TeeJay Posted July 12, 2007 Report Share Posted July 12, 2007 Probably only about 80% accurate to the gen watch, but it is not going to be given any real scrutiny by people who know anything about watches (other than they tell the time), so that's not a problem. Doesn't have the date window, which I felt was a 'design after-thought', so a cleaner looking dial than the gen watch. '3' Subdial is an incremental day counter, '6' Subdial runs a 24 sweep, but the '9' Subdial appears do do nothing, and tracks 7 points (presumeably days) but anti-clockwise. A 24 hour examination reveals if the dials move by themselves... Aesthetically, a nice watch, but I still don't understand why people go nuts over the Big Bang. Originally purchassed for my sister-in-law's 15th birthday later in the year, I showed it to my fiance when it arrived, she decided she was having it for herself, and it hasn't been off her wrist since. Looks like I'll be ordering a new one for Cait's birthday... The watch was Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jj69 Posted July 13, 2007 Report Share Posted July 13, 2007 What do the two chrono pusher buttons do? What is the case size? 44mm or 41mm? What is the case made from? It can't be real ceramic for that price??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeeJay Posted July 13, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2007 What do the two chrono pusher buttons do? What is the case size? 44mm or 41mm? What is the case made from? It can't be real ceramic for that price??? The top chrono pusher sets the 9 subdial, which counts 7 movements/day of the week. The bottom pusher sets the 3 subdial, which counts the days in the month. The 6 subdial keeps a 24 hour sweep. Once the subdials are set, they adjust themselves automatically. The case size is 44mm The case is stainless steel with a white coating (possibly ceramic paint) The lettering on the back of the case identifies the watch as all stainless. Indeed, it's not ceramic, but, for the price, the watch is effectively disposeable, and someone could wear one, chuck it away if it got scuffed up, and just buy a new one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeeJay Posted July 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 In all fairness to her though, Cait doesn't live with us so never actually saw the watch 'in person', so it's not like she actually stole something she'd taken ownership of She isn't that mean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
