Gen 2007 Breitling Steelfish with new second hand!

[Rolexman]

Saw it at an AD yesterday and also was able to find a picture for you guys. I don't like it.

Looks like they were out of second hands and used one from a different model.....

The datefont looks like a stock ETA one, not the usual 'custom' breitling font

Hang on, is the tail of the S flat on that one too? Has the visual tell on our reps disappeared?

Damn, it would appear the only remaining tells are the pearl and the lume on the chapter ring.

Quite amazing when you stop and think about the progress made in the last year of manufacturing.

[Rxus]

Well for those of us who purchase reps this sort of progress on the manufacturing side is trully welcomed...But it's very disturbing to those who look at places like ebay for deals on gens.. as i can only imagine the amount of scams that will shortly arise from such accurate reps being produced each day

The original link would use Imageshack too, surely.

The second hand just looks wrong. It is off balence to the rest of the watch.

I know that's what I can't understand. When a picture is linked form this site to the original source it doesnt work. Like the other day with the white steel fish (rep or gen) that we were looking at. When I get the link to the site it appears on originally, it works!

ugly seconds hands... looks more like a gmt hand.

[Pugwash]

I'll go against the general consensus and say the second hand isn't too bad. It's very legible, for instance.

[JWR]

I agree with pugwash... the slightly larger minute and hour hands also look nice, i think.

[Guest chronomat123]

I think that seconds hand looks retarded.

[notguilty]

hee hee that second hand looks like the ones u see on cheap a21j breitling reps.

[FxrAndy]

Are we sure that is a gen? the numbers look rounder on the top than other gen pics i have seen.

I second that... butt ugly!

And yes, it is a gen. I'm a 100% sure. Saw it also at an AD and I know this seller (Alex), he only sells gens.

I included the pic as regular attachment.

Good news then confirmed as genn as one of the tell tales for me was the rounded numerals on the reps but if the gens can also look like that, even better. As for the seonds hands, it looks ok, easy to see that is for sure.
