italiano17771 Posted June 12, 2008 Report Posted June 12, 2008 ya i saw that on josh's site. the DW looks a hell of alot better, but they are still using those crappy rep leather straps! wish they repped the rubber or the mesh. still looks good though!
yim156 Posted June 12, 2008 Report Posted June 12, 2008 (edited) Wow..... Thank you for the link. Very nice, I love them but @ his price of $8,888. I would get GEN. LOOK !! Joshua also has it @ $888,888. It would be better to get ourselves some Ferrari. http://www.pc-80108.com/0251-p-4657.html http://www.pc-80108.com/0251a-p-4658.html http://www.pc-80108.com/0251b-p-4659.html Hahaha....... Come on mann. Just kidding. BTW, The brown color looks different from other sellers. Is it because the way they take photos? Edited June 12, 2008 by yim156
subzero1 Posted June 12, 2008 Report Posted June 12, 2008 Bezel looks better on this one, with a bit more of a slight curve outward that really ties the bezel shape and crown shape together. Lume dots look better applied on the dial as well.
By-Tor Posted June 12, 2008 Report Posted June 12, 2008 Looks really nice. Correct datewheel in a 7750 rep? The world must be ending.
b16a2 Posted June 12, 2008 Report Posted June 12, 2008 Looks really nice. Correct datewheel in a 7750 rep? The world must be ending. Unfortunately By-tor, this is the basic lay out movement, I am pretty certain we can be safe in the knowledge the world won't end, it is unlikely we'll ever see a good datefont made for the chrono version
andreww Posted June 12, 2008 Report Posted June 12, 2008 Yes, looks like a nicely decorated 2824 or 2836. Looks very nice indeed!
andreww Posted June 12, 2008 Report Posted June 12, 2008 Comparing it to a pic of the gen I couldn't find any obvious flaws. The only thing I could see is that the smaller hour markers may be ever so slightly too wide, but that may just be the lighting. Looks like this one is bang on out of the box! Now if they could get the proper mesh bracelet or rubber strap to go with it
Mickey Padge Posted June 12, 2008 Report Posted June 12, 2008 So they finally fixed the "P" and "A" alignment! This looks much better than the older version, How many peeps will be selling their old model off cheap now I wonder?
Shundi Posted June 12, 2008 Report Posted June 12, 2008 Well...we know that the datewheel has a great "6" at the very least lol...
ta8088 Posted June 12, 2008 Report Posted June 12, 2008 ya i saw that on josh's site. the DW looks a hell of alot better, but they are still using those crappy rep leather straps! wish they repped the rubber or the mesh. still looks good though! Yes, I they could rep the Ocean Racer deployment strap I'd be all over this. Have held off on a SOH simply because the only thing I want to put it on is the rubber deployment and just can't bring myself to spend $350 on it. They did a fantastic job on the 1:1 UPO strap so I know they could do the Ocean Racer. Think that if they did the rubber and mesh they would sell quite a few.
lanikai Posted June 12, 2008 Report Posted June 12, 2008 .................................. .............................................. .............................................................................. You will be more surprised by the price tag.....
yim156 Posted June 12, 2008 Report Posted June 12, 2008 .................................. .............................................. .............................................................................. You will be more surprised by the price tag..... Both Joshua and Andrew updated the price to be $218. Is it a WOW!! price? but, anyway, they state the movement is Asian 2824 so the best thing is "NO LIES"!
asiparks Posted June 12, 2008 Report Posted June 12, 2008 I just ordered one from Ruby...I'll wait to see what the pic looks like when she sends it.... otherwise I'll grab an IWC 3717 off her instead and get the SO from TT....
lanikai Posted June 13, 2008 Report Posted June 13, 2008 Both Joshua and Andrew updated the price to be $218. Is it a WOW!! price? but, anyway, they state the movement is Asian 2824 so the best thing is "NO LIES"! I'll settle for the Asian ETA.. it is 28.8k.. I think the key point here is the replication of the timepiece was started the day that the genuine was released to the AD... and it is being delivered at a very affordable price, given that I'm sure I'll find the same details on the rep that are on the genuine... What makes this even more of a bonus for me is this replica was done (to my understanding) by one of the top makers,..it's been about what 7-8 months ??.. cannot wait !!!! And Mr. Yim.. Can we please put to rest the "lies" portion of your post .. that happened before you were around ?? I think we all have gotten past that .. thanks..
andreww Posted June 13, 2008 Report Posted June 13, 2008 Hats off to J&A for not trying to pass this off as Swiss ETA. From the reactions I've seen, nobody has a problem with this movement, and at a decent price I'm sure this will be a popular choice. Thumbs up guys!

From the reactions I've seen, nobody has a problem with this movement, and at a decent price I'm sure this will be a popular choice. Thumbs up guys! amen Andrew... J & A & other dealers have made changes to the way they do business... mainly due to the good inputs from EuroTimez... so I praise Chris for that, amen indeed... these Breitling reps are just simply getting better & better... gotta find ways to make more money to get more of these super reps!!!
JuiceMaker Posted June 13, 2008 Report Posted June 13, 2008 oh yea, what's wrong with this "leather" strap deployment quality??? it IS genuine leather is it NOT??? is the leather too hard or something???
lanikai Posted June 15, 2008 Report Posted June 15, 2008 oh yea, what's wrong with this "leather" strap deployment quality??? it IS genuine leather is it NOT??? is the leather too hard or something??? nothings wrong with the leather.. members are referring to the fact that it is alligator "grain" on leather..faux alligator
milsub5517 Posted June 16, 2008 Report Posted June 16, 2008 what color dial r u guys ordering? is blue accurate?
lanikai Posted June 16, 2008 Report Posted June 16, 2008 what color dial r u guys ordering? is blue accurate? the genuine was Blue.. if a choice needs to be made .. alway's Blue.. it is the hardest to perfect.. so brown and Black are done with as musch research as possible .. but Blue .....
Samurai Posted June 16, 2008 Report Posted June 16, 2008 Thanks Lani....this is good info. I was on the verge of ordering a black from Josh....now will have a look again @ the blue.
