ZF ceramic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am thinking of getting one for myself. My thoughts after a few weeks with this watch: Great quality Running very well Lume is stupendous! Dial is beautiful Very understated Got a compliment already from a stranger I believe the case is flawless Bezel is really super nice If you love this watch, I'd recommend buying it... I hope they come out with more colors, Blue was my first choice, but the quality sucked... This one is first rate! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
