pizzanooo Posted September 20, 2007 Report Posted September 20, 2007 Here`s some pics of the new Cousteau that arrived. After a day of handling and setting-resetting, & rotating the bezel, I`m happy to say everything works fine. Bezel rotates nicely no chips as such, and no dust or prints on the inside. Ar is nice, and lume is better than most reps. Case is exceptionally good, especially the back engravings. Rubber strap is good, and detailed as per the gen. Overall the quality is very good on it, as you should expect for the price. Things I would do to it... Datewheel change & a service. Now for the pics...
PAMman Posted September 20, 2007 Report Posted September 20, 2007 Looks good. Maybe the QC issues are being addressed at last. Thanks for the photos.
italiano17771 Posted September 20, 2007 Report Posted September 20, 2007 damn it!!!! i thought i would be good just having the 2006 CD, but after seeing your pics i think i need to get this one too. thanks for the pics....looks great!!
namjah Posted September 20, 2007 Report Posted September 20, 2007 what are the main differences from 06 and 07?
italiano17771 Posted September 20, 2007 Report Posted September 20, 2007 what are the main differences from 06 and 07? dial and the caseback.
rckh Posted September 20, 2007 Report Posted September 20, 2007 Very Good! That's what we want to hear about the quality! Take a deep breath & I'll pull my trigger on it! Bulleye!!! Best Regards, Raymond
pampam Posted September 20, 2007 Report Posted September 20, 2007 Oh wow..dats gorgeous..nice AR too Which dealer has this?
Watchmeister Posted September 20, 2007 Report Posted September 20, 2007 Nice pics. Looks really good. Good to hear you have no QC issues. Is the orange inner bezel lumed reasonably as well? Am I right in saying you have to leave the rotating bezel at a half click to get the best alignment versus the dial? In any case, wear it well.
82KUBA Posted September 20, 2007 Report Posted September 20, 2007 GREAT WATCH !!!! i just got my 06 Cousteau about 2 weeks ago havent even wore it ..waiting for a relume and a service from The Zigmeister ....BUT NOW i want this one lol .... wear it well
pizzanooo Posted September 20, 2007 Author Report Posted September 20, 2007 Hey monte, thanks for adding the lume shot. Was going to do one later. After a couple of days with it, still has me glancing to the wrist way too often.
SAS Posted September 21, 2007 Report Posted September 21, 2007 Mine has arrived yesterday, it's just beautifull !! I wasn't even expecting that much !!! expecting the dust on the dial.
arminvanbuuren Posted September 21, 2007 Report Posted September 21, 2007 wow that lume is perfect!!! does it die down very quickly?
sanro Posted September 22, 2007 Report Posted September 22, 2007 Anyone knows how "waterproof" the Cousteau is? Is it ok for swimming?
jiro Posted September 22, 2007 Report Posted September 22, 2007 damn....one sexy looking watch...... congratz on your new acquisition, pizzanooo & monte~!
Tom Posted September 26, 2007 Report Posted September 26, 2007 Does the orange bezel light up on the gen? I thought it glowed bright orange but I could be wrong.
chrgod Posted September 26, 2007 Report Posted September 26, 2007 Very very nice watch! I am glad they changed the 0001/2500 serial number from the prototype. Really prefer this style over the 2006 CDD. Have to think about either getting this or the new Blackbird..
millemiglia Posted September 26, 2007 Report Posted September 26, 2007 Looks like Out of the Factory super lume, could it be possible?
