ryaku Posted July 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 Genuine pic: Diameter should be 43mm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pix Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 I love it. And prefer a rubber or leather band on it, it gives it a unique look. But never bought from King, and I'm not sure I would start with an additionnal dealer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
By-Tor Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 (edited) Wow... finally. Actually this looks quite accurate. But WTF is that rubber band? No thanks. I'll get this one as soon as the bracelet version is out. I also noticed it has day/date. Is that a new version... the old ones had the standard date setup.

Pix Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 ...if you don't like it, I'll buy it from you and put it on that Quartz Aquatimer we spoke about last time... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
By-Tor Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 This watch needs to be on a bracelet. That rubber strap is utterly ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pix Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 I agree... C'mon, get rid of that ugly strap when you get it ! The Aquatimer is the first Tag that really grows on me since the SLR... Curiously, I'm not a link fan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolexman Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 (edited) YESSSSSSSSSSSSS.... I agree. As soon as the bracelet comes out I'm gonna jump on this one!! BTW: The logo is way off, or is it me? The gen is painted on and the rep is like a silver plate.....

Kollektor Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 Rubber strap is hideous. I'm with By-Tor on this one. Love the AquaR chrono gen and even the Aquaracer 2000 ETA black bezel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
By-Tor Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 No thanks, I'll pass the rubber band version. There must be a bracelet version coming out too... remember Carrera? I agree... C'mon, get rid of that ugly strap when you get it ! The Aquatimer is the first Tag that really grows on me since the SLR... Curiously, I'm not a link fan. Ditto. This is friggin' awesome looker... TAG's nicest watch. Ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azerbyjam Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 Looking at the logo, is it raised or printed on the dial? I've got the smaller gen Aquaracer and it's printed. King's shots looks like it's raised? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
By-Tor Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 Looking at the logo, is it raised or printed on the dial? I've got the smaller gen Aquaracer and it's printed. King's shots looks like it's raised? Yeah, it's definitely printed on the old version (without day/date). Bummer. It's weird that TAG's official site still only shows the standard day version (without date). Wonder if anyone can find anything other than factory shots of this (supposedly) new version?

azerbyjam Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 By-Tor, actually I think it might be correct -I just saw a shot taken at Basel07 (which I now cannot find!!) and it looked like it might be raised. Try searching for some Tag high res shots from Basel!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMK000 Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 (edited) Here is a close up of the genuine 43mm excl crown. I have seen both white dial and black with black rubber. I've never seen blue dial on a black rubber ( :yucky: ) The rep looks quite close and with good AR. Edited July 26, 2007 by AMK000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By-Tor Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 Thanks. Raised it is then. Damn... I need this watch. Asap... now where the hell is the bracelet version already? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rolli Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 this aquaracer chrono can be also my interest, but with bracelet. absolute nice watch. rolli Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pix Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 The date's not aligned... I mean on the rep Nothing but normal, I agree. The rubber strap on the black dial fits with what I would like. I agree, blue dial and black rubber is harder to swallow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
By-Tor Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 For me it's the blue version or nothing. The black w/ rubber strap is very good looking though... but I've always wanted the blue one. The polished middle link bracelet looks really nice with this particular watch. The Asian 7750 day/date is never perfectly aligned. I would have preferred the standard date version, but what can you do... I'm not complaing now when they finally did this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mezzanine Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 Does the gen have double AR? I hope that the rep does, if the gen has a double AR'd crystal. Agreed that the bracelet is a necessity on this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomRiddle Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 I would love to see this badboy in an exotic blue-ish leather band ^^ well.. since the dial is blue i jus wanna see it on an exotic band (non shark or stingray) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
italiano17771 Posted July 27, 2007 Report Share Posted July 27, 2007 i have to agree with the majority....need the bracelet, although the pics of the gen dont look that bad with the black/rubber band. im not too sure if tag's have AR...i never saw a genuine tag with ar, but i guess if the rep has it and the gen doesnt i really cant complain. sure looks like the rep has it from looking at kings pics. EDIT: just confirmed the gen does in fact have AR coating!! can anybody confirm what king means when she says "have rubber strap with steel band."?? hopefully they do have the bracelet and she just didnt post pics yet. anybody know how thick this one is??
