How hard was is to buff out the Parnis logo? The rep strap looks just like it is they aren't going to engrave it.

Hello,

I more actuve on Repgeek, but your post kept my attention. So Puretime will probably have two different batch of this watch. Do you know if tne lume can bedifferent from time to other. I kmow they had trouble sometime with v2 lume. On some site they even have a v3, but I think it's more smoke and miror...

I actually did not receive any qc yet , apparently the watch is out of stock , pending new stock

^^^ Strap isn't very good but the buckle will make a nice touch for a gunny strap and or strap of your choice.

The strap is pretty far from gen but the deployant is probably worth it alone. Angus has the strap/deployant listed as a separate item now for $60 and the watch, bracelet and strap/deployant listed for $338 which is the same price he has for the blue and black without the strap, so the strap/deployant is still "free" even though he lists it with the strap and the bracelet being free now, don't know how long that will last.

Why on earth would they not use the correct colour stitching????????

I know right, you would think these guys have the availability to thread color that could match the gens more closely.

i have to say the buckle is the grand prize here although the size of the tudor wording on the clasp is slightly over sized, kinda makes me wonder if they really copied from gen strap or pictures.

Either way the leather is going in the trash and buckles mounted to my gunny bb series straps for blue and red and hopefully another gen soon.

The rep strap is quite disappointing from the photos. Doesn't have the cracked look like the gen, and the thread stitching isn't even the same color. Sigh

Received the watch and strap today , overall the leather strap is quite crap , feels like cardboard .

the claps is quite loose and requires some adjustment/tighten in order for the buckle to clip securely . Wouldn't pay money for it .

After handling both ten and rep straps the rep is for sure junk, and not worth the money.

Had hoped the clasp/buckle would be a jewel, however, it has a very cheap and flimsy feel and not what we would expect given the quality of current BB reps.

Oh, and one of the two watches I ordered is f***ed up.... Keyless is jammed up and the crown doesn't screw all the way :(

No worries guys, sending it state side to a top notch member and I know he will take care of the issue.

Hope my gunny straps and gen inserts are in soon, will update progress with some pics soon.

Worst possible news. I am waiting on qc photos. I think I will tell them to forget it and instead buy the noob 364.
