nickee_2dS 0 Posted May 26, 2011 Hello guys! RM88 sent me the link of the QC pictures. It seems to me that the notches aren't spaced correctly (have irregular distances). What do you think? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KeNnY 29 Posted May 26, 2011 I think it looks great, and I would be very happy with that watch Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JohnG 41 Posted May 26, 2011 He's right, but you will never notice it without a magnifying glasss, don't worry about it. It will be the same on all the watches, since it is a dial design issue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Takken 0 Posted May 26, 2011 Ohhhhhh mighty HELL, looks like a disaster!!! Must be the worst version Breitling I have ever seen in the last 10 years - Just hand the watch over to me and I will terminate it for you :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Member X 91 Posted May 26, 2011 lol I think the consensus is it is a flaw that is too minor to notice on the wrist :P Given they are, what, half a mm apart? If anyone can see that from 4 feet away while you're moving your hands about and talking, they've got better eyes than most... Accept it, accept the flaw (all reps have at least one, it's part of the charm! :P) and enjoy it for being a great value piece that looks lovely :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
narikaa 129 Posted May 26, 2011 Its a subliminal barcode Flip it under the supermarket checkout scanner and you get a big discount . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wimpie007 108 Posted May 26, 2011 (edited) OMG! Nitpicking over a few lines, i would be more concerned with the movement, datefont, wrong pushers and weight of the watch This is a Quartz! Edited May 26, 2011 by wimpie007 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mulder 0 Posted May 26, 2011 Blow any photo up to that of virtually any watch and it will look to have something wrong. Be happy with it or :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ska 11 Posted May 26, 2011 Its NOT a design flaw! The slide rule is intentionally divided irregularly to allow for different calculations to be made. Here's the gen For those REALLY interested here's a link to the original Navitimer Manual, which shows how every calculation required for making a flight plan can be accomplished with the slide-rule. http://www.chronomaddox.com/breitling/Inst...ions.html#Cover I know the OP is a noob - but seriously - did he not even google a pic of the gen to compare??

narikaa 129 Posted May 26, 2011 Sorry But even my tired ole eyes can see that the rep's print aint as purrdy as the gen's But in fairness the O.P. is just a product of the rep fora credo... 'See a photo of a rep and pick holes in it' . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

'See a photo of a rep and pick holes in it' . Very true - but I think given the subdial spacing its not really the flaw i'd pick on is it? I mean those markers are so tiny we're getting into "Crispness of Dial Printing" territory rather than a real innacuracy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Frankly its all bollocks in my book Right down to the imagined nonsense of any one pre flighting twiddling about with a watch (I have a pilots licence). .

powderfreak 0 Posted May 26, 2011 This is a Quartz! Yep, so I would not care about any flaws. It's just a sweet and reliable watch. Chances are that nobody ever notices it's a Breitling, so why bother... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rav747 0 Posted May 27, 2011 (edited) If this watch is a quartz, then this is a hilarious thread. Guess someone missed the memo about qc pics Edited May 27, 2011 by Rav747 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
