UmpaHimself 222 Posted July 23, 2012 Hey guys, It came this morning. I was so happy, I definitely thought Tuesday at least if not Wed or Thurs but here it is, early Monday morning along with my Father's PO identical to mine and a LV wallet I asked Mary to get for me. Watch looks amazing. The face is beautiful and the PVD is very nice. The green lume glows much brighter than the blue unfortunately. Also the band is pretty lightweight and kind of clanky. It's supposed to have a clone ETA but the movement isn't as smooth as I would have expected. The sweep is almost identical to the high beat asian movement in my PO =/ All in all I'm very happy and the collection is growing. BTW I'm testing out a new camera today. My Mother gave me her old Cannon 20D DSLR to play around with but there is definitely a learning curve. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HWG 11 Posted July 23, 2012 Looks good Umpa, and for first go round with DSLR, I'd say you are off to a fine start. Congrats on the new pick ups! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UmpaHimself 222 Posted July 23, 2012 From what I can gather the only major flaw on the face is the spelling of "PRO-HUNTER" when I believe it should be "PROHUNTER". Also there was a single scratch on the bottom end link. Kind of a bummer but oh well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UmpaHimself 222 Posted July 23, 2012 Thanks guys! Looks good Umpa, and for first go round with DSLR, I'd say you are off to a fine start. Congrats on the new pick ups! Yeah I had to bust out the tripod and everything. I was taking the shots in my bathroom and the stupid flash kept reflecting off the mirror and on to the granite :( even with the diffuser I had on the flash. I need a better spot to shoot.

czmilosz 0 Posted July 23, 2012 Nice pictures Umpa! I'm interested to see how you like the movement over time. I had a non-PVD A21J a while ago and really liked it except for the sweep. I'd like to eventually pick up another with a smooth sweep. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
