cala1981 0 Posted September 4, 2012 (edited) I've been on the search for a blue watch. Everyone seems to love the SOH v2 and I think they are a little plain... I think the Blackbird is a bit more visually appealing but I have read that the seconds dial being at 3 o'clock on a 7750 is bad news. How bad is this? Is it a deal killer? Any opinions or advice would be appreciated. Blackbird: http://asiakrono.com...ngswiss_185.htm The Hublot Big Bang in blue may be too much, but an interesting watch: http://asiakrono.com...otswiss_373.htm Thanks!

Cynikal.Mindset 1 Posted September 4, 2012 (edited) its seconds @3 and the big date complication that makes its a little "time-bombish" other than that its a fantastic looking watch and in general work pretty well but they will need a service sooner than a normal seconds @9 7750 watch. If you like it buy it from a dealer that will stand behind their sale and help you out if the need arises and in the mean time save up 150-200bux for the service it will require in the future. oh and loctite the bezel marker screws in when you get it (if you do) as they have a tendency to fall out and be lost forever. P.S. Lawrence (asiakrono) has the best warranty in the game Edited September 4, 2012 by Cynikal.Mindset Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
