pizzanooo Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share 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 Share Posted September 20, 2007 Looks good. Maybe the QC issues are being addressed at last. Thanks for the photos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watchmeister Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share 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.

pizzanooo Posted September 20, 2007 Author Report Share 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 Does the orange bezel light up on the gen? I thought it glowed bright orange but I could be wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrgod Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share 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.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
