GenTLe 1,501 Posted November 11, 2017 So, I paid right now for this beauty here (example QC pic from TrustyTime site, NOT my QC pic that I haven't received yet): from http://www.qcpics.com/index.php/BSW0344B/DSCN9444 http://www.ttw-1388.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=16_137&products_id=17673 The genuine movement of this beast is the Breitling Cal 17: Looking at the pictures of these ones on rep seller sites, I see this (pic of the DLC one, but also the one I chose is the same): What let me think something is changed is the Incabloc spring instead of the commonly used Novodiac: instead of The other one that used the Incabloc was the infamous "POS" movement, but this is not that one as the click is where it should be and not on the ratchet well as on the POS. Anyway when it will arrive I'll give it a proper check. I hope this movement will be as good as the other Asian Eta clones that I've Cheers, GenTLe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The date is not 100% centered, but still good. This is very frequent on the breitling anyway due to very small date window. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Foxindebox 464 Posted November 26, 2017 Awesome. I’m looking forward to getting this one, always fancied a yellow watch Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’m looking forward to getting this one, always fancied a yellow watch LOL, they messed up and shipped it with DHL (while I asked and paid only 14$ for China AirMail). It got picked up Friday morning (HK Time) and has been delivered TODAY at 12.30 PM It looks amazing, but I was in rush to go to work so didn't lose time to really check it deeply. I'll need to rotate a bit the dial to center it with the date and with the case, that should be it. I LOVE the yellow of this dial: its really a "solid" yellow, and I MUCH prefer it to the old more fainted yellow model. Where's Fluffy now??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
