HauteHippie Posted February 24, 2008 Report Posted February 24, 2008 No AR on the left. Double AR on the right... Picture courtesy of Vaccum
rogerthat Posted February 24, 2008 Report Posted February 24, 2008 Looks fantastic! Does it have a relume in the after picture, the lume looks a different color in the shots. Cheers, M
Pugwash Posted February 24, 2008 Report Posted February 24, 2008 This is one watch that screams out for AR. Nice work.
tmg Posted February 24, 2008 Report Posted February 24, 2008 Hmmm, one of those 187's looks vaguely familiar I have to say Chief that your latest AR run is truly unbelievable, it looks like there is no crystal at all!

Hehe - it's hard to find an angle where the crystal is visible with this AR... So is the one on the right yours?
sssurfer Posted February 24, 2008 Report Posted February 24, 2008 That is THE definitive answer, chief! I am now so glad I already stepped into the 'double AR-is-better-than-100% accuracy' path. Just... when am I going to get my crystals back?
bruce79 Posted February 25, 2008 Report Posted February 25, 2008 I'm beginning to think that I have no idea what this ar is like...it's one of those things I just need to see in person to fully appreciate. Pics are great but I just cannot wait to see it in person.

Cheers, M Not a relume, but those are two different watches, and those are two different versions of the 187. The one on the left looks like the "cartel" version with the dark "1000" (incorrect). The one on the right looks like a honpo version with a bright "1000" (correct). I prefer the version on the right as the markers seem to be much thicker, the bezel pearl protrudes from the marker, but I'd take the CG from the left.

Its EL's Upgraded Version and the bezel pearl was redone as it was cracked on arrival.
anton Posted February 26, 2008 Report Posted February 26, 2008 Its EL's Upgraded Version and the bezel pearl was redone as it was cracked on arrival. Doesn't the so-called 'upgraded version' have the silver rings around the lume indices, thus making it "not so much upgraded"?
tmg Posted February 27, 2008 Report Posted February 27, 2008 Doesn't the so-called 'upgraded version' have the silver rings around the lume indices, thus making it "not so much upgraded"? Yes it does have the rings.
