So the dealer sent me some pictures before sending so I will post those along with a wrist shot from my blackberry.

And the wrist shot.

I really like the watch, it is really well made. Two little imperfections are the loose crown lever. If anyone knows how to tighten that, that would be greatly appreciated. Also There is a slight indentation at the 12 o'clock hour marker though it is not that noticeable and the second hand of the chronograph takes your attention away from it.

Very nice sir. :) I do know that Rex450 had a fix for this lever condition. But I don't think he is doing projects like this. I bet if you contact Katt he can fix it. If I remember correctly, they just need a tighter spring.

thanks I will talk to Katt. I think I will let it have some wrist time before I send it away. Probably will wait at least until my APROO comes back from vac before I send another watch away.

Sorry for the bad quality, I only have a camera on my blackberry. But it doesn't feel or look that much bigger than the 44mm panerai.

Very nice braun, and thanks for the side-by-side.

I love the Grahams (like Tommy-Boy said, they look weapon-like) but I've always been turned off by them because a) they are HUGE and b) because of their 'goofy' crown placement. Your pics, however, almost have me convinced I could pull this off.

Congrats on your new acquisition, and wear it well!

Whenever I see one of these, I just want to pull the pin and yell "Cover!!" :)

It's a heckuva piece. Congrats!

Great choice, one of the best reps out there period!
braungeo123 send me a mail with your addie and will send along a spacer (washer) & info that took me less than a minute to install without removing the lever, works great.

One more pic of a nice rep.

Great photos. Mine is en route from Angus/PT and I'm getting excited. I had a hard time deciding between this one and the Scarab, but the carbon fiber dial ultimately made me choose this one over the Scarab.

Angus shipped mine on the 26th, within a couple days of the order. It left China on Feb 28th but no tracking updates since... I'm jonesing for it so hope it shows up soon. Haven't been this excited for a rep in quite a while!
