We need this repped.

No way. Take a look at the watch as it has a minute repeater. It will be the last complication function successfully replicated by the rep factories.
I am very positive that no factory can make a minute repeater mechanism in its reps in the next 10 years in an acceptable price range. Actually I will be the first to buy any DHgate or Aliexpress quality rep they make as long as they manage to get the minute repeater right.

I like that it has a matching carbon bracelet. That seems overlooked by most other brands/watches. Except maybe Panerai.

Indeed!! Cool looking watch.

I disagree; I think this watch looks terrible. It's as if someone took it straight out of the 3d printer. What's up with the striations on the case and the cutouts for the hour markers on the dial? It's literally like the watch I 3d printed a number of years back. The case looks horrendously unfinished and unrefined.

Sorry, did panerai have or have carbon bracelets?
As far as I remember, all the models from the carbotec went on rubber. There is a ceramic bracelet, but you won’t surprise anyone now ...

This one should be impossible to replicate ... unfortunately.

I know this is an older thread, but since there's a newer (non minute repeater) carbon version released last year I'm interested to hear thoughts about getting a rep for this beauty at some point. Was able to try one on today and was blown away by how light/thin it is and how unique the carbon pattern is with the contrasting gold elements.

A man can dream, right? For now, might have to go the titanium route if still available via TDs...

I certainly hope so. I would totally get an all carbon with bracelet watch and I like the rose gold versions you posted.
