subzero1 Posted March 29, 2007 Report Share Posted March 29, 2007 Hi, just picked this up. Had some problems with the top lug screw but managed to get it sorted (despite King refusing to help me with it and accusing me of damaging the watch). Anyway, its a great rep and the quality overall is outstanding, easily among the top 5 reps I own. The strap is very good quality, best I've seen on a rep yet. I changed the stitching to yellow since I think it looks much sharper like that compared to the stock white stitching. Enough talking, here's some pics: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hiker01 Posted March 29, 2007 Report Share Posted March 29, 2007 That looks beautiful! Now I'm giddy waiting for mine to arrive from Josh! Should be here soon. How did you change the stitching to yellow. That really looks sharp! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subzero1 Posted March 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2007 Thanks! There's 2 ways you can do it, you can unstitch the old white stitch and re-stitch it with new yellow stitching (there's a tutorial here on how to do restitching), or you can use a yellow sharpie to color the white stitching. I went the sharpie route, it worked out pretty well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cpt390 Posted March 29, 2007 Report Share Posted March 29, 2007 How long is the strap on this watch? I have an almost 8 inch wrist and many of the normal Rep straps don't fit me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pam-O-licious Posted March 29, 2007 Report Share Posted March 29, 2007 Love that Chrono design...Looks Great Wear it well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willith Posted March 29, 2007 Report Share Posted March 29, 2007 Very nice watch and you did well with the Sharpie coloring. I just wish it had a date window, I would use that more than the chrono to time myself running up and down the stairs at work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigpops Posted March 29, 2007 Report Share Posted March 29, 2007 Right, that's it. I haven't bought a watch since November, and i have to have this one. I did wonder about yellow stitching myself, and it looks just as good as i expected. Enjoy it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dosanim Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 Very nice watch and you did well with the Sharpie coloring. I just wish it had a date window, I would use that more than the chrono to time myself running up and down the stairs at work. I happen to have chance to put Gen one with date window, non-chrono @ Tourneau today. Very nice piece. Price tag was $5300.00 and AD senior rep told me that not many dealers have it yet in their store. I'm very tempted to get rep one since photo from saah or TTK look very close to the Gen one I tried it today. One thing now I can say which one is rep is that back of gen was A04XX/1000. Rep shows AXXX/700. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
