rkdk Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 Doesnt look like titanium. Too bad, because it looks fairly accurate:-) would love to strap that beast on my wrist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MADRED7 Posted February 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 aaarrrhhh, I just noticed that the sub-dials color is too silver/gray....should be more off-white like the dial. But if this is a strat with the AP-BIGGIES .... I will have to buy many pieces this year. The SHAQUILLE will be on top of my list Theo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rkdk Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 anyone know if the shaq is made of steel, or ti? If steel, then its an easy job:-) i would love a black dial t3 in titanium. Its actually one of the first watches i really got into. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MADRED7 Posted February 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2009 And now Josh has got the same models (black & white) in his shop...unfortunately no describtion Theo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arrowax Posted February 18, 2009 Report Share Posted February 18, 2009 (edited) Spoke to Josh yesterday about incoming AP's and he said that the terminator will be first to come out. This week. Why is this cheaper than the normal sec@12 though? is it not that accurate? Probably he just haven't updated the price Comments please from those familiar with T3. The only discrepancies I noticed was the wrong subdial color in the white one. Edited February 18, 2009 by arrowax Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smalldogfrenzy Posted February 18, 2009 Report Share Posted February 18, 2009 the chrono pushers and crown are too small and the screws on the crown guards are not the same as the gen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arrowax Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 (edited) hmm..looks ok to me.. is it that visible?

bosk Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 I don't think they made the case big enuf...the inner bezel (tachymeter) is almost vertical....looks bad compared to the gen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThinkBachs Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 I don't think they made the case big enuf...the inner bezel (tachymeter) is almost vertical....looks bad compared to the gen. Good eye! I can't stop looking at the inset hex screws that are poorly done on the first, not bad on the second, and very well done on the gen. Plus the screws, why can't they make the right headed screws? Why go 90% of the way and then drop the ball on one of the easiest parts of the watch to get right?

arrowax Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 Josh told me that with CG it is 53mm, without is 46.5mm. Is that close to gen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arrowax Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 just found out that the gen is 57 mm width. The question is can you see the 4mm difference when you're wearing it? What do you guys think? I personally think it is very hard to notice that on someone's wrist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MADRED7 Posted February 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 I don't think they made the case big enuf...the inner bezel (tachymeter) is almost vertical....looks bad compared to the gen. The size difference is there....unfortunately this new model looks like the same size they had on the old model sec@9 I owned that old model and loved it, especially the dial color....on the other hand I allways compared the size to the real one and it bothered me in the end...the watch is too small and speaking of a watch with a 45mm diameter when it should have 48.5mm....this is a huge difference (not speaking of wrong case material here). I can only hope that they will do the Shaquille O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalayclass Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 They clearly should create a new case with the good sandwich structure and in titanium and with the good size everywhere... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceberg1459 Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 hands are very off... ..chrono pushers also Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bertieng Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 Forget about this one. No way they will go for a new case for other models considering the number of cases they have made already. It will cost them a fortune to start again with a new design. CAD machining is no cheap thing man. Stick with the ROO@12 which is still one of the almost perfect AP rep on teh market so far in terms of accuracy and finish.

rkdk Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 On the bright side, at least they got rid of the ho(e)s on the dial. Nothing more anoying than ho(e)s on your dial. Thats the one place you dont want them. Unless your a pimp. And then youd probably go for a more leopardy/gold type of watch. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JHM Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 I've been waiting for a good T3 for 2-3 years now. It's getting closer, bet still to many flaws Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
