b16a2 Posted June 1, 2007 Report Share Posted June 1, 2007 I see what you mean now Omisana, I thought you meant the KM was red, which is what the gen is. I see that it is faded in the pictures, as Andreww says, I would live with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pugwash Posted June 1, 2007 Report Share Posted June 1, 2007 Yeah!

Are you sure the hands are supposed to be black? We've had a few black hand discussions where it turned out the hands should be silver and that they looked black due to the fact they were reflecting the black card used by photographers do remove reflections on the dial. ps. Cute Avatar! I like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NaviChief Posted June 1, 2007 Report Share Posted June 1, 2007 In fact, the silver hands are correct. The genuine Serie Speciale has been seen with both colored hands as seen in a thread I started at RWI. Here is my original post there: "There are two Serie Speciale Fighters on sale on Ebay right now. One has silver chrono hands like the rep, even though it has a brushed case. Could this be a long lost genuine version, meaning our reps are correct? Or this guy could have dressed up one of Josh's super swiss versions with convincing paperwork and boxes. The other one for sale has the black hands that I have seen on every other gen. Very interesting..... Silver hands: http://cgi.ebay.com/Breitling-Navitimer-Fi...tem140096444089 Black hands: http://cgi.ebay.com/Breitling-Navitimer-Mi...tem160095831369" The rest of the thread is here, where a bunch of people confirm that both watches are genuine. Where is the original citation that the silver hands are wrong? I've looked for it so it could be corrected but could not find it. The hand color is a matter of personal choice now since both seen to be correct, but I think people should not think it has to be changed. Beautiful watch OP, it is my favorite!

BTW thats ADRIANA LIMA in the avatar....BEST SUPER MODEL IMO Yup, dead pretty, but I hear she's annoying in real life. Oh, and she doesn't put out. Not that that matters as all we'll ever get to do is look at pictures of her, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omisana Posted June 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2007 LOL speakin of MOD's i contacted cheiftang regarding the double AR on my navi....and he said that he wont be doing navi's any more as it is really hard to get rid of the exisiting AR and it usually turns green or yellow i guess....so i guess ill just have to live with the normal AR Gona order CHRONO EVO new from RUBY....and in the pics which she posted on the forum....looks like it already has a double AR....or i could be wrong....wat do u reckon?? P.s: Your rite...but she really is somethin to look at....brazillian beauty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b16a2 Posted June 2, 2007 Report Share Posted June 2, 2007 The new Ultimate BCE's come with double AR, and they are an extremely accurate watch, would recommend one to any Breitling fan! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
