Ferrari Scuderia 008

I just received my Ferrari chrono. What an amazing rep. I won't embarrass myself with my lack of photo skills, there are already plenty of great shots here on the forum. I haven't seen the gen, but I compared the watch to some ad photos here:

Looks very close to the gen. I first thought the Scuderia symbol was a little too fat, but through the loupe it looks right on.

Great watch. Even looks OK on my 7 inch wrist. The 7750 is running fine, including the chrono. The bayonet crown worked as it should, and the screw down pushers are smooth as silk. The strap is great and the deployment clasp works well. All in all, I'm really happy with the watch.

Now Lucas RWG magazine has me looking at the B&R 01-92. Great idea by the way, Lucas

Got one from him, too! Great watch! Been wearing it for a week now...alternating with the HBB!!! Question though, is the yellow dot on the crown also on the Gen?

Hike,

Yes it is. The yellow dot should seat at the three o'clock position when the crown is locked (bayonet type crown) Turn it to twelve to release the crown, then reverse to lock.

Hope I wasn't telling you something obvious.

Thanks, Deen! I kinda figure that one out, but not sure about it being there....I don't see it on any of the Gen pics that I have seen so far! Enjoy your watch like I do mine. BTW: Just ordered this PNA10012 Velcro strap for 44mm Panerai Watches - Black/Yellow from Joshua for the FR0008. I'll let you know how it looks like when I have it switched!

Have a Happy Easter!

Hike,

It's hard to see on most of the gen pictures, but it is there. That strap will be an interesting look. Take some pics.

Thanks and you have a great Easter.

Hike,

Check out this auction on the Bay. Scroll down to the mini pics and look at the one of the crown/pushers.
