B&M Magnum Riviera XXL

[fitipaldi2]

Hi, a few days ago I received this beauty from Andrew.

I have an Omega SMP Chrono, a Tag Heuer Carrera, a Tag Heuer Aquaracer Day/Date, a Cartier Santos Chrono and a Panerai Regatta Flyback. After to compare all of them, I realized that the Riviera Magnum is ''The One''. The rep is magnificent. I strongly suggest to all chrono fans this watch. You will love it.

Here some pics:

Tomorrow I will add more pics.

That looks great! i been debating getting this one...how is the AR on this watch?

[fitipaldi2]

It has single AR, but no so strong. Tomorrow I will post more pics.

P.D: I hope a lot of people buy this watch, because I'm waiting for dealers decide to produce this one:

How is the bezel?

Is the piece on top made of titanium or plastic as some had feared?

Looks great!

[fitipaldi2]

is 100% titanium

[Chronus]

is 100% titanium

Thanks! I'd been wondering about that...

And I like the pic of the watch you want as well... that one looks just lovely.

I have one of these on the way, I got an extra metal strap and I'm going to see if I can get it to fit.

Good luck and let us know!

I feel there could be issues with the lug screws on this, as the standard version has springbars, I think.

But good luck, and hope that I'm wrong !

Yeah, it will not fit out of the box, I know that from the dealer. But I have a dremel, the will, and some whisky, so I am going to give a go of modding the bracelet to accept the larger lug screws.

I'd love to have the option of a bracelet on this watch, so hope to hear of your imminent success
