Pugwash Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 Ah, I've been waiting for this one! How's the AR? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PureTime Posted July 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 Ah, I've been waiting for this one! How's the AR? Very nice, I think it is the same as the HBB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchmeister Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 Looks good but please make sure inner bezel is in correct position relative to the dial when "clicked" into position. Also that "10" and "15" on inner bezel have their digits more compressed and line-up correctly with the inner hour markers. From pictures the "15" looks very off. These are the principal flaws on the Aquatimer so I hope they can be corrected on this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMK000 Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 That's definately a taker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryaku Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 Eta correct date font would be a plus indeed. Else we should replace it later. Nice watch....i'm just curious about price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bing-o Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 Any idea if the issues brought up above will be addressed? When will it be ready? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajoesmith Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 Nice watch but why bother? The 3717 is much nicer, more classy and has less possible flaws Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cornerstone Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 Nice watch but why bother? Yeah, why bother? I mean, we've all got our subs already! We're done! This release is going to be tough to resist - looking forward to the challenge! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dani Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 Looks great Angus,you will be contacted by me when its out And Kruz00 said all the flaws that need to be corrected so read that my friend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugwash Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 Nice watch but why bother? Now I have to kill you. :Jumpy: This replica stopped me selling everything to buy the genuine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uziuzi Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 Nice ! Here the gen for direct comparison: Cheers ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugwash Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 Angus, there is a problem with your designation. The IW371928 (aka IWC 3719-028) is the SS Aquatimer with the SS Bracelet. What you're showing here is the IW371933 (aka the IWC 3719-033) as it's the SS Aquatimer with the Rubber strap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watchmeister Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 How you can have time to pick up all this knowledge and make 9,000 posts is still a mystery to me. Unless you have an evil twin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uziuzi Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 Hmmm...interesting nobody mentioned it yet. But the big second hand is apparantly white while it should be steel. I already told Angus, he said it is not just in the picture Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PureTime Posted July 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2007 Oh thanks for letting me know about the big second hand problem! And also thanks for the correction of the wrong designation! I will let the maker know about it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KB Posted July 16, 2007 Report Share Posted July 16, 2007 Ok here's my question; Is this going to be another $600+ Super Rep or are we going to get back to more sensible pricing? Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eunomians Posted July 16, 2007 Report Share Posted July 16, 2007 I can't wait for this watch to be ready. I am ready for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malumouse Posted July 16, 2007 Report Share Posted July 16, 2007 it looks great.....but I would love to see a LUME shot..the best part on this watch...!!...and all the corrections Kruzer said : (quoted from kruzer00 above post)"Looks good but please make sure inner bezel is in correct position relative to the dial when "clicked" into position. Also that "10" and "15" on inner bezel have their digits more compressed and line-up correctly with the inner hour markers. From pictures the "15" looks very off. These are the principal flaws on the Aquatimer so I hope they can be corrected on this one" the new date wheel would be a plus...(ETA)...and make sure the inner bezel is stiff and tight when rotating.....(And of course QC..would be a plus..(But I know Angus is the BEST at that already....!!) Other than those few..i think it looks great.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yellomen Posted July 16, 2007 Report Share Posted July 16, 2007 I requested a complete sample from the maker, flaws not corrected yet, just for eyecandy =) How about the serial number on the caseback... it's not the 3719-XX... or is this not a serial number?

yellomen Posted July 16, 2007 Report Share Posted July 16, 2007 PS. i was at the AD today and saw the Aquatimer chrono... the lume is WHITE... not white like on the IWC CD replica... but seriously WHITE! Pure C1 lume i assume Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrgod Posted July 16, 2007 Report Share Posted July 16, 2007 This looks seriously good! A nice effort! I just wonder if the logo on the crown should be sharper and more defined, like it is on the Ingenieur replica? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
italiano17771 Posted July 17, 2007 Report Share Posted July 17, 2007 damn i really like this model although its only 42 mm. much bigger fan of the black, but i dont know if i can wear a watch that small anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK471 Posted July 17, 2007 Report Share Posted July 17, 2007 I like these watches, but I just know that they'd never see real wrist time. Love the PAMs too much. Then again, the 3717 might have to be an exception. That one would see wrist time, especially with the ETA 7750 transplant. SEXY!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
