Watchmeister Posted March 23, 2008 Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 Wow, those are absolutely stunning. Wear them well. I had been avoiding the current MBW's hoping to wait it out for the seconds at 12 but the Safari looks incredible. Congrats on a great purchase. You may get a PM asking how you source that one. My willpower is waning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tanya Posted March 23, 2008 Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 Just Awesome !!!! Do the dials say swiss made at 6??? Angus seems to have these very same MBW's but without the swiss made at 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
20Babies Posted March 23, 2008 Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 Looks like the seconh hand is at 12. What movement is in the APs? Wow, those are absolutely stunning. Wear them well.

sander Posted March 23, 2008 Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 Just Awesome !!!! Do the dials say swiss made at 6??? Angus seems to have these very same MBW's but without the swiss made at 6 I really like those Hornback straps. Did they originally come with it? Unfortunately no swiss made at 6 but they are absolutely beautiful. Wear them well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pamfried Posted March 24, 2008 Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 I really like those Hornback straps. Did they originally come with it? Unfortunately no swiss made at 6 but they are absolutely beautiful. Wear them well! HornBack strap comes together with the watch. Just like the GEN, an HornBack croc. MBW has confirmed there will be no more swiss made at 6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drop Posted March 24, 2008 Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 Wow, the Safari looks great. Thanks for the pics... I am more sorely tempted now than ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pamfried Posted March 24, 2008 Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 (edited) Wow, the Safari looks great. Thanks for the pics... I am more sorely tempted now than ever. Thanks. Yes they're really fantastic reps. And going with that HornBack strap like the GEN, its just perfect. GEN OEM AP Hornback easily costs 600USD up if i'm not wrong. And other aftermarket Hornback are extremely expensive too. Kudos to MBW to rep this model and providing the HornBack, thats real icing on the cake! You seldom see manufacturers going all out to do that. Edited March 24, 2008 by pamfried Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corgi Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 Oh brother is his face going to be red when they release the proper seconds-at-12 versions a few months from now! Joking aside, I really like these AP chronos but I think they are a little too big and bold for my taste. It seems, however, like you really enjoy them - and that's really all that counts!! Nice trio! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pamfried Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 its a very distant few months. :-) the movt with secs at 12 is very unstable thats all i know. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertk Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 Gorgeous watches. But, even though I'm not usually anal, the running seconds at the 9:00 really bothers me since the subdial at 12 is the sixty second dial! I finally found something I am anal about. Hope they figure out a reliable movement with seconds at 12:00. Of course, if that happens we'll also have a reliable movement with seconds at 6:00!

swdivad Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 OH NOOOO... Those look fantastic! Another watch purchase looming Seconds at 12 is my grail... hope to get one that doesn't have an issue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emuozz Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 (edited) Nice … I love those safaris, but I prefer a bracelet for the Royal Oak. I think that the new movement modification (secs to 12) would be as bad as the one on the daytona (secs to 6) I hope to be wrong. Congratulations on your new watches Edited March 25, 2008 by emuozz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MADRED7 Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 @pamfried ...good choice, congrats. If they only did the dial better....this version is simply white with black numbers...the GEN Safari dial is off-white with dark brown numbers. But this is as close as it gets...and the hornbacks are just fantastic....have to ask my dealer for one of those as an upgrade Thanks for showing, Theo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pamfried Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 maybe the lighting but the dial is defo not white bro. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dadog13 Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 wow...these are really nice...I love the hornback strap...it is nice that they did this one as well...another little step to look more like the gen... I wonder how much it will cost an AP ROO with running sec at 12 once they release it...around +/- 1000$? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder how much it will cost an AP ROO with running sec at 12 once they release it...around +/- 1000$? Yea i cant imagine what the secs at 12 would be priced at but not in the near future. Too unreliable and lots of problems to solve. And MBW is not the type to release something that is not ready for the masses when his stuff is not problem free.
