sammalone Posted June 1, 2007 Report Share Posted June 1, 2007 very nice!............................what happened to king's site?.......has it changed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMK000 Posted June 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 I am really surprised that no many members have payed attention to these new chopards. These are brand new ones , not "collected" yet .... the pages from king's site are hidden (HTML not updated yet). These babys look like the also have Double AR ..... and to be honest dont know how they have managed to combine chrono functions ang GMT hand under an asia 7750.

Chrono and GMT have been combined on the Navitimer World. As much as I like GMTs, I don't know if I would want to tax a 7750 further by adding GMT on top of chrono functions. Beautiful watches, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchmeister Posted June 3, 2007 Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 The gmt function scares me as well. It is a cool watch though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMK000 Posted June 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 White dialed one should have blue hands... ...you are right ... and that's not the only fault GEN: .... asia 7750 both with chronos and GMT ... could be like looking for troubles.

slai Posted June 3, 2007 Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 I'd say the TACHOMETER instead of TACHYMETER is a pretty big flaw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JWR Posted June 4, 2007 Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 http://chopard.watchprosite.com/?show=foru...=299497&s=0 I'd say that Tachometer is just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slai Posted June 4, 2007 Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 Odd, it's tachymeter here - http://us.st11.yimg.com/us.st.yimg.com/I/j...op_1949_7480631 Wonder if Chopard just made a mistake...tachometer makes absolutely no sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doopey Posted June 4, 2007 Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 Odd, it's tachymeter here - http://us.st11.yimg.com/us.st.yimg.com/I/j...op_1949_7480631 Wonder if Chopard just made a mistake...tachometer makes absolutely no sense. This is why: "Since the word TACHYMETER is not an existing word, we decided to use the official English (I checked the Oxford online-dictionary, indeed the word was not found) translation which is TACHOMETER or the French translation which is TACHYMETRE. We do not use anymore TACHYMETER since we can not find this word in a dictionary." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slai Posted June 4, 2007 Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 But tachometer measures speed of rotation...oh well, what do I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JWR Posted June 7, 2007 Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 Apparently double AR per King. Her price -- including shipping -- undercuts Josh and Andrew pretty well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ldewarren Posted June 8, 2007 Report Share Posted June 8, 2007 (edited) I went to take a glance in a chopard store to find out about the "tachometer" and the blue hands, it isn't a joke, on some models it's written "tachometer", on some others it's written "tachymetre", the hands are not blue, they are SS color, It's only a light effect on the pic.

JWR Posted June 9, 2007 Report Share Posted June 9, 2007 the White with black subdials and blued hands and solid back is a limited edition from 2005. The reps are of the regular production 16/8992 and 16/8993 (black and white, respectively) which do not have the solid back, nor does the white version have the blued hands. I believe that a white/white subdials with silver hands model exists, as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ldewarren Posted June 9, 2007 Report Share Posted June 9, 2007 I have passed an order yesterday from Joshua for the one with the black subdials. I'll be able to tell you more in about a week... I hope... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yellomen Posted June 10, 2007 Report Share Posted June 10, 2007 Looks quite nice actually... i hope the rotor is more like the genuine. The XL had perlage on the rotor, but it should cotes de geneve with "chopard" written across it. From the pictures i found (not that much and not so clear) it seems to be OK. ... so no obvious flaws... impressive actually! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sql_pl Posted June 10, 2007 Report Share Posted June 10, 2007 If everything will go right you will see some pics of this model from me soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sql_pl Posted June 10, 2007 Report Share Posted June 10, 2007 The only flaw I see from the pics now is the bezel numbers are to close to the inner edge/crystal. EDIT: Or maybe not. The more pics of gen I see the more variations there are. So it looks like this one is really close! WIll hve to see it in person. I am most interested if they managed to make white dial in correct silvery off white color like it should be done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
