Member X Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 (edited) Finally, pics are here! Apologies for the modem killer size/amount... lol Really should have cleaned it properly lol The AR is pretty good and lets the markers shine through It's not perfect though, as you can see here: Can you see the subdial misprint? Look a little closer: It seems that all the pics that have been posted of the white faced model are like this, and the one I was sent photos of before this one was slightly worse, fading out completely round the bottom. It doesn't seem to be a problem with the black faced ones, if Lani's pics earlier are an indication of what they're all like. Also, I only just noticed it when looking super close before bed but I have a couple of numerals not fully pressed into the dial, namely the 2 in 12 and the 0 in 10: It's not noticeable at all on the wrist though, so it's not really a worry. Well, unless they fall out... lol Overall I recommend them highly The way it changes from white face and silver markers to gold face and gold markers is pretty cool! Hope you like!

nicewatches Posted August 15, 2009 Report Share Posted August 15, 2009 Awesome post with awesome pictures. Enjoy this watch - I have slowly been letting it collect dust on my table since I got a new Tag Heuer but that will change as I've got some business meetings beginning this Monday. Gotta show this baby off! Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member X Posted August 17, 2009 Report Share Posted August 17, 2009 My only hesitancy is down to the gen being worth so much, therefore you're going to look minted! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erwinner Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 I do like this a lot, but I still can't get the 3714 out of my head... lol As I found myself not the Chrono type of guye, I've got a portuguese chrono up for trades so if you're interested we can do a swap?

AllAboutMe Posted September 13, 2009 Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 Anyone know what size strap this watch takes? At the lugs? For the buckle? Great looking watch! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member X Posted November 16, 2009 Report Share Posted November 16, 2009 I think it's a 20/18 but I haven't got it on today so will have to check! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest techlogik Posted November 20, 2009 Report Share Posted November 20, 2009 What is the misprint? I can't figure it out... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spooky driver Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 i think it's the way the circumference paint fades at the bottom of the sub dial Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eunomians Posted December 27, 2009 Report Share Posted December 27, 2009 Now there is a V2 of this watch. Different movement, crappier dial. It's still a nice watch, but the new dial numbers are totally wrong compared to V1 (which was closer to gen). Also, the 'IWC Schaffausen' font on V2 is too big.
