I would like to get one for my X"Mas Thk Both dials are pretty nice but there might be some brown discoloration on the white dials. I'm not sure if they've fixed the problem.

rosnik Posted September 18, 2008 Report Share Posted September 18, 2008 Rumors seed that the white dial have better luminova . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snoxx Posted September 22, 2008 Report Share Posted September 22, 2008 Rumors seed that the white dial have better luminova . Is it true??? So it means the white dial should be closer to gen than black dial... I am kind of in the middle as well. Also undecided about SS or rubber... Which one is closest to gen???

Guest Sql_pl Posted September 22, 2008 Report Share Posted September 22, 2008 White dials have better lume but subdials are too dark. Quite a give away. Now that black dials have lume (weak but at least there is some lume) I think black is the way to go. It also makes the date window location flaw less visible. As for bezel - Rubberclad looks great but it has a thin layer of rubber that can easily be scratched. Personally I actually prefer the look of brushd steel over rubber so my choice now is a black ss themes with ss bezel and rubber strap. Thanks!

I ordered the exact same SS bezel with rubber strap combo from Angus as well :) Great minds think alike LOL By the way the lume on mine is quite weak... Any comments on yours?

Guest Sql_pl Posted October 1, 2008 Report Share Posted October 1, 2008 My watch is still in trasit... tracking did not change since saturday.... damn it's hard to wait... and I also have a HBB Tuiga in that same parcel! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyby75 Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 Thanks for the advise... I also think the way to go is with the black ss, and rubber strap...nice The rubberclad seems to give too many problems with the thin rubber coming off.

dorgenss Posted November 11, 2008 Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 Sometime ago I have buyed a MBW Safari MBK from Paso of Repgeek Is possible to see a good pic of the dial in the site of Chris It is correct, white whit white/silver subdials. But my AP has the secons running at nine The new AP is correct, seconds at 12, ok, but the subdials are incorrect. I see the pics of Angus, I have not it Very difficult, coorrect dial or correct seconds ? Dial MBK on asian AP @12 ? I think that is impossible, for the position of date Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mglawrence2001 Posted November 11, 2008 Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 I have just purchsed a black faced rubberclad from silex. I'm pretty particular about these things. I started out same as you, black or white, admittedly it is a taste question and can only speak from experience. Before buying mine I was given an AP book w/ colour photos. Upon recieving mine I was stunned to see what an excellent match (or 1:1) it was. It is early days and there have been reports of issues w/ luminova and PVD coating on the bezels. SO far mine appears pretty F***ing spot on. I don't want to shout out too much 'bling' wise w/ the watch that I wear, I like something that appears a little more 'discerning' and hence thethe B/F Rubberclad ROO. If you have the patience to wait, SIlex seems pretty good. I did the noobie thing and went weak at the kneees when I read the EMS Tracking noting "in hands of US Customs', but it turned up a day later and was just as described by other wizened members of the forum who had explained the 'delivery process' on a thread. Good luck and where it well - whatever your choice. mglawrence2001 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosnik Posted November 12, 2008 Report Share Posted November 12, 2008 PVD coating on the bezels. ??????????? Are you sure? The 'rubberclad' APROO do have rubber covered bezel too, not PVd bezel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
