Had anyone bought the new version yet? I'm thinking about pulling the trigger.

I have made bitcoin purchase on puretime for OXF Santos Dumont 27.5mm on July 3. Shuang has replied and confirmed purchase waiting on qc pictures. This watch is indeed beautiful lovely gift for a special someone. Rep vs Gen from pictures I have and Gen specification there may be a very small size difference in the larger dumont 31.4mm gen vs rep 32mm but that's why I bought 27.5mm because it's as close to authentic size if not exact.

I just received QC PICTURE for OXF Dumont I will upload pictures, finding it hard to do on forum so I'll post a link to view. The overall aesthetics of the watch is perfect from logo engraving to sunburst dial lume. Shipping may take up to 2 weeks but it's worth the wait for such a gift.

Cartier Santos 27.5mm OXF came with warranty card. Just received my Dumont rep today which I order from TD. The difference is very small but I don't have Gen to compare it's seems the hand adjustment blue crystal a bit duller than the Gen. But overall elegant, sports watch for those special occasions.

RWI refuse to let post my picture so I'll just post a link PM

Did you end up receiving this watch? If so, would be good to see what it looks like on the wrist along with your thoughts on the overall quality!

In transit. QC on another watch I bought as part of the same order took a while. I'll update when I get the watch.

Anyone know if a rep of the Santos Dumont XL is in the works?

32mm RG arrived. Actual measurements are 31.6mm wide, and 43.2mm lug to lug. 7.55mm thick. The lug width is 17.7mm or 17.6mm depending on which side you measure, which makes the straps I bought a very tight fit.

Dial printing is clear, and slightly raised like lacquer as it should be. The strap is comes with is the typical plastic feeling leather you expect. On top of that the punched holes don't go far in, so I can't get a good fit on my 6" wrist despite the modest proportions of the watch.

Overall, I like it.
