hambone Posted December 9, 2007 Report Posted December 9, 2007 Here are a couple of the ceramic bezel RG HBB dial shots that show how interesting the work on the dial really is.
Tx Walker Posted December 10, 2007 Report Posted December 10, 2007 hambone, those are awesome shots! I think you just convinced me to get one of these. If I may ask, who was your dealer for this?
hambone Posted December 10, 2007 Author Report Posted December 10, 2007 I got my HBB from Trusty Time. It was about 350 bucks less than the current price, however it is the best rep I have ever seen, or purchased. It is unfortunate that they cost so much now. BTW, love the avatar, a machine gunning cat is a fearsome pussy indeed!
hambone Posted December 13, 2007 Author Report Posted December 13, 2007 The combination of material and contrasting textures and the amount of work involved in making the rep of this watch is above and beyond the labor in the manufacture of most watches. This is why they cost so much for a rep. I know many have a hard time grasping the fact that a rep watch is so expensive, but until you see up close how well these are made, it pretty much washes away the skeptisism.
deltatahoe Posted December 13, 2007 Report Posted December 13, 2007 fantastic pics hambone -- really well done i had forgotten the prices on these had skyrocketed :ohmy: deltatahoe
section8 Posted December 13, 2007 Report Posted December 13, 2007 Great pics, what lens did you use for these shots?
hambone Posted December 14, 2007 Author Report Posted December 14, 2007 Photos shot with a Nikon D80 and a 70-300m F/4 Auto focus lens.
TWP Posted December 14, 2007 Report Posted December 14, 2007 (edited) Bone Did you shave the dial? Seriously this version of Big bang that is the best rep on the market. I hefty price for profound beauty. I had the luxury of getting one of these in for a client and I was stunned. My next rep purchase will be this model. Great macro shots Edited December 14, 2007 by TWP

Great macro shots and yet another converted believer the Polished Ceramic+RG HBB's are on a league all its own folks :X and I hate the price and don't support it ...even though I have one and is my beater
anton Posted February 5, 2008 Report Posted February 5, 2008 @hambone: Those shots look good! I could swear you were taking shots of a gen; that datewheel looks too good... gotta love that Nikon gear...for those types of shots I use a 60mm f2.8. worth every penny, IMO.
watchmark Posted February 7, 2008 Report Posted February 7, 2008 can you show watch back picture? thanks
tazzman Posted February 7, 2008 Report Posted February 7, 2008 closed caseback.. tuiga edition.. picture is from TWP.. and..yes it is sooo beautiful.. pictures cant show it !
EuroTimez Posted February 9, 2008 Report Posted February 9, 2008 Love the pics (watch 2), but I guess the Nikon D80 isn't probably the cheapest camera there is Love fiddeling around with, sony R1 haha (nothing in comparison), don't take pictures left and right anyways. Good stuff
tech Posted February 11, 2008 Report Posted February 11, 2008 Doesn't the gen Tuiga come with the Polished Ceramic bezel?
Guest Sql_pl Posted February 12, 2008 Report Posted February 12, 2008 Gen SS Tuiga came with polished ceramic but new RG Tuiga has brushed ceramic. I actually prefer the looks of a polished one so I got a regular RG/Ceramic. It arrived today. And you know what? I am not THAT satisfied..... Maybe it's just that I am no gold guy.... I don't know. Feel a lot more comfortable with my SS version.... WIll try to get used to it and we will see. Will post some pics tomorrow.
