cpaman Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 Any chance we will see one of these from our dealers??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ratchpot Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 I hope so. But given how poor the Mark XV rep was, I'm not getting my hopes up at all about this one. Besides, I think the design of the Mark XVI probably isn't as good the Mark XV. The new pilot's chrono, on the other hand, is an amazing watch.

cpaman Posted February 12, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 I currently have the Mark XV Spitfire on SS bracelet. I would like to get the chrono version, but too many horrer stories about Asian 7750. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eunomians Posted May 12, 2007 Report Share Posted May 12, 2007 I'd like to see a MK XVI rep. I am sure most of Europe, N. America/ S. America, Africa, Caribbean, Australia/Oceania, S. Pole and Asia would, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It took years for a MK XV. And it still is incorrect. There is something about simplicity being the most difficult item to replicate.

erwinner Posted June 10, 2007 Report Share Posted June 10, 2007 (edited) I like it even better with the croc-strap; Great contrast with the black-n-white dial: Also size is excellent for wearing as a dress watch with a decent pin-stripe suit! Only need is to fit in a decent (ETA) movement and make sure the datewheel matches the dial. Than offcourse the hands might be more less-ordinary than usual. Replicating the soft iron inner case would be a bit overkill for a rep I guess. Edited June 10, 2007 by erwinner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
