chris5264 Posted February 1, 2008 Report Posted February 1, 2008 Okay, I placed my order. Will make a large review as soon as it gets here... Then we will know more. Me too,,,I went for the blue one but while the looks are basically there,,,I'm more interested in the overall case, screw down crown, bezel action etc. while I'm waiting I'll pick up a 24mm mesh bracelet,,,
shultz Posted February 1, 2008 Report Posted February 1, 2008 Gosh, what a beauty! I hope the black dial will be as shiny as the brown one. Very similar to the UPO but not that typical Breitling style. Will enrich my Breitling collection soon! But would be nice to see it with the new style rubber strap and the new folding clasp soon.
Seadweller4000 Posted February 1, 2008 Report Posted February 1, 2008 Me too,,,I went for the blue one but while the looks are basically there,,,I'm more interested in the overall case, screw down crown, bezel action etc. while I'm waiting I'll pick up a 24mm mesh bracelet,,, Great, I picked up the black one. That mesh bracelet is out of my pricerange right now. But I'm sure it will look gorgeous.

pwrslider Posted February 2, 2008 Report Posted February 2, 2008 Me too,,,I went for the blue one but while the looks are basically there,,,I'm more interested in the overall case, screw down crown, bezel action etc. while I'm waiting I'll pick up a 24mm mesh bracelet,,, Any ideas on the cost of the gen mesh bracelet...I've heard from $500-$350ish....
KB Posted February 2, 2008 Report Posted February 2, 2008 I know someone who has procured a generic mesh strap for a reasonable cost. If it looks the goods I'm sure he will review it and then let everyone know where to get them. Ken
ajoesmith Posted February 2, 2008 Report Posted February 2, 2008 How about this, would it do? Ebay item number 130193536910
Seadweller4000 Posted February 2, 2008 Report Posted February 2, 2008 How about this, would it do? Ebay item number 130193536910 This is 22mm instead of 24mm. But nice find, thanks!
chris5264 Posted February 2, 2008 Report Posted February 2, 2008 Any ideas on the cost of the gen mesh bracelet...I've heard from $500-$350ish.... I'm going generic,,if you look on TZ and search for "Walt99" looks like he sells a decent one for about 120 (usd) and its 24mm.
ajoesmith Posted February 2, 2008 Report Posted February 2, 2008 what about this one 130194108384 Its only $20
chris5264 Posted February 2, 2008 Report Posted February 2, 2008 what about this one 130194108384 Its only $20 That looks pretty good for the pice.....
coolfire Posted February 2, 2008 Report Posted February 2, 2008 That looks pretty good for the pice..... WOW... This generic strap looks really good!
Guest avitt Posted February 2, 2008 Report Posted February 2, 2008 Here's Walt's. This thing is beautiful...worth buying a watch just to be able to wear the bracelet. Pictures are from lonestarwatches.com:
frankpower88 Posted February 2, 2008 Report Posted February 2, 2008 i have 2 mesh bracelets, one 24mm and the other 22mm. i wear the 24 on a sub and the 22 on my steelfish sorry i dont have a pic of the sfso with it but it looks pretty good. i prefer buckles instead of clasps for divers.
Panama Posted February 2, 2008 Report Posted February 2, 2008 (edited) Another small difference: The gen case has a cut out next to the crown. I think its only visiable on back side. Great watch anyway... Edit: Wondering if there`s gonna be a descent rep of the 38mm version... Anybody got an idea what the respective ETA designation of Breitling`s Cal.37 is?
