Thanks. Trust me you won't be disappointed. That watch really feels like an expensive watch, and it's really beautiful, one of my top 5 reps
Did yours come from WBK? How was the lume?There is a version with the correct datewheel, cheaper but not as good. Stan offered me one but I went for the more expensive version.
The wrong datewheel is indeed a major issue but apart from that, it is an impressive rep. I had the Gen in my hands next to the rep and if you don't know the correct datewheel order, you can't guess it's a rep. Impossible.
I agree that it wears quite big, which was at first quite disappointing for me. I ordered the watch after seeing 42mm on puretime, and it wears bigger than some of my 44mm Breitlings.
Yes and I find the links too wide and too large, especially the last link before the end link. I can't even adjust the bracelet to my exact size. One more link and it's much too large, one less and it feels tight. Only very large links and no clasp adjustment is a shame.
For me that picture is a proof that it wears big. Not too big on your wrist a you seem to have a decent wrist size, but still quite large.
I can't wear it with a t shirt because of my small 6.7 wrist, I need to have a french cuff shirt to make it look good.
Check with WBK
I bought it from Puretime.
This is the version I bought : http://www.intime.co/cartier/2304-c...lack-dial-on-ss-bracelet-miyota-movement.html
Lume is good, but the lume surface is small, there are no lume markers on the Roman numbers. Lume is applied on the circle around the second hand, on the hands.
See for yourself
Thanks mate.. i saw the lume quite nice..I bought it from Puretime.

Lately a lot of celebrities use calibre de cartier.. this must be something..
Have any of your colleagues compliment it?
To me, it seems that this watch is really underrated, both the gen and the rep. I haven't see anyone else wear this model but a few people did compliment it when they saw it. They were all women. French Women like Cartier lol.
The non-diver calibre is also really nice, as a dress watch, on leather.
Yeah mate must be something with the france brand.. womanizer watch eh?
I have seen the non diver but unfortunately the factories have updated the version.. i think the quality is lower than the diver
It should not be so complex to have numbers sorted counter clock wise rather than clock wise.
I dont understand why this mistake has not been corrected yet.
I would buy one without hesitation would it be the case

Same here. It's been a long wait thus far. I won't pull the trigger with that DW always staring me in the face.

This watch would be too big for my wrist. U guys who have the smaller wrist like me should know the feeling when u see a big watch on your wrist. Its just an unpleasant feeling to have. Im not into round cartier watches anyway
Maybe this, new release in blue
Correct datewheel too
