webdox Posted December 28, 2008 Report Share Posted December 28, 2008 This is a watch that I have drooled over since I first saw it advertised: I have seen *some* rep bubbles on the net but always it ends up being from a site that upon doing a Google search, shows them to be scammers. I really like the size of these watches; very chunky.. and the band isn't so bad itself. Do any of you fine folks know if any reputable sellers have this time piece? Kind regards.

No, the corum chrono is not available from any of the rep factories. The corum reps being sold have a crystal that is obviously fake. The gen crystal (sapphire) is .3 to .5 times thicker that the rep crystals (always mineral). The gen corum case is a bit different from the rep too so the rep does not sit as nicely on the wrist. I have the gen version of the chrono with silver dial and love it. Since corum has discontinued the bubble line....there are some decent deals out there for the gen. -bosk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webdox Posted December 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 Thank you both for you responses. I figured the bubble crystal would be the kicker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a blue dial once and sold it, the silver dial on bracelet looks nice in stock photos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
