I've just seen this pop up on a non TD site. From a quick browse around old TD ads especially Trusty I think this is the first Bathyscaphe chronograph rep.
Initially I thought it looked good and that dial colour is always going to draw me in, but there are a few flaws:
Case is not ceramic like gen
Bezel colour looks too light
Date wheel background looks black but should be dark green
Date font is incorrect
Out of these I can overlook all of them except for the case material. I love the way this looks with the ceramic case like the Mokarran model. Unfortunately this is too much of a deal breaker for me.
It's made by JBF who are known for their tourbillion models and from previous reviews that I've read are made to quite a high standard. Here's hoping they release the ceramic case model too.
