"crazy sale" watches arrived, watch the mailbox for yours

Recommended Posts

When you guys are ready for some better straps besides that ebay stuff (KENNY!!) you know where to find me. ;)

 

 

My watches arrived. The Breitling (going to a friend) is nicer than I expected. The pam is about what I'd expected, a great value and fun for the money. The lume seems to be damn good, too. Surprising!

Just got mine. I went with black straps on both. Wow, just wow for $178!!! $119 Breitling is super heavy. Feel like I paid $5 per pound = cheaper than steak. Dial is incredible (fantasy or no fantasy I could care less), but lume is a little weak. A7750 movement is da' beans, gotta love sweeping seconds (sure beats sloppy seconds). $59 Pam is good fun. Could the date wheel be anymore sunken....doubtful. The lume here though is simply just incredible. I'm a sucker for glassback cases so this one does push a few of my buttons. The pens..........hilarious, but at these price absolutely no complaints on my end. Very interested in seeing what strap Serge comes up with for the Breit.

my thoughts exactly on the pens! I didn't even mention them because of that.

 

Are all of the pen reps that cheap feeling? They're lighter than a mechanical pencil

The Breit' appears to use the same bezel at the SOSF.

Lower left you see the A7750 Breit and the SOSF. Here's a closer shot. Identically sized bezel.

Dial is incredible (fantasy or no fantasy I could care less)

 

I thought this as well, turns out it is a Chrono Avenger. It's a real dial, later version I believe, around 2007 or so.

That's a titanium model, but you're right that looks like what it is

From what I searched as well, I couldn't find a steel version. It seems to be only a Titanium model

Wish I'd bought 2 now. Also wish they'd had a white one. Much more "wearable" than my two skyland avengers.

Also got my pair earlier this week. Couldn't be happier - for the price.

 

How is the GMT hand working for others? The GTM hand on my PAM appears to move half an hour for every hour. Is this as intended with this movement? I tried searching for problems with GMT Pams and this movement but had no luck...

 

Other than this, I am chuffed :)

it's a GMT @ 24 hand so 1 hour = 1/2 move on the GMT hand. 6=12 etc

Ah yes, now you mention it I suppose that makes sense! Thanks. So all good then. Bit of a Doh moment there :)

 

I have to say, for the money I think these two were a good deal. For me they were really a test as these are almost my first reps (besides a fiddy and PAM 326).

They're bloody great watches, if anyone who bought them says they're rubish, I just have to wonder what they could have expected for $50.

 

And, $120 for 7750? That's almost how much it costs to buy the movement alone.

 

I wonder what then next of the "crazy sales" will be, apparently there's been a few in the past.

For the many amongst us who gave in to temptation with Tony7750's recent sale, mine arrived today, here's a sneak peak as to what awaits you.

 

I don't want to argue or fuss with you over this, but something here isn't right... It could be my post-drunken, early morning hazy eyes that didn't completely read the thread. Perhaps you've already seen this wrote about it.

 

And it could be a trick of the light as well...
