Samurai Posted February 22, 2009 Report Posted February 22, 2009 As per Josh the rotors for the watch have been updated but the pics haven't.
MasterOfPuppets Posted February 22, 2009 Report Posted February 22, 2009 one more question, from y'alls experience, will the price of this watch drop in the near future? its not really a cheap replica, im in love with this watch and i dont want to have any regrets from buying it! should i wait?!
morlock Posted February 22, 2009 Author Report Posted February 22, 2009 Thx morlock, but the link u provided has "calibre 16" on the rotor, maybe they didnt update the pics and the price is abit too high, but its just too hard to resist!! ill ask, and if they did change the rotor, ITS MINE amazing review, well done F*ZZ, that's correct, the picture are not updated, but does the watch. And yes it's pricey, as I mentioned in the review I got it for a friend (I am not at TH), but it's wroth it, due it's well constructed, the disk mod and presence.
MasterOfPuppets Posted February 22, 2009 Report Posted February 22, 2009 thanks again morlock, for your replies and the helpful review someone should be hiring you as a marketing manager cuz im buying this rep after reading this great job buddy!
morlock Posted February 22, 2009 Author Report Posted February 22, 2009 thanks again morlock, for your replies and the helpful review someone should be hiring you as a marketing manager cuz im buying this rep after reading this great job buddy! That's a great idea, and they don't even need to pay me money, just send the right doses of watches every month..... That's the problem with addiction, you are open to sell your soul for it.
MasterOfPuppets Posted February 22, 2009 Report Posted February 22, 2009 your absoloutly right! ive only been here for about a month and im totally hooked! right now im thinking of buying these: - Tag heuer grand carrera calibre 17 - IWC Big pilot (ceramic) - Omega UPO (with the correct logo and a decent AR) if someone smart enough would start producing it! - and ofcourse no watch is complete without it's boxset! this new hobby is gonna make me go bankrupt, but i love it

morlock Posted February 23, 2009 Author Report Posted February 23, 2009 Great review. Well done mate. I guess I'll have to get this one now. How is seconds disc movement? Jerky? Am looking at either getting the steel with white face or the RS2 pvd Ltd. Ed Samurai, to my eyes. the disk moves smooth considering the movt and the mod to convert from hand to disc sec, and moving it to 3 o'clock position. As I mentioned in the review, I ordered it for a friend and I no longer have the piece with me, but I am going to ask my friend to capture the sec disk on video, if I get it, i'll post it.

jn1975 Posted February 23, 2009 Report Posted February 23, 2009 Thanks for sharing this info with us. A really nice review to read.
Samurai Posted February 23, 2009 Report Posted February 23, 2009 Damn....been trying to order one since the last couple of hours.....the transaction keeps getting declined. Josh should hopefully have this sorted out by tomorrow.
morlock Posted February 24, 2009 Author Report Posted February 24, 2009 Damn....been trying to order one since the last couple of hours.....the transaction keeps getting declined. Josh should hopefully have this sorted out by tomorrow. Good luck. Black or white face ?
arr Posted February 27, 2009 Report Posted February 27, 2009 I'm wondering if the sunken datewheel might not be as noticeable on the PVD version. The SS version seems to make the date window stand out more, to me.
Samurai Posted February 27, 2009 Report Posted February 27, 2009 Good luck. Black or white face ? Black face Steel...as I think it looks the classiest of the lot....managed to order it using my iPhone. Should be on my wrist by Tuesday.
MasterOfPuppets Posted February 27, 2009 Report Posted February 27, 2009 couldn't help but notice this, are my eyes decieving me or are those dust particles that are on the dial? u can see that there are 2 big ones plz say it ain't so
morlock Posted February 28, 2009 Author Report Posted February 28, 2009 Black face Steel...as I think it looks the classiest of the lot....managed to order it using my iPhone. Should be on my wrist by Tuesday. Good choice, the black dial highlight the window for the chrono. And if you like Formula 1, it was the one used by Lewis Hamilton in last year Singapore GP.

I always clean the watch before the pics, but I always forget to check if they are really clean. The dust was in the outside . As always, I noticed that after I took the pictures and saved them, and I am too lazy to do all over again.

strattakan Posted March 2, 2009 Report Posted March 2, 2009 Is just me or it looks always better in the wrist than alone in the picture?
Maxim Posted March 2, 2009 Report Posted March 2, 2009 Is just me or it looks always better in the wrist than alone in the picture? Concurred
morlock Posted March 2, 2009 Author Report Posted March 2, 2009 Is just me or it looks always better in the wrist than alone in the picture? Yes, it looks much better in the wrist. And it's even better in person than in photos.
By-Tor Posted March 2, 2009 Report Posted March 2, 2009 A watch that large looks surprisingly good on Hamilton, considering how small guy he is. All F1 drivers are very small and skinny little fellows... for a good reason. However their wrists might be thicker in relation as driving those monsters 320 km/h can probably develop your forearms... at least a little bit. I agree, it's very good looking watch.
fitipaldi2 Posted March 7, 2009 Report Posted March 7, 2009 Hi, I'm very interested in the Grand Carrera brown dial with leather strap: I checked Tag website but this model wasn't there. Is it a fantasy version? thanks

Is it a fantasy version? thanks The brown version is not fantasy, it's new. You could see it at the TH Catalog in their web site HERE. There is a brown dial rose gold pics.
