Guest Sql_pl Posted January 3, 2008 Report Posted January 3, 2008 Just found it on King's site: Not bad but still something feels cheap.... don't you guys think?
jb Posted January 3, 2008 Report Posted January 3, 2008 I'm NOT a fan of AP or Hublot, but I really like this watch because of the crown guards. It's very unique set up. The caseback and dial color are also turn ons.
JWR Posted January 3, 2008 Report Posted January 3, 2008 Dial texture seems a bit light; date depth is off too. probably the source of the 'cheap' feel
Guest Sql_pl Posted January 3, 2008 Report Posted January 3, 2008 Yeah it looks like they've just sticked that cyclops to the dial....
ajoesmith Posted January 3, 2008 Report Posted January 3, 2008 There is already a thread about this and the 'HRS' letters on the 12 oclock subdial is spelt wrong. On the watch its 'HOS' Or maybe it should be POS........

mikellem Posted January 3, 2008 Report Posted January 3, 2008 I think the dial is the "bomb", except I could do without the crown guards... So I suspect a chrono with this dial maybe with normal crown>>?? -MM
MADRED7 Posted January 3, 2008 Report Posted January 3, 2008 I really do like the watch....I waited for a new T3 for the last 2 years but the small size allways stopped me from buying one. Now they imprived the size (me hopes) to a whopping 48mm!!! I mailed KING allready to confirm size and dial color (really dark grey????) and get a price tag. If the price is right, I will be soooooo in and buy this piece. I don

dadog13 Posted January 3, 2008 Report Posted January 3, 2008 Gen is 52,7 mm maybe with the crown and crown guard included...but the case is 48mm...
rkdk Posted January 3, 2008 Report Posted January 3, 2008 LOL Thats so funny with the hour counter. Now thats one pimping watch right there. Got a a counter for the hos (hoes) and everything. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Dario33 Posted January 4, 2008 Report Posted January 4, 2008 Glad to see this is offered in Swiss 7750...but the 'HOS' goof is unfortunate...

gymbound Posted January 5, 2008 Report Posted January 5, 2008 First off, on the gen the Hours is at 6 not at 12, second, the gen is 52mm minus the crown guards. The measurment they list is inclusive of crown guards. A very good friend of mine has a gen.
robertk Posted January 5, 2008 Report Posted January 5, 2008 I checked Josh's site and he lists it at 53mm inclusive of the crown guards, so pretty close. Second, the hours are at 12 on the rep, but the seconds are at 9 and on the gen are at 12. Same problem as the other AP's. Other than that it is a fine looking watch.
alanytical Posted January 5, 2008 Report Posted January 5, 2008 We HOS knows better. It's still a big pimpin' watch though.
MADRED7 Posted January 5, 2008 Report Posted January 5, 2008 I asked KING and she described the size as 57mm with crown.....correct
stevie7s Posted January 5, 2008 Report Posted January 5, 2008 I wish this watch got "terminated". It is not on the top of my list (or the bottom, for that matter)of watches to buy. :yuk:
