slask111 Posted February 17, 2009 Report Posted February 17, 2009 Heya all, Customs released my dear Ebel after me paying VAT, so here are the first pics. Quick and dirty More to come... just had to post these asap. Yes its a rep ;P
browngo1 Posted February 17, 2009 Report Posted February 17, 2009 I think these are awesome. I fancy the white dial, but that one is fantastic too. Nice pics as well! Hope you enjoy it.
Toadtorrent Posted February 17, 2009 Report Posted February 17, 2009 Very nice pics!!! What was the VAT assessment on this?? The Discovery is a fantastic rep. You wear it well.
ThinkBachs Posted February 17, 2009 Report Posted February 17, 2009 I'm going to go broke watching this forum... Especially when I see threads like this, very nice!
FxrAndy Posted February 17, 2009 Report Posted February 17, 2009 Never really been a fan of Ebel but that looks good on the wrist.
Mendedman Posted February 17, 2009 Report Posted February 17, 2009 This is one fine watch. It's top of my wish list, with a white face and black subs. Congrates
trailboss Posted February 17, 2009 Report Posted February 17, 2009 Nice! Gotta have one. This is my first buy after the AUD comes back a bit. Gotta be a "panda" tho. The white dial/blk subs just leavs the all blk for dead IMHO. Where did you get a Disco for fifty Euro? There 350-400USD! Col.
slask111 Posted February 17, 2009 Author Report Posted February 17, 2009 Thnx for the responses! I have only worn it for short period of time but i really like it. The AR is very nice. Never seen a chief or "swizz" standard AR but this surly beats the UPO or a DSN Pam. Datefont and alignment could be better though. Declared value was 50$
By-Tor Posted February 18, 2009 Report Posted February 18, 2009 Beauty! More pics please! PS: Does your '6 subregister reset properly and stay centered or is there a problem?
rubik888 Posted February 18, 2009 Report Posted February 18, 2009 Excellent choice! This one looks good with a bracelet or a strap. How is its time keeping? More pics would be nice.
By-Tor Posted February 18, 2009 Report Posted February 18, 2009 Just for the record: Ebel Discovery 1911 Chronograph is probably the best and most accurate replica watch ever created, just imho. The only flaw on this watch is the crown which doesn't screw in quite deep enough. Even the datewheel is exact on the rep. In my opinion, this was the "Rep of the Year 2008". I posted some gen pics of this black version in this thread. Just compare the pics guys.
hackR Posted February 18, 2009 Report Posted February 18, 2009 love Ebels...and this black on black Discovery is as hot as the white panda!... i have the BTR quartz: black dial, black bezel, red hands, ss bracelet, AND i have the white dial on order: white dial, polished ss bezel, yellow hands, ss bracelet... the ss bracelet is nice on these, isn't it?...your Discovery has the same one as the BTR... enjoy it and wear it well...looks great on the wrist!... my BTRs below...pssst...$60usd/each!!! R-
slask111 Posted February 18, 2009 Author Report Posted February 18, 2009 This is the "best" version Ebel. Just tryed the Chrono for the first time and it reseted as it should. I was worried about the 6`o clock subdial but it went back to its original positon. All good Ill post more and higher resolution pics later on this week when i have more time. Damn i need to post pics of my new DSN 104 on a V strap aswell. So many watches so little time. This watch is so 1:1. I had my friend go over it for 10 mins with a hughe gen pic displayed on my monitor. He gave up after a while hehe. The look and feel is better then i thought. Im so pleased i sold my tags and omegas and got this instead. Best part is: No one will ever call me out wearing this or belive its a rep. Cant say the same about all peeps at the office wearing Omegas and Breits.
slask111 Posted February 19, 2009 Author Report Posted February 19, 2009 Another wristie. It is easy taking pictures of this watch
strattakan Posted February 19, 2009 Report Posted February 19, 2009 (edited) Damn!!! it Edited February 19, 2009 by strattakan
robertk Posted February 20, 2009 Report Posted February 20, 2009 By-Tor is right. one of the best reps EVER. Wear it well.
rubik888 Posted February 20, 2009 Report Posted February 20, 2009 IMO, this is THE best rep ever made!
anics Posted February 20, 2009 Report Posted February 20, 2009 Yeah, really nice... it just made my wish list! Enjoy! A
hackR Posted February 21, 2009 Report Posted February 21, 2009 Slask -- this post should have a warning?!... always a fan of the "panda" version - and having it on my wish list -- i am more than pre-occupied with this all black dial version...very sharp, uniform look... you should hunt down the Ebel black rubber deployment clasp bracelet for this watch...would really add a diff and great look to an already really sharp watch... what adds to this watch is, as By-Tor mentions, the fact that it's super-rep quality/look...
