Mickey Padge Posted August 18, 2008 Report Share Posted August 18, 2008 I have here a genuine Schwarz Etienne Chrono Prestige, with decorated 7750 and display back. It is a really nice watch with a gloss black dial and matt subdials, nice and simple, but stunning watch..... The watch never had any AR, and so the dial was hidden under lots of glare and reflections on the sapphire crystal, only one way to fix that, double AR! Thank you very much Jakub (K2222) for your superb service, highly recommended by me, it transforms watches! I will let the pictures do the talking, click to expand, super high resolution I tried to get a bit of AR reflection in a picture, but it was quite hard, the reflections are really tricky to photograph! The main reflections you can see here are from the gloss black dial, not the crystal.... All pictures were taken right at my window, with daylight pouring in Comments and observations welcome.....

rolex001 Posted August 18, 2008 Report Share Posted August 18, 2008 Wow, what a beauty - wear it well - that is a stunning watch, may I ask what this costs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickey Padge Posted August 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2008 Wow, what a beauty - wear it well - that is a stunning watch, may I ask what this costs? The little hang tag with the original box and papers says €2000! However I think you can get these for maybe €1200 new, if you are lucky and can find one, however mine is also a limited edition (see 09/40 on the case) I can't remember what I paid, but it was probably in the €1000 region or less.... You can't really see it from the photos, but the bracelet is all individual links, and of very high quality indeed Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogerthat Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 Aftermarket AR not just for reps anymore Good find and nice improvement, I recently sold a Hamilton black dial chrono that really could have used this upgrade. Thanks for sharing, M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickey Padge Posted August 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 Definitely, the AR is good for rep or gen, black dial watches especially Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
