Hi all, just placed an order for a SOSF V2 from Trevor few days ago and the QC pics just arrived. I was just wondering if the screws on the bezel of a rep can be tightened or is it just for decoration? Its my first Breitling rep!

I've gone through several threads and found out that the screws on the reps are just for ornamental purposes. But the screws on the QC photos show that there might be a gap, or they might be shadows. What are your advices?

I'd gladly appreciate your inputs on this! Thank you!

Thanks for the comments guys. I really appreciate it. Hmm, by the way.. The lume seems to look a bit funny. Will try to ask him for a front dial shot.

Your first shot is front dial and line looks good. You are probably seeing reflections on one side of the marker surrounds

Hi Devedander, indeed it is only the reflection caused by the chrome marker surrounds. Asked Trevor to provide me with a full frontal shot. And immediately gave the green light for delivery.

By the way, does the black dial sometimes look like shades of blue under certain lighting conditions?

The AR coating on the gen crystal imparts a noticeable blue tint to the dial. Apparently so does this rep. Like I said, it's darn good, IMO.

Hi tommy_boy, thanks for the suggestion and advice. Yes, the TD has already confirmed that it's a black dial. And should be sent out by tomorrow. Can't wait!!

Once again thanks for your advice. I really appreciate it. Would post up photos as soon as I can.

Once you have this in your hand you will love it. I have the white dial version and it's absolutely beautiful. The AR, lume, and over all construction is top notch. Wear it well!

Thanks man! I really can't wait to get it sized and on my wrist! Guess the watch is still in China though, still awaiting my EMS tracking number from our TD here!

Here comes the excruciating pain of waiting. hehe.
